Upcoming event: Understanding the Draft Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas

There’s still time to register for this December 3rd Webinar hosted by the US Access Board and the national network of ADA Technical Assistance Centers.

On October 19, 2009, the U.S. Access Board released draft final guidelines for trails, picnic and camping facilities, and beach access routes. Once finalized, these guidelines will apply to outdoor sites managed by the Federal government, including national parks and recreation areas covered by the Architectural Barriers Act. This webinar session will provide participants with the opportunity to better understand the draft guidelines.

This session will also highlight how the conditions for exceptions apply to trails and beach access routes, review “outdoor constructed features”, and discuss the requirements for outdoor recreation routes and beach access routes.

Registration is only available by paper form. Contact the Great Lakes ADA Technical Assistance Center at adaconferences@adagreatlakes.org. The series is available at no cost. Continuing education credits are available for a small fee.
