SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In September 1994, the Access Board 
established an advisory committee to review the Americans with 
Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) for buildings and 
facilities. 36 CFR part 1191, appendix A. The Advisory Committee will 
make recommendations to the Access Board for updating ADAAG to ensure 
that the guidelines remain a state-of-the-are document which is 
generally consistent with technological developments and changes in 
national standards and model codes, and continue to meet the needs of 
individuals with disabilities. The Advisory Committee is composed of 
organizations representing individuals with disabilities, model code 
organizations, professional associations, State and local governments, 
building owners and operators, and other organizations. The Advisory 
Committee has formed the following subcommittees to assist in its work: 
Editorial, Accessible Routes, Plumbing, Communications, and Special 
Occupancies. The subcommittees will present their recommendations to 
the full advisory committee in November 1995. The full advisory 
committee will review the subcommittee recommendations and present 
final recommendations to the Access Board by April 1996.
    The Accessible Routes Subcommittee, Plumbing Subcommittee, and 
Special Occupancies Subcommittee will meet in June and July 1995 on the 
specific dates and at the locations announced in this notice. The 
meetings are open to the public. The meeting sites are accessible to
