Update May 9, 2019: The CTA has apparently decided to DMCA themselves, as they have removed their own hosted copies of their own free standard from their own website in response to me... providing to a link to it? Perhaps there is some internal miscommunication regarding whether the CTA wants these standards to be publicly accessible or not. Just in case any CTA employees missed the memo, your organization decided to make your entire library of standards free to the public <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cta.tech/News/Press-Releases/2018/May/CTA-s-Entire-Library-of-Industry-Standards-Now-Fre.aspx"><u>about a year ago</u></a>. For people looking to access the CTA-861 standards, they can still be obtained from the CTA store (although you must first register an account and then "buy" the standard for $0.00). The benefits of this inconvenient process remain a mystery, but the CTA apparently feels it is very important to enforce this strange method of distributing free public documents.
