ADA does not have accessibility requirements similar to Section 508 or WCAG.
It is the Rehabilitation Act which includes Section 508.
You can find the standards at:
http://www.section508.gov/index.cfm?FuseAction=Content&;ID=12
>From your e-mail I assume you are familiar with WCAG.
For a comparison of WCAG and Section 508, see Jim Thatcher's page, it is an
excellent resource:

Hope this helps.
