Readily achievable in Title III terms means what?

• A. Easily Accomplishable and Not Causing Undue Burden
• B. Must Be Completed Within One Year
• C. Requires Funding Before Any Action
• D. Only for Life-Safety Issues

Answer: (A)

Readily achievable means actions that are easily accomplishable and do not impose an undue burden. In Title III, barrier removal should be pursued when it can be done without significant difficulty or expense, considering the facility’s resources and operations. The concept isn’t tied to a fixed deadline or required funding before starting, and while life-safety issues are important, the standard applies broadly to barriers that impede access. So removing a barrier is readily achievable if it can be done with modest effort and cost without causing substantial harm to the business.
