16 Tex. Admin. Code § 26.79 - Equal Opportunity Reports
(a) This section
does not apply to a deregulated company that holds a certificate of operating
authority or to an exempt carrier under Public Utility Regulatory Act (PURA)
§52.154.
(b) The term
"minority group members," when used within this section, must include only
members of the following groups:
(1)
African-Americans;
(2) American
Indians;
(3)
Asian-Americans;
(4)
Hispanic-Americans and other Americans of Hispanic origin; and
(5) women.
(c) Each utility that files any form with
local, state or federal governmental agencies relating to equal employment
opportunities for minority group members, (e.g., EEOC Form EEO-1, FCC Form 395,
RUS Form 268, etc.) must file a copy of such completed forms with the
commission. If such a form submitted by a multi-jurisdictional utility does not
indicate Texas-specific numbers, the utility must also prepare, and file with
the commission, a form indicating Texas-specific numbers, in the same format
and based on the numbers contained in the form previously filed with local,
state or federal governmental agencies. Each utility must also file with the
commission copies of any other forms required to be filed with local, state or
federal governmental agencies which contain the same or similar information,
such as personnel data identifying numbers and occupations of minority group
members employed by the utility, and employment goals relating to them, if
any.
(d) Any additional information
relating to the matters described in this section may be submitted at the
utility's option.
(e) Any utility
filing with the commission any documents described in subsections (c) and (d)
of this section must file a copy of such documents with the commission under
the project number assigned for that year's filings. Utilities may obtain the
project number by contacting Central Records.
(f) A utility that files a report with local,
state or federal governmental agencies and that is required by this section to
file such a report with the commission, must file the report by December 30 of
the same calendar year it is filed with the local, state or federal
agencies.
(g) A utility that files
a report in accordance with §
26.85(f)(1) of
this title (relating to Report of Workforce Diversity and Other Business
Practices) satisfies the requirements of subsection (c) of this
section.
