       CHAPTER 10--MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSAL OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY
 
                    SUBCHAPTER I--GENERAL PROVISIONS
 
Sec. 476. Sex discrimination prohibited

    No individual shall on the ground of sex be excluded from 
participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to 
discrimination under any program or activity carried on or receiving 
Federal assistance under this Act. This provision shall be enforced 
through agency provisions and rules similar to those already established 
with respect to racial and other discrimination under title VI of the 
Civil Rights Act of 1964 [42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.]. However, this remedy 
is not exclusive and will not prejudice or remove any other legal 
remedies available to any individual alleging discrimination.
