                   Subpart 1251.1--General Provisions
 
Sec. 1251.105  Remedial action, voluntary action, and self-evaluation.

    (a) Remedial action. (1) If the Assistant Administrator finds that a 
recipient has discriminated against persons on the basis of handicap in 
violation of section 504 or this part, the recipient shall take such 
remedial action as the Assistant Administrator deems necessary to 
overcome the effects to the discrimination.
    (2) Where a recipient is found to have discriminated against persons 
on the basis of handicap in violation of section 504 or this part and 
where another recipient exercises control over the recipient that has 
discriminated, the Assistant Administrator, where appropriate, may 
require either or both recipients to take remedial action.
    (3) The Assistant Administrator may, where necessary to overcome the 
effects of discrimination in violation of section 504 or this part, 
require a recipient to take remedial action:
    (i) With respect to handicapped persons who are no longer 
participants in the recipient's program but who were participants in the 
program when such discrimination occurred; or
    (ii) With respect to handicapped persons who would have been 
participants in the program had the discrimination not occurred; or
    (iii) With respect to handicapped persons presently in the program, 
but not receiving full benefits or equal and integrated treatment within 
the program.
    (b) Voluntary action. A recipient may take steps, in addition to any 
action that is required by this part, to overcome the effects of 
conditions that resulted in limited participation in the recipient's 
program or activity by qualified handicapped persons.
    (c) Self-evaluation. (1) A recipient shall, within 1 year of the 
effective date of this part; or within 1 year of first becoming a 
recipient:
    (i) Evaluate, with the assistance of interested persons, including 
handicapped persons or organizations representing handicapped persons, 
its current policies and practices and the effects thereof that do not 
or may not meet the requirements of this part;
    (ii) Modify, after consultation with interested persons, including 
handicapped persons or organizations representing handicapped persons, 
any policies and practices that do not meet the requirements of this 
part; and
    (iii) Take, after consultation with interested persons, including 
handicapped persons or organizations representing handicapped persons, 
appropriate remedial steps to eliminate the effects of any 
discrimination that resulted from adherence to these policies and 
practices.
    (2) A recipient that employs 15 or more persons shall, for at least 
3 years, follow completion of the evaluation required under paragraph 
(c)(1) of this section, maintain on file, make available for public 
inspection, and provide to the Assistant Administrator upon request:
    (i) A list of the interested persons consulted;
    (ii) A description of areas examined and any problems identified; 
and
    (iii) A description of any modifications made and of any remedial 
steps taken.
