Conn. Gen. Stat. § 46a-68d: Filing of good faith efforts plans by contractors awarded certain public works contracts. Review and approval of plan by executive director or designee. Discriminatory practices.

(a) In addition to the provisions of section 4a-60, a contractor awarded a public works contract valued at one million dollars or more or a construction manager which has entered into a contract providing for a guaranteed maximum price and has been awarded a public works contract valued at one hundred fifty thousand dollars or more, shall develop and file a good faith efforts action plan with the Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities which shall comply with regulations adopted by the commission. Any such plan shall be filed not later than forty-five days from the date the contract is awarded or, in the case of a construction manager, the date the guaranteed maximum price agreement is executed. The commission may grant one fifteen-day extension for such filing to a contractor upon written request of the contractor.

(b) The executive director or the executive director's designee shall review and formally approve, conditionally approve or disapprove the content of the good faith efforts plan not later than one hundred twenty days following the date of the submission of the plan to the commission. If the executive director or the executive director's designee fails to approve, conditionally approve or disapprove a plan within such one-hundred-twenty-day period, the plan shall be deemed to be either approved or deficient without consequence. If a plan is disapproved, the contractor shall have thirty days from the notice of disapproval to resubmit an amended plan in order to remedy the reasons for disapproval. If the contractor fails to resubmit a plan or to remedy the reasons for disapproval, the plan shall receive a final disapproval from the executive director or the executive director's designee.

(c) Any failure to submit a plan as required by this section or receipt of a final disapproval of a plan shall constitute a discriminatory practice, as defined in section 46a-51. Any contractor who has received a final disapproval may request reconsideration of the disapproval according to the procedures for reconsideration set forth in subsection (h) of section 46a-83.
