Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
www.access-board.gov
* When it comes to play areas - the ADA does have an impact
* This does get a tad tricky - as in some instances - the ADA may not be required
* It is the responsibility of the owner - to know what is needed
* If you have a question - drop us an email - info@jplarue.com - and we will give you our opinion
* You can send an email to ta@access-board.gov (this is Technical Assistance) - and ask them for assistance
If you log on to the Access Board's web site - run a search for Play Areas - you can view/download the entire technical document, as well as obtain a copy of the ADAAG (Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines)
or...
send an email to: pubs@access-board.gov and ask them to email you information, links, etc, as they relate to Play Areas
While you are at it - ask them to put you on the mailing list (paper or email) to obtain your copy of ACCESS CURRENTS - great resource
ADAAG Regulations are final for Titles II and II for the Americans with Disabilities Act
March 2012 - was the date - they are now - ADA Standards
Accessibility Standards for Federal Outdoor Developed Areas
* 2014 - Advancing Full Access and Inclusion (see #6 - Outdoor Guide below)
