ADA Law Summary
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) – what you, your business and your clients need to know in order to be compliant.

Background and History of ADA

The original Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law on July 26, 1990. The pool and spa industry is involved in two sub-parts of this law. Public Entities and Public transportation (Title II) and Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities (Title III). In 2004 the Department of Justice issued enforcement guidelines that included pools and spas. At that point they were just that – guidelines and not law.

In July 2010, the Department of Justice announced its final rule making. The revised regulations were then published in the Federal Register on September 16, 2010 and will take effect on March 15, 2011. Compliance with these regulations will be required no later than March 15, 2012.

Title II (Public Industry)
Title II prohibits disability discrimination by all public entities at the local and state levels. Examples of Title II entities include school districts, municipalities, cities, and counties.

Title III (Private Industry)
Title III prohibits disability discrimination by and place of public accommodation (commercial facilities). Examples of Title III entities include a place of recreation, a place of education, and a place of lodging.
