OCR coordinates DOT's civil rights enforcement efforts, which are decentralized. OCR is responsible for providing policy guidance on civil rights matters to the modal administrations (i.e., Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Highway Administration, Federal Railroad Administration, Federal Transit Administration, Maritime Administration, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Research and Special Programs Administration, and U.S. Coast Guard). OCR performs activities to ensure DOT's federally assisted and conducted programs are operated in compliance with civil rights statutes. OCR evaluates the performance of the modal administrations in the areas of civil rights and conducts all stages of the formal internal discrimination complaint process.
