We will be looking for someone to be a SPEC Ambassador for our chapter, we will have more information later. Have a great 2012! Good Luck and Stay Healthy, Mark Lyons Happy Valentines Day

MORE ADA INFORMATION

(emailed from CA rep)

The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design (ADA Standards) were adopted last year by the US Department of Justice (US DOJ). Compliance with the new federal standards is man-datory as of March 15, 2012. For information and technical assistance about the new federal standards, you can contact the US DOJ via their ADA Information Line at 800-514-0301.

For many years the California Building Code (CBC) has required pool lifts for pools at public accommodations and commercial facilities; these requirements are in the 2010 CBC at Sec-tion 1104B.4.3. The CBC also requires pool lifts for common use pools at apartments, con-dos, and other covered housing; these requirements are in the 2010 CBC at Section 1141A. For any questions about accessibility requirements for pools and pool lifts at privately-funded locations, please contact the city or county building department that has jurisdiction over your project(s). For projects under the enforcement jurisdiction of the Division of the State Architect, primarily State facilities and public schools, we have issued a bulletin which describes the owner’s and designer’s obligation to comply with the both the CBC and the ADA Standards. This bulletin may be viewed at the following link: http://www.documents.dgs.ca.gov/dsa/bulletins/BU_11-07_rev08-16-11.pdf
