Accessible Web pages for ALL Users

E P A Region 8 is in the process of modifying the layout and content of its Webpages  to comply with Section 508 of the Americans with Disabilities Act.  This is being done so that our information will be accessible to all members of the community.

In some limited instances, pages may not be understandable with certain screen reader software.  An example of this might be complicated geographic maps with numerous data points and legends.  Where possible, we include a textual explanation of this graphical information, but in some cases we could not find ways of expressing this information in a textual or other format.

If you need some additional assistance understanding any of our materials, please do not hesitate to call us at 303-312-6312 if you live in Denver.  Callers within the 6 Region states may reach us at 1-800-227-8917.

Adobe offers the PDF conversion tools for the benefit of blind and visually impaired users, and they have generously allowed us to post links on their Web pages to these tools for that purpose.  Adobe offers a full range of pdf conversion options for blind users.

Adobe also maintains its own Accessibility Resource Center. This site features links to accessible versions of its most popular software, including:

Another highly useful feature of the Adobe Web site is the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template. A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template, or VPAT, is a standardized form that lists all of the regulations of Section 508 and explains how a given product helps you comply with each regulation. Adobe's VPAT site contains detailed accessibility templates for every product in the Adobe suite.
