APPENDIX BADAAG 15.2 / ADA-ABA 1003ACCESSIBLE BOATING FACILITIESBackground.The Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) was passed by Congress in 1967, andsubsequently ABA Guidelines were developed and published.The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed by Congress in 1990 and thefollowing year the Americans with Disabilities Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) wereapproved and published by the Architectural and Transportation Barriers ComplianceBoard (ATBCB, commonly known as the Access Board). ADAAG provides guidelines forcompliance with the ADA, including general information, instructions, definitions,accessible elements and spaces restaurants and cafeterias, medical facilities, places ofbusiness, civic facilities, libraries, transient lodging, transportation facilities, judicial andlegislative facilities, detention and correctional facilities, residential housing, publicrights-of-way, and recreational facilities. ADAAG 15 is the section in which recreationfacilities are addressed, and ADAAG 15.2 addresses Recreational Boating Facilities.When ADAAG was published in 1991, ADAAG 15 was held in reserve pendingresearch, investigation and development of appropriate criteria upon which to baseaccessibility guidelines for recreational facilities. In 2002, ADAAG 15 was finallypublished by the Access Board. However, in July 2004, the Access Board published anew accessibility guideline called the Americans with Disabilities Act - ArchitecturalBarriers Act (ADA-ABA), a merged document containing guidelines from both the 1967ABA guidelines and the 1991 ADA guidelines.The ADA-ABA guidelines are now being reviewed by the federal Department of Justice(DOJ), and upon approval will become federal rules that will be enforced by DOJ. In themeantime, ADAAG is still applicable and should be complied with. How soon DOJ willapprove the new ADA-ABA is not known at this time.Comparison of the ADAAG and the ADA-ABA.In merging the two guideline documents, they were edited and completely re-formatted.The table on the next page of this appendix shows ADAAG 15.2 in the left column, andADA-ABA Chapter 10 in the right column, complete with all of the cross referencesunique to the two guidelines. Where particular guidelines have been carried over intoADA-ABA, the text is the same or similar in opposite columns. Where changes ordeletions occur, blank spaces will be seen in one or the other columns.Appendix B: ADA -- ADA/ABA Comparison - Page 125
