23 National Fire Protection Association Report 8 of 185 5/17/2016 1:23 PM Public Comment No. 80-NFPA [ Section No [Excluding any Sub-Sections] ] This chapter contains all of the additional text for requirements added by the U.S. Department of Justice to the 2004 ADA/ABA-AG published by the U.S. Access Board in creating and adopting the 2010 ADA Standards published by the U.S. Department of Justice. Where technical requirements are covered in [DELETE CHAPTER 12 AND REPLACE WITH THE FOLLOWING:] Buildings and facilities and additions to and altered portions of existing buildings and facilities shall be in compliance with ICC/ANSI A117.1, they have been referenced. Requirements of the HUD Fair Housing Act Design Manual have been re-written in code language and incorporated in appropriate sections. [ 2010 ADA STANDARDS (DOJ): 201] The number in brackets at the end of each paragraph refers to the paragraph number of the source document. Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Comment PI 137 proposed the use of ICC/ANSI A117.1, which is a safe harbor document. The Technical Committee statement said that the PI appears to create more restrictive requirements than are currently in place. Thus, the Technical Committee is indicating that the provisions in NFPA 5000 are less restrictive than the DOJ safe harbor document, which means that the provisions of chapter 12 do not meet the minimum federal requirements. This Public Comment intends to upgrade chapter 12 to meet minimum federal requirements.
