Tom,

We (College of Charleston) just recently had to complete the same things.  Our
project was funded under the EPA's Environmental Justice Program, which is to
target areas where the population has been exposed to environmental problems of
greater magnitude that places where non-disadvantaged people reside.  I assumed
that's why minority population and civil rights data were required.  We have
not had to complete this information for "regular" research program grants.
Could this be the case for you, too?
