Self-Service Transaction Machines:
The Access Board, the Department of Transportation (DOT) and The Department of Justice (DOJ) --
• Are undertaking related rulemakings • This is an opportunity to work collaboratively • to develop a single set of technical
requirements that would be referenced and scoped by each agency
