Civil Rights

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) prohibits discrimination and ensures equal opportunity and access for persons with disabilities. The Regulatory Compliance and Civil Rights Officer (RCCRO) assists in compliance oversight under ADA federal regulations 49 CFR Parts 27, 37, 38 and 39. This includes ensuring that ADA guidelines are consistently followed and applied.

The Federal Transit Laws, 49 U.S.C. 5332(b), provides that “no person in the United States shall on the grounds of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, or age be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any project, program or activity funded in whole or in part through financial assistance under this Act.”  This applies to employment and business opportunities and is considered to be in addition to the provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The Regulatory Compliance and Civil Rights Officer (RCCRO) assists in the compliance oversight for LBT’s EEO Program in accordance with FTA requirements under FTA EEO Circular ( 4704.1A), also see LBT’s EEO policy statement.

For questions regarding compliance, contact LBT’s EEO officer at 562.489.8476 or contact us.

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act Title VI, 42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq, was enacted as part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.

Compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a federal mandate for all agencies providing public services. Title VI applies to all aspects of the services provided by LBT, which are required to be provided without regard to race, color or national origin. In addition, agencies must also comply with Executive Order 13166, “Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency.”

LBT has a Title VI Steering Committee (headed by the Title VI officer), comprised of agency department stakeholders and works to integrate program requirements when implementing fare and service changes, as well as any other areas requiring Title VI compliance.
