<br /> Federal land or property at below market value,Federal training,a loan of Federal personnel,subsidies, and other
<br /> arrangements with the intention of providing assistance.Federal financial assistance does not encompass contracts of
<br /> guarantee or insurance,regulated programs,licenses,procurement contracts by the Federal government at market
<br /> value,or programs that provide direct benefits.
<br /> The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 provides that the provisions of the assurances apply to all of the operations of
<br /> the Subrecipient's program(s)and activity(ies),so long as any portion of the Subrecipient's program(s)or activity(ies)is
<br /> federally assisted in the manner prescribed above
<br /> The Subrecipient certifies the following:
<br /> 1. The Subrecipient ensures its current and future compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,as amended,
<br /> which prohibits exclusion from participation,denial of the benefits of,or subjection to discrimination under
<br /> programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance,of any person in the United States on the ground of
<br /> race,color,or national origin(42 U.S.C.§2000d et seq.),as implemented by the Department of the Treasury Title VI
<br /> regulations at 31 CFR Part 22 and other pertinent executive orders such as Executive Order 13166,directives,
<br /> circulars,policies,memoranda,and/or guidance documents.
<br /> 2. The Subrecipient acknowledges that Executive Order 13166, "Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited
<br /> English Proficiency,"seeks to improve access to federally assisted programs and activities for individuals who,
<br /> because of national origin,have Limited English proficiency(LEP).The Subrecipient understands that denying a
<br /> person access to its programs,services,and activities because of LEP is a form of national origin discrimination
<br /> prohibited under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Department of the Treasury's implementing
<br /> regulations.Accordingly,the Subrecipient shall initiate reasonable steps,or comply with the Department of the
<br /> Treasury's directives,to ensure that LEP persons have meaningful access to its programs,services,and activities.The
<br /> Subrecipient understands and agrees that meaningful access may entail providing language assistance services,
<br /> including oral interpretation and written translation where necessary,to ensure effective communication in the
<br /> Subrecipient's programs,services,and activities.
<br /> 3. The Subrecipient agrees to consider the need for language services for LEP persons when the Subrecipient develops
<br /> applicable budgets and conducts programs,services,and activities.As a resource,the Department of the Treasury
<br /> has published its LEP guidance at 70 FR 6067. For more information on taking reasonable steps to provide
<br /> meaningful access for LEP persons,please visit http://www.lep.gov.
<br /> 4. The Subrecipient acknowledges and agrees that compliance with the assurances constitutes a condition of continued
<br /> receipt of federal financial assistance and is binding upon the Subrecipient and its successors,transferees,and
<br /> assignees for the period in which such assistance is provided.
<br /> 5. The Subrecipient shall comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,which prohibits recipients of federal
<br /> financial assistance from excluding from a program or activity,denying benefits of,or otherwise discriminating
<br /> against a person on the basis of race,color,or national origin(42 U.S.C.§2000d et seq.),as implemented by the
<br /> Department of the Treasury's Title VI regulations,31 CFR Part 22,which are herein incorporated by reference and
<br /> made a part of this contract(or agreement).Title VI also includes protection to persons with "Limited English
<br /> Proficiency" in any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance,42 U.S.C. §2000d et seq.,as
<br /> implemented by the Department of the Treasury's Title VI regulations,31 CFR Part 22,and herein incorporated by
<br /> reference and made a part of this contract or agreement.
