73 Civ. 4279
Hon. Morris E. <strong>Lasker</strong>
United States District Judge
Southern District of New York
United States Courthouse
Foley Square
New York, N.Y. 10007
Dear Judge <strong>Lasker</strong>:
In December, 1976 Your Honor once more extended
jurisdiction in this action for the purpose, as
originally set forth in your order of February <strong>24</strong>,
1975, of receiving, reviewing and ruling upon any new
affirmative action program for public construction
in New York City entered into by any defendant in
this action, prior to its becoming effective.
Accordingly, the State defendants have previously
submitted to you and to plaintiffs 1 counsel copies
of both Executive Order No. 45 and the proposed regulations
for State and State-assisted construction and
non-construction contracts.
I have now been advised that the State <strong>Div</strong>ision
of <strong>Human</strong> <strong>Rights</strong> has completed public hearings with
regard to the proposed regulations implementing
Executive Order No. 45. The period within which
written <strong>comments</strong> regarding the proposed regulations
may be submitted by the public has also been completed.
The State <strong>Div</strong>ision of <strong>Human</strong> Eights is currently reviewing
the testimony and <strong>comments</strong> in order to determine whether
any of the procedural modifications to the proposed
regulations suggested therein should be adopted.

Before such changes, if any, are made, and before
the proposed regulations are officially promulgated, we
respectfully request Your Honor's <strong>comments</strong> upon the
basic approach to affirmative action that is reflected
in the proposed regulations. If Your Honor concurs
in the substance of the proposed regulations, it is
respectfully suggested that an order approving the
proposed regulations and dismissing this action as
against the State defendants would be a satisfactory
resolution of this matter.
Very truly yours 1
LOUIS J. LEFKOWITZ
