    (a) Each recipient shall, within one year of the receipt of 
financial assistance, conduct or have conducted an evaluation of its 
compliance with this subpart with the assistance of interested persons, 
including handicapped persons or organizations representing handicapped 
persons. Each such recipient shall evaluate its current policies and 
practices and their effects, and modify any that do not meet the

persons and organizations, including handicapped persons, any policies 
and practices that do not meet the requirements of this subpart; and
    (c) Each recipient shall 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.
