HomeMy WebLinkAboutADA Notice.pdfNOTICE UNDER THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT
In accordance with the requirements of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ("ADA"),
the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (“IPUC”) will not discriminate against qualified individuals with
disabilities on the basis of disability in its services, programs, or activities.
Employment: The IPUC does not discriminate on the basis of disability in its hiring or employment
practices and complies with all regulations promulgated by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission under Title I of the ADA.
Effective Communication: The IPUC will generally, upon request, provide appropriate aids and services
leading to effective communication for qualified persons with disabilities so they can participate equally
in the IPUC’s programs, services, and activities, including qualified sign language interpreters,
documents in Braille, and other ways of making information and communications accessible to people
who have speech, hearing, or vision impairments.
Modifications to Policies and Procedures: The IPUC will make all reasonable modifications to policies
and programs to ensure that people with disabilities have an equal opportunity to enjoy its programs,
services, and activities. For example, individuals with service animals are welcomed in the IPUC office,
even where pets are generally prohibited.
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of
policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity of the IPUC, should contact the
IPUC as soon as possible but no later than three business days before the scheduled event.
The ADA does not require the IPUC to take any action that would fundamentally alter the nature of its
programs or services, or impose an undue financial or administrative burden.
Complaints that a program, service, or activity of the IPUC is not accessible to persons with disabilities
should be directed to Ryan Beus.
