 CHAPTER I--FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
 
PART 230--EXTERNAL PROGRAMS--Table of Contents
 
   Subpart A--Equal Employment Opportunity on Federal and Federal-Aid 
         Construction Contracts (Including Supportive Services)
 
Sec. 230.107  Policy.

    (a) Direct Federal and Federal-aid highway construction projects. It 
is the policy of the FHWA to require that all direct Federal and 
Federal-aid highway construction contracts include the same specific 
equal employment opportunity requirements. It is also the policy to 
require that all direct Federal and Federal-aid highway construction 
subcontracts of $10,000 or more (not including contracts for supplying 
materials) include these same requirements.
    (b) Federal-aid highway construction projects. It is the policy of 
the FHWA to require full utilization of all available training and 
skill-improvement opportunities to assure the increased participation of 
minority groups and disadvantaged persons and women in all phases of the 
highway construction industry. Moreover, it is the policy of the Federal 
Highway Administration to encourage the provision of supportive services 
which will increase the effectiveness of approved on-the-job training 
programs conducted in connection with Federal-aid highway construction 
projects.
