United States Mint Section 508 Accessibility Statement (July 2013)

The United States Mint is committed to making its Electronic & Information Technology (EIT) accessible to individuals with disabilities by meeting or exceeding the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794d). Section 508 requires agencies, during the procurement, development, maintenance, or use phases of EIT, to ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to and use of EIT information and data comparable to the access and use afforded to individuals without disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency. The Section 508 standards are the technical requirements and criteria used to measure EIT accessibility conformance within this law.

Physical Accessibility

Facilities Accessibility and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) of 1968

The Mint is committed to providing workplaces and public spaces that are accessible to everyone. The ABA requires compliance with ABA accessibility standards access for buildings or facilities designed, built, or altered by or on behalf of the United States after August 12, 1968; those leased in whole or in part by the United States; and those constructed in whole or in part with Federal funds or leased by Federal agencies after August 12, 1968. A separate Federal agency, the United States Access Board, was created to enforce the ABA, which it does through the investigation of complaints.
