Title VI Program - Draft Ms. Williams explained that The Federal Transit Administration requires recipients to report certain general information to determine compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The collection and reporting of this information constitutes a recipient’s Title VI Program. To ensure compliance with 49 CFR Section 21.9 (b), the FTA requires that all recipients document their compliance with this chapter by submitting a Title VI Program to the FTA’s regional civil rights officer once every three years. As subrecipients, the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization submits the information contained in this plan to their primary recipient, MoDOT, on a schedule to be determined by the primary recipient, and is to be included as part of their Title VI Program.
