used by the Access Board to develop accessibility guidelines under the

Act of 1968 for newly constructed and altered recreational facilities 
and outdoor developed areas. The advisory committee is composed of 
owners and operators of various recreational facilities; persons who 
design recreational facilities or manufacture related equipment; 
Federal, State and local government officials responsible for parks and 
other outdoor developed areas; and individuals with disabilities and 
organizations representing the interests of such persons.
    The Recreation Access Advisory Committee has formed subcommittees 
to assist in its work. The subcommittees include: Amusement Parks; 
Golf; Play Area Settings; Recreational Boating and Fishing; Developed 
Outdoor Recreation Facilities and Areas; and Sports Facilities. 
Subcommittee meetings will be held on Friday, March 18, 1994 (11 a.m.-
