(ii) if the information technology does not meet the nonvisual access standards, the Secretary, or the Secretary's designee, will notify the vendor in writing that the vendor, at the vendor's own expense, has 12 months after the date of the notification to modify the information technology in order to meet the nonvisual access standards; and

(iii) if the vendor fails to modify the information technology to meet the nonvisual access standards within 12 months after the date of the notification, the vendor:

(i) the information technology is not available with nonvisual access because the essential elements of the information technology are visual and nonvisual equivalence cannot be developed; or
