We, the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (hereafter, ``Access Board'' or ``Board''), are issuing this direct final rule to extend, for three years, the sunset provisions in the Board's existing accessibility standards for medical diagnostic equipment related to the low-height specifications for transfer surfaces to provide additional time for research necessary to determine the appropriate, final specification for the low transfer height position.
