The following table shows the data collected on the numbers of facilities of each facility group. Generally, this data is collected from the 2002 US Economic Census for private facilities and the Census of Employment and Wages for public facilities. The number of state and local judicial and detention facilities is estimated from the total number of public order and safety buildings, reported by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), 2003 Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey. The number of office buildings is also collected by this EIA survey. Data for all facilities were adjusted to estimates for 2007 using growth rates from the May 2007 McGraw-Hill Dodge Construction Potentials Bulletin.

The following table lists the rates of new construction for each facility group. These are determined from the May 2007 Dodge Construction Potentials Bulletin, which counts the number of new construction and major alteration projects for certain facility types. These projects are compared to the data on existing numbers of buildings to determine a growth rate per facility type. If no data is collected on the new construction data, a 1% growth rate is assumed. Facilities which posted growth rates greater than 1.2% were assumed not to be able to sustain such high rates of growth for 15 consecutive years and growth was capped at 1.2%. It is assumed that public facilities have the same growth rate as their counterparts in the private sector.

This table is compiled with the Department's architects' assumptions on the typical facility size of each facility grouping in order to determine the estimated number of elements per facility. These assumptions were reviewed by the Cost RAP panelists. The estimated typical facility size was then used to infer the number of elements now subject to new or revised requirements (number of bathrooms, handrails, etc). The publicly owned counterparts of the facilities listed below are assumed to be the same facility size.

[1] See footnote 79.
This table represents the Cost RAP panelists' assumptions and HDR's assumptions on the likelihood that a typical individual facility will have each element and will be affected by the incremental change to the requirement. For example, it is assumed that large facilities such as stadiums will be affected by the requirement for public entrances and that 25% of all stadiums are large enough to have the number of public entrance doors that will be affected by the change.
The high and low values that create the range of the likelihood are plus and minus 10 percentage points of the most likely values if the most likely value is less than 50% or plus and minus 20 percentage points of the most likely values if the most likely value is greater than or equal to 50%.
| Requirement | Conditions for change | Likelihood that Element at Facility AND Subject to Change for Compliance |
|---|---|---|
| 1-Public Entrances | Large newly constructed facility (e.g., arenas, stadiums, convention centers, and shopping malls) will have multiple doors intended to be used as public entrances/exits. | 25% |
| 2-Maneuvering Clearance or Standby Power for Automatic Doors | Facility (a) with an occupant load of less than 50 persons (b) installs an in-swinging automatic door that serves as part of an accessible means of egress. Some of these small facilities may simply choose not to install an automatic door. | 10% |
| 3-Automatic Door Break-Out Openings | Facility (a) installs an automatic door that serves as part of a means of egress (b) that does not have standby power and (c) there are no manual swinging doors serving the same means of egress. | 50% |
| 4-Thresholds at Doorways | Newly constructed facility has exterior sliding doors that are part of an accessible route. | 50% |
| 5-Door and Gate Surfaces | Newly constructed facility has swinging doors or gates. Most new doors meet the requirement (but not gates.) | 25% |
| 6-Location of Accessible Routes | Facility is designed in such a way that it has a colorable claim that it is infeasible to locate the accessible route in the same area as the circulation path, but will now have to do it anyway. | 10% |
| 7-Common Use Circulation Paths in Employee Work Areas | Facility is or was designed to have common use circulation paths in employee work areas that do not overlap or serve as an exit for common use areas (such as employee toilet or locker rooms, break rooms, kitchenettes). Several exceptions exempt common use circulation paths in employee work areas where it may be difficult to comply with the technical requirements for accessible routes due to the size or function of the area. | 10% |
| 8-Accessible Means of Egress | The current guidelines require the same number of accessible means of egress to be provided as the number of exits required by applicable building and fire codes. | 10% |
