SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In September 1994, the Access Board
established an advisory committee to review the Americans with
Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) for buildings and
facilities. 36 CFR part 1191, appendix A. The Advisory Committee will
make recommendations to the Access Board for updating ADAAG to ensure
that the guidelines remain a state-of-the-are document which is
generally consistent with technological developments and changes in
national standards and model codes, and continue to meet the needs of
individuals with disabilities. The Advisory Committee is composed of
organizations representing individuals with disabilities, model code
organizations, professional associations, State and local governments,
building owners and operators, and other organizations. The Advisory
Committee has formed the following subcommittees to assist in its work:
Editorial, Accessible Routes, Plumbing, Communications, and Special
Occupancies. The subcommittees will present their recommendations to
the full advisory committee in November 1995. The full advisory
committee will review the subcommittee recommendations and present
final recommendations to the Access Board by April 1996.
The Accessible Routes Subcommittee, Plumbing Subcommittee, and
Special Occupancies Subcommittee will meet in June and July 1995 on the
