    The Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (the ``Act''), as amended, is 
designed to prohibit discrimination on the basis of age in programs or 
activities receiving Federal financial assistance. The Act also permits 
federally-assisted programs or activities, and recipients of Federal 
funds, to continue to use certain age distinctions and factors other 
than age which meet the requirements of the Act and this regulation.
