42 U.S.C. § 12145: Temporary relief where lifts are unavailable

that the initial solicitation for new buses made by the public entity specified that all new buses were to be lift-equipped and were to be otherwise accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities; the unavailability from any qualified manufacturer of hydraulic, electromechanical, or other lifts for such new buses; that the public entity seeking temporary relief has made good faith efforts to locate a qualified manufacturer to supply the lifts to the manufacturer of such buses in sufficient time to comply with such solicitation; and that any further delay in purchasing new buses necessary to obtain such lifts would significantly impair transportation services in the community served by the public entity. Any relief granted under subsection (a) shall be limited in duration by a specified date, and the appropriate committees of Congress shall be notified of any such relief granted. cancel such relief if such relief is still in effect; and take such other action as the Secretary considers appropriate.
