In Michigan, the Business Enterprise Program is operated under authority of two separate Acts and their promulgated rules.
The law that initiated the concept of a program to provide employment to blind people is the Randolph-Sheppard Act, of 1936, PL 93-516 as amended, 20 U.S.C. 107 to 107F. This act deals with the operation of vending facilities on federal property. Below is a Word version of the Randolph-Sheppard Act and specific attachments:

Additionally, Michigan Public Act 260 of 1978 being section 393.351 et seq. of the Michigan Compiled Laws, provides authority granting priority to blind people to operate concessions on certain State property.
