This section requires guide dogs and other specially trained service animals accompanying people with disabilities to be admitted to Federal property on the same terms as the public. It requires the animals to remain controlled and lets agencies issue needed rules.

(a) In general. Guide dogs and other service animals that accompany people with disabilities and were specially trained for that purpose must be admitted to any building or other property owned or controlled by the Federal Government on the same terms and conditions, and under the same rules, that generally apply to admitting the public. The animals may not run free or roam in the building or on the property. While there, they must be in a guiding harness or on a leash and under the person’s control at all times. (b) Regulations. The head of each Government department or agency may issue rules the head considers necessary in the public interest to carry out this section for buildings or property under that head’s authority.
