    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.
