§ 1.1849 Program accessibility: Discrimination prohibited.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in § 1.1850, no qualified individual
with a disability shall, because the Commission's facilities are
inaccessible to, or unusable, by individuals with disabilities, be
denied the benefits of, be excluded from participation in, or otherwise
be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity conducted
by the Commission.
(b) Individuals shall request accessibility to the Commission's
programs and facilities by contacting the Commission's Section 504
Officer. Such contact may be made in the manner indicated in the FCC
Section 504 Handbook. The Commission will make every effort to provide
accommodations requiring the assistance of other persons (e.g.,
American Sign Language interpreters, communication access realtime
translation (CART) providers, transcribers, captioners, and readers) if
the request is made to the Commission's Section 504 Officer a minimum
of five business days in advance of the program. If such requests are
made fewer than five business days prior to an event, the Commission
will make every effort to secure accommodation services, although it
may be less likely that the Commission will be able to secure such
services.
