SUB-RECIPIENTS – COMPLIANCE BY ENTITIES RECEIVING FEDERAL FUNDS

Are you a contractor receiving federal funding?

Under the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, those who receive federal funds – officially called “sub-recipients” – must comply with the acts' provisions. The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) distributes these funds and monitors compliance. MDOT SHA has guidance to help you understand and comply with the laws' administrative and technical provisions.
