Arbitration Panel Decision Under the Randolph-Sheppard Act

Notice is hereby given that on July 31, 1991, an arbitration panel rendered a decision in the matter of Minnesota Department of Jobs and Training, State Services for the Blind and Visually Handicapped v. Department of Veterans Affairs (Docket No. R-S/87-8). This panel was convened by the Secretary of Education pursuant to the Randolph- Sheppard Act (the Act), 20 U.S.C. 107d-1(b), upon receipt of a complaint filed by the Minnesota Department of Jobs and Training, State Services for the Blind and Visually Handicapped on January 15, 1987. The Randolph-Sheppard Act creates a priority for blind individuals to operate vending facilities on Federal property. Under section 107d- 1(b), the State licensing agency (SLA) may file a complaint with the Secretary if the SLA determines that an agency managing or controlling Federal property fails to comply with the Act or regulations implementing the Act. The Secretary then is required to convene an arbitration panel to resolve the dispute.
