About this file

This document establishes participation goals for female and minority contractors under the CDBG-DR program across multiple economic areas spanning Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Tennessee. The goals are stratified by geographic region and further divided between Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) counties and non-SMSA counties to reflect demographic variations. The nationwide goal for female participation is set at 6.9%. For minority participation, regional goals vary significantly, ranging from 2.5% in the Huntington, WV non-SMSA counties to 18.2% in the Clarksville-Hopkinsville SMSA area. The document provides detailed county-level classifications for each economic area, enabling contractors and contracting agencies to identify applicable participation targets based on project location.

These goals are sourced from the U.S. Department of Labor's "Technical Assistance Guide for Federal Construction Contractors" and serve as benchmarks for federal construction projects receiving CDBG-DR funding. The stratified approach recognizes regional demographic differences and economic characteristics, with larger metropolitan areas generally showing higher minority participation goals compared to non-SMSA counties. Contractors and agencies are expected to make good faith efforts to meet the established goals for their respective geographic areas, with these targets informing subcontracting plans and diversity initiatives throughout the contract period.
