New ADA Requirements to Affect Recreation Facilities

During the 20th anniversary celebration of the Americans with Disabilities Act on Monday, President Barack Obama announced the U.S. Department of Justice has issued final regulations revising Title II and III, including the ADA Standards for Accessible Design. The changes will affect future design of public and commercial recreation facilities of all kinds.

The new regulations will take effect six months after being published in the Federal Register. Eighteen months after publication, compliance with the 2010 standards will be required for new construction and alterations. Complete details regarding the amendments are available at the United States Department of Justice website.
