The rules stated in this section are limited by the exceptions contained in §§23.13 and 23.14.
For purposes of §§23.13 and 23.14, the terms “normal operation” and “statutory objective” shall have the following meaning:
A recipient is permitted to take an action, otherwise prohibited by §23.11, if the action reasonably takes into account age as a factor necessary to the normal operation or the achievement of any statutory objective of a program or activity. An action reasonably takes into account age as a factor necessary to the normal operation or the achievement of any statutory objective of a program or activity, if:
A recipient is permitted to take an action otherwise prohibited by §23.11 that is based on a factor other than age, even though that action may have a disproportionate effect on persons of different ages. An action may be based on a factor other than age only if the factor bears a direct and substantial relationship to the normal operation of the program or activity or to the achievement of a statutory objective.
The burden of proving that an age distinction or other action falls within the exceptions outlined in §§23.13 and 23.14 is on the recipient of Federal financial assistance.
If a recipient's operation of a program or activity provides special benefits to the elderly or to children, such use of age distinctions shall be presumed to be necessary to the normal operation of the program or activity, notwithstanding the provisions of §23.13.
Any age distinctions contained in a rule or regulation issued by Treasury shall be presumed to be necessary to the achievement of a statutory objective of the program or activity to which the rule or regulation applies, notwithstanding the provisions of §23.13.
(b) Recipient assessment of age distinctions. (1) As part of a compliance review under §23.41 or a complaint investigation under §23.44, Treasury may require a recipient employing the equivalent of 15 or more employees to complete a written self-evaluation, in a manner specified by the responsible Department official, of any age distinction imposed in its program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance from Treasury to assess the recipient's compliance with the Act.
(b) If a compliance review or pre-award review indicates a violation of the Act or these regulations, Treasury will attempt to achieve voluntary compliance. If voluntary compliance cannot be achieved, Treasury will arrange for enforcement as described in §23.46.
(b) Formal investigation. If Treasury cannot resolve the complaint through informal investigation, it will begin to develop formal findings through further investigation of the complaint. If the investigation indicates a violation of these regulations, Treasury will attempt to obtain voluntary compliance. If Treasury cannot obtain voluntary compliance, it will begin enforcement as described in §23.46
(1) The Secretary has advised the recipient of its failure to comply with theAct and these regulations and has determined that voluntary compliance cannot be obtained.
