Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

Title IV of the Americans with
disabilities act, public law 101-336, requires that on or before July 26,
1993, telephone corporations providing interstate or intrastate telephone
services provide telecommunications relay services (TRS) for individuals who
are hearing-impaired or speech-impaired that will allow them to engage in
telephone communication in a manner functionally equivalent to that of
individuals without hearing or speech impairments. The legislature finds that
it is in the public interest to provide for the appointment of a TRS
administrator who can coordinate TRS services and assist the state in applying
for certification of the state TRS program by the federal deadline of October
1, 1992. This certification, if approved by the federal communications
commission, will allow every telephone corporation providing intrastate
service in Idaho to meet its obligations under federal law by participating in
the state telecommunications relay services program.