| 9-Stairs (NC) | Facility plans to install an elevator. (Assumed for all facilities with three or more stories.) | 90% |
| 10-Stairs (ALT/BR) | Facility has an elevator. (For Alt, assumed for all facilities with three or more stories.) | 5% |
| 11-Handrails Along Walkways | Facility chooses to install or replace handrails on non-ramp walkways, and the handrails do not comply. Such handrails are not common. | 10% |
| 12-Handrails | Facility has handrails (e.g., on ramps, non-ramp walkways, or stairs). | 50% |
| 13-Accessible Routes from Site Arrival Points and Within Sites | For NC, facility would not construct a pedestrian route but for the current requirement. For Alt, facility has or constructs a sidewalk. | 80% |
| 14-Standby Power for Platform Lifts | Facility has or will install a platform lift as part of an accessible means of egress. The revision will primarily affect newly constructed performing arts centers and auditoriums that use platform lifts to provide an accessible route to the stage. Platform lifts are rarely used in the other places permitted in new construction. For alterations and barrier removal, will only apply to platform lifts permitted to be used as part of an accessible means of egress as required under the current rule. | 50% |
| 15-Power-Operated Doors for Platform Lifts | Facility has or installs a platform lift that (a) either serves more than two landings (small %) or does not have doors on opposite sides (requires side entrance) and (b) has sufficient maneuvering clearance. Platform lifts typically serve only one or two landings and have self-closing manual doors on both ends. | 20% |
| 16-Alterations to Existing Elevators | Existing facility is large enough to have a bank of elevators (or more than one elevator responding to the same call button). The revision is expected to have minimal impacts since all the elevators in a bank are typically upgraded at the same time when elevators are altered as part of a planned modernization project. | 20% |
| 17-Platform Lifts in Hotel Guest Rooms and Dwelling Units | Facility would have chosen to install an elevator rather than locate all accessible elements on one floor. Few rooms are two stories, and even fewer elect to have an elevator. | 3% |
| 18-"LULA" and Private Residence Elevators | For the LULA, facility with two levels has or would install an elevator anyway. For the private residence elevators, dwelling unit has multiple stories (rare). | 20% |
| 19-Van Accessible Parking Spaces | Facility has (a) between 200-401 parking spaces in a lot and must put extra space in a different location than the current one; or (b) more than 600 spaces (one extra space). For facilities with more than 3200 spaces, extra spaces start adding up (one extra for every 1800 spaces over 3200). | 90% |
| 21-Mechanical Access Parking Garages | Parking facility with mechanical access has no accessible passenger loading zone. | 40% |
| 22-Direct Access Entrances from Parking Structures | Facility has an attached parking structure with more than one pedestrian connection and not all are accessible. | 40% |
| 24-Parking Spaces | Facility must have a parking lot with such spaces that is accessed by the public. | 10% |
| 25-Parking Spaces (Signs) | Facility must (a) have four or fewer parking spaces or (b) be a residential facility with assigned parking spaces. | 10% |
| 26-Passenger Loading Zones at Medical Care and Long-Term Care Facilities | Medical or long-term care facility offers periods of stay longer than 24 hours. | 90% |
| 27-Ambulatory Accessible Toilet Compartments | Facility has a men's bathroom with fewer than six toilet compartments but more than six toilets and urinals combined. | 50% |
| 29-Shower Spray Controls | Facility has bathtubs or showers that are required to be accessible. The revision will primarily affect bathtubs and shower compartments in newly constructed hotel guest rooms, patient sleeping rooms, and dwelling units with mobility features. | 75% |
| 30-Urinals | Facility has a men's toilet room with only one urinal. | 50% |
| 31-Multiple Single-User Toilet Rooms | Facility has multiple single-user toilet rooms (typically provided for specimen collection in medical facilities). | 50% |
| 32-Water Closet Clearance in Single-User Toilet Rooms with In-Swinging Doors | 50% | |
| 33-Water Closet Location and Rear Grab Bar | Facility has site constraints requiring the centerline of water closets to be 16 or 17 inches from the wall and/or requiring installation of a shorter grab bar (in latter case, because lavatory is recessed into the wall). | 50% |
| 34-Patient Toilet Rooms | Facility has critical care or ICU patient rooms that have toilet rooms. | 90% |
