I. Overview
FTA is updating its Title VI Circular,
last revised in 2007, to clarify what
recipients must do to comply with the
U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) Title VI regulations. This notice
provides a summary of changes to FTA
Circular 4702.1A, ‘‘Title VI and Title
VI—Dependent Guidelines for FTA
Recipients,’’ addresses comments
received in response to the September
29, 2011, Federal Register notice (76 FR
60593), and provides information
regarding implementation of the final
Circular. The final Circular, 4702.1B,
‘‘Title VI Requirements and Guidelines
for Federal Transit Administration
Recipients’’ becomes effective on
October 1, 2012, and supersedes FTA
Circular 4702.1A.
FTA conducted extensive outreach
related to the proposed circular. FTA
sponsored Information Sessions in five
cities around the country regarding the
proposed revisions to the Title VI
Circular and proposed a new
Environmental Justice Circular (see
docket FTA–2011–0055 for more
information on the proposed and final
Environmental Justice Circular). The
meetings provided a forum for FTA staff
to make presentations about the two
proposed circulars and allowed
attendees an opportunity to ask
clarifying questions. In addition, FTA
participated in various conferences
occurring in October and November
2011, and hosted several webinars. FTA
received approximately 117 written
comments to the docket related to the
proposed Title VI Circular from
providers of public transportation, State
Departments of Transportation,
advocacy groups, individuals,
metropolitan planning organizations,
and transit industry groups. Some
comments were submitted on behalf of
multiple entities.
