CURRENT STATE ACCESSIBILITY REQUIREMENTS The State of California developed accessibility standards in the early 1980s. The current State regulations for accessibility are found in Chapter 11 B of the 2007 California Building Code (CBC). In 1993, the State amended its code with the October 1, 1993 Supplement. The intent of the 1993 Supplement was to merge the State accessibility requirements with the requirements from the ADAAG to produce a single document that could be certified by the Department of Justice (DOJ) as complying with the ADA. The evaluations were based on the 2001 CBC.
