and services for persons with limited 

English proficiency; and 

11. Whether applicant/recipient has a 

plan to ensure Federal civil rights 

compliance in subrecipient programs, if 

any, including subrecipient compliance 

reviews. 

II. Compliance Reviews 

NHTSA must also conduct periodic 

compliance reviews of its recipients. 

See 49 CFR 21.11(a); 49 CFR 25.605; 49 

CFR 27.123(a); see also 45 CFR 90.42(a). 

Post-award reviews are conducted as 

desk audits and/or on-site visits. 

Because the review may cover all or a 

portion of the recipient’s compliance 

with specific Federal civil rights laws, 

the scope of a review is defined on a 

case-by-case basis. NHTSA may 

summarize the results of the review in 

a draft compliance report, which will 

include findings of no deficiency (no 

corrective action necessary), findings of 

deficiency (corrective action required), 

and advisory comments, as appropriate. 

If findings of deficiency remain in the 

final compliance report, the recipient 

will be required to take corrective 

action, develop a timeline for 

compliance, and report its progress. 

NHTSA requests comments and 

responses to the following questions: 

1. What factors should NHTSA 

consider in developing a compliance 

timeline for a finding of deficiency? 

2. Is there a minimum time period for 

which NHTSA should monitor a 

recipient after a finding of deficiency? 

3. How frequently should NHTSA 

require progress reports from a recipient 

who is undertaking corrective action 

following a finding of deficiency. 

III. Implementation and Additional 

Considerations 

1. What promising practices are 

NHTSA recipients—larger and smaller 

recipients, and national organizations— 

using to: 

a. Engage traditionally underserved 

communities, and how is the 

effectiveness assessed? 

b. Review policies and practices to 

ensure that programs and activities do 

not result in disparate impacts based on 

race, color, national origin (including 

limited English proficiency), disability, 

age, or sex? 

c. Ensure that individuals and 

communities with limited English 

proficiency have meaningful access to 

the recipient’s programs and activities? 

d. Ensure effective communication 

with individuals with communicationrelated disabilities (e.g., visual, 

auditory)? 

e. Ensure that facilities are free from 

physical barriers to access for 

individuals with disabilities? 

f. Ensure that subrecipients comply 

with Federal civil rights laws? 

2. What factors should NHTSA 

consider when tailoring compliance 

information, requirements, and 

guidelines to each recipient type (e.g., 

type of funding, award size)? 

3. Should NHTSA require and collect 

any additional pre-award Federal civil 

rights compliance information not 

discussed above or included in 

applicable funding notices prior to 

awarding FFA? If so, what is that 

information and how should NHTSA 

collect it? 

4. What considerations and 

benchmarks (e.g., formula grant 

application deadlines, budgetary 

phases) should NHTSA incorporate into 

the implementation timeline for its 

Nondiscrimination Guidelines? 

5. What specific subject matter 

technical assistance and trainings would 

help to ensure that recipients fulfill 

their Federal civil rights obligations? 

6. What additional supports (e.g., 

webinars, internet-accessible 

information on NHTSA’s web page, 

subject-specific resource lists, 

factsheets, checklists, templates, sample 

notices and forms, illustrative analysis) 

will assist applicants and recipients in 

fulfilling the requirements of NHTSA’s 

proposed Nondiscrimination 

Guidelines? 

The information collection described 

in this RFC is necessary to successfully 

maintain a robust and meaningful civil 

rights compliance program. NHTSA 

welcomes any additional feedback 

related to Federal civil rights 

compliance and NHTSA’s forthcoming 

Nondiscrimination Guidelines, 

including topics not specifically 

referenced above. NHTSA invites 

comments regarding the time burden 

and costs of proposed data collections. 

All interested parties are encouraged 

to respond to this RFC. Submissions are 

strictly voluntary. Individuals or entities 

responding to this RFC should state 

their role as well as knowledge of and 

experience with Federal civil rights 

compliance and community 

engagement. NHTSA may request 

additional clarifying information from 

any or all respondents. If a respondent 

does not wish to be contacted by 

NHTSA for additional information, it 

should include a corresponding 

statement to that effect in the response. 

All information submitted should be 

unclassified and should not contain 

proprietary information. Although 

NHTSA will review and consider all 

responses to this RFC, NHTSA will not 

officially respond to the information 

received.

Background: The Defense Production

The Secretary of Transportation has the 

delegated authority for all forms of civil 

transportation. DOT’s final rule, 

Transportation Priorities and Allocation

2012, requires this information 

collection. Form OST F 1254, Request

applicants, such as transportation 

companies or organizations.

6 respondents.

average burden of 30 minutes per 

respondent for an estimated total annual 

burden of 3 hours. 

Public Comments Invited: You are

information collection, including (a) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the 

Department’s performance; (b) the 

accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) 

ways for the Department to enhance the 

quality, utility and clarity of the

comments in the request for OMB’s 

clearance of this information collection.
