As posted by U.S. Access Board...

NOTICE: Because of the absence of a Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 appropriation, the Access Board is compelled to “shut-down” its operations. All Access Board employees have been placed in a furlough status. During the shut-down we will not be providing the following services: complaint processing under the Architectural Barriers Act, guidelines and standards development, webinars, training, technical assistance, website maintenance and updates, and publications fulfillment.