| 35-Drinking Fountains | Existing facility has a drinking fountain not used exclusively by children that provides a parallel approach. Most drinking fountains in facilities built since 1992 have forward approach. | 20% |
| 36-Sinks | Hotel guest room (or any transient lodging facility) has a kitchen sink or wet bar as well as a cooktop or range (previously, could have been parallel; will now have to be forward). Non-hotel facility has a wet bar or kitchen sink that is NOT in the same space as a cooktop or range (had to be forward before; can now be parallel). |
50% |
| 38-Sales and Service Counters (NC) | Facility has counters providing a forward approach. For low end of range: Existing facility would have to reduce the number of counters to make them 30" long. | 30% |
| 39-Sales and Service Counters (Alt) | Facility has counters providing a forward approach. For low end of range: Existing facility would have to reduce the number of counters to make them 30" long. | 30% |
| 40-Washing Machines and Clothes Dryers (technical) | Facility has washing machines or dryers available for public use that do not provide a forward reach and that have an obstruction that raises the side reach over 34" but not over 36". The revision was made to accommodate currently available machines. | 20% |
| 41-Washing Machines and Clothes Dryers (Scoping) | Facility has more than 3 washing machines or 3 dryers available for public use. | 10% |
| 43-Limited Access Spaces and Machinery Spaces | Facility has a space that either (a) has limited access but no machinery, (b) has machinery but no limited access, or (c) has both limited access and machinery but is still "occupiable." | 10% |
| 44-Operable Parts | Facility has these elements. | 50% |
| 45-Transient lodging Guest Room Vanities | Facility provides vanity counter top space in non-accessible transient lodging guest rooms. | 90% |
| 46-Operable Windows | Facility (not residential dwelling or transient lodging units not required to be mobility accessible, or employee work areas) installs or has a window intended to be opened by the room occupants (not employees) in rooms or spaces required to be accessible. Will primarily affect hotel guest rooms, dorm rooms and patient sleeping rooms with mobility features where the building code or fire or life safety code requires a window in an accessible room to be operable, or the entity otherwise decides to make it operable. | 50% |
| 47-Dwelling Units with Communication Features[1] | Facility is (a) private or (b) public but elected to comply with ADAAG, and chooses to install (or has) a voice communication system at entrances, an alarm system and/or visible alarms. | 75% |
| 48-Dwelling Units with Communication Features[2] | Facility is public and elected to comply with UFAS, and installs (or has) a voice communication system at entrances, an alarm system and/or visual alarms.[2] | 20% |
| 49-Galley Kitchen Clearances | A facility's kitchen has only one entrance and includes a cooktop or conventional range. | 50% |
| 50-Shower Compartments with Mobility Features | Facility has transfer-type showers with molded compartments with rounded bottom edges and/or a 2 inch curb (where recessing it would disturb the slab) or "alternate" roll-in showers (either in non-hotel facilities or in hotels with controls not adjacent to the seat) or roll-in showers with a ½ inch curb. | 50% |

| 55-Wheelchair Spaces in Assembly Areas | Facility has an assembly area with more than 500 seats in each type of seating. | 50% |
| 56-Accessible Route to Tiered Dining Areas in Sports Facilities (NC) | Newly constructed sports facility has tiered dining areas. | 90% |
| 57-Accessible Route to Press Boxes | Facility has a press box that is either (a) located on a bleacher with an entrance on only one level or (b) freestanding and elevated more than 12 feet high. (Small number of facilities.) | 50% |
| 58-Public TTYS | Private facility has 4+ public pay phones on more than one floor of a building, or in a bank of telephones (and there is not a TTY within 200 feet on the same floor), or in an exterior location. Public facility has 1 public pay phone on more than one floor of a building, or 4+ phones in a bank of telephones (and there is not a TTY within 200 feet on the same floor), or 4+ phones in an exterior location (if a public rest stop, need only be one). Bus and rail stations that have a public pay telephone at an entrance to the facility. Public rest stops that have at least one public pay phone. | 3% |
| 59-Public Telephone Volume Controls | Facility has and/or would have installed non-wheelchair accessible phones without volume controls. (New phones meeting these specifications are currently required under other Federal laws.)[3] | 10% |
| 60-Two-Way Communication Systems at entrances |
|
15% |
