Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.
FOREWORD USE OF INDEXES TO LOCATE THE DESIRED LETTER, FINDING, DECISION, OR COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT This compilation consists of findings, decisions, and five compliance assessments interpreting or pertaining to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Included are findings and decisions from June 1996 through December 2004. The five compliance assessments are included because they have not been posted on the Federal Transit Administrationâs Web site. Other compliance assessments are available at http://www.ft.dot.gov/civilrights/ada/civil_rights_3899.html. This compilation has been arranged so that documents can be found according to the region, by alphabetical order, or by subject and issue. The user should refer to the Table of Contents, which will aid in locating the most relevant document. The index will include the page on which cases can be found. Use the Regional Index if you need to research decisions pertaining to transit agencies within a particular region. You will find the Subject and Issue Index more useful if you wish to determine how the United States Department of Transportation has resolved particular issues. If you know the name of the certification, determination, or policy letter for which the search is being conducted, use the Alphabetical List of ADA Decisions.
