Every applicant must comply with the affirmative action
requirements set forth in section 3.07(12) of the Arts and Cultural Affairs
Law. In order to comply, all applicants must include specific
antidiscrimination language in all contracts with contractors and vendors that
will perform work or provide services in connection with the project, and must
require all such contractors and vendors to include such antidiscrimination
language in any subcontracts entered into in connection with work or services
to be performed on the project. In addition, certain applicants will be
required to undertake and to require their contractors to undertake certain
affirmative action measures in connection with any work to be performed on the
project. The antidiscrimination language and the affirmative action
requirements are set forth in detail in the council's Affirmative Action
Guidelines for Applicants, Grantees, Contractors and Subcontractors
Participating in New York State Council on the Arts' Capital Initiative (the
"Guidelines"). The Guidelines shall automatically be mailed by the council to
all applicants to the Capital Initiative Program, or can be obtained by sending
