Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board or
Board), are revising and updating, in a single rulemaking, our
standards for electronic and information technology developed,

section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as well as our
guidelines for telecommunications equipment and customer
premises equipment covered by Section 255 of the Communications
Act of 1934. The revisions and updates to the section 508-based
standards and section 255-based guidelines are intended to
ensure that information and communication technology covered by
the respective statutes is accessible to and usable by
individuals with disabilities.â</span><o:p></o:p></p>