| 62-Assistive Listening Systems (technical) | Facility is (a) an assembly area that provides audio amplification or (b) a courtroom, and, in new construction or an alteration, would have installed an assistive listening system that does not meet these specifications. Currently available assistive listening systems meet the new specifications. | 20% |
| 63-Visible Alarms in Alterations to Existing Facilities | Existing facility that has a noncompliant alarm system undertakes an alteration project that would have been significant enough to amount to "an alteration of a room or space" under 4.1.6(1)(c) so that the entire space would have been required to be made accessible. | 30% |
| 64-Detectable Warnings (SCOPING) | Will primarily affect facilities with large parking lots. | 90% |
| 65-Detectable Warnings (TECHNICAL) | Most rail transit facilities come under DOT's jurisdiction. For purposes of this RIA, only rail facilities associated with places of public accommodation (e.g., monorails in amusement parks) have been considered. | 90% |
| 66-Assistive Listening Systems (scoping) | For exemption: Facility is an assembly area (other than a courtroom) with an occupant load of at least 50 people but no audio amplification system. For reduced scoping: Facility is (a) an assembly area that provides audio amplification or (b) a courtroom, and has more than 500 seats | 50% |
| 67-Accessible Courtroom Stations | Courtroom has fixed (rather than movable) work stations. | 100% of judicial facilities |
| 68-Accessible Attorney Areas and Witness Stands | Courtroom has raised (rather than level) attorney areas and witness stands. | 100% of judicial facilities |
| 69-Raised Courtroom Stations not for members of the public | Courtroom has raised (rather than level) stations. | 100% of judicial facilities |
For some requirements, the likelihood of an element at a facility and subject to change in order to become compliant under the Rule is assumed to vary by the type of facility (hotel versus store, etc.) These likelihoods also have a "most likely" value, as well as high and low values which are equal to plus and minus 5% of the most likely likelihood value.
The most likely value is presented in the table below; conditions for the likelihood are shown separately at the end of this table. The facility-requirement matches labeled as N/A represent that the requirement is not typically present in the facility, so the likelihood that a facility would have the element to comply does not apply.
The publicly owned counterparts of the facilities below generally are assumed to have an equal likelihood of an element both existing and requiring change to bring it into compliance with 2004 ADAAG (or other alternate baseline). However, the likelihood of change for the requirements for accessible means of entry to swimming pools (Req. ## 79 & 112), accessible saunas and steam rooms (Req. ## 72 & 111), and play areas (Req. ## 99-104) at public (Title II) facilities in this Appendix take into account estimates of pre-existing compliance (or, in the case of new construction or alterations, projected compliance) with 2004 ADAAG due to overlapping program access requirements. See Section 2.4.1. First, for public aquatic centers / swimming pools, the likelihood that an accessible means of entry would need to be added (via lift or sloped entry) in order to comply with 2004 ADAAG was reduced by 73% based on sources cited in the Access Board's regulatory assessment for recreational facilities that about 70% of existing pools already provide one or more accessible means of pool entry. Id. Second, for saunas and steam rooms, this same percentage (73%) was used to scale back the likelihood for change both because saunas and steams rooms are frequently co-located with swimming pools at recreational facilities (and thus are assumed to share common accessibility levels and features) and because no public survey data exists for saunas. Third, a series of recently published surveys of play areas at large urban parks and school districts nationwide showed that the vast majority of existing play areas at these facilities, as well as play areas expected to be constructed or renovated over a five-tear planning horizon through 2011, already use (or plan to use) accessible surface materials that are compliant with 2004 ADAAG. See "Playgrounds in the Nation's Largest Urban Park Districts," Henderson Consulting Services, Inc. (March 2006); "Playgrounds in the Nation's Largest School Districts," Henderson Consulting Services, Inc. (March 2006) (both surveys available at http://www.fibar.com/Playgrounds/news.htm). Based on this survey data, the likelihoods for change for public play areas was scaled back by 50% for play areas built since 1992 (when the current ADA Standards for new construction took effect), and 25% for play areas built prior to 1992.
