Accessibility

The site is built toward the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA (external). The target is a page that can be read and operated with a keyboard, with visible focus, labeled fields, and text that still makes sense if color is removed.

How the pages are put together

• A skip link goes to the main content.
• The primary navigation marks the current section.
• Status is written in words. A burgundy border may repeat a notice. It is not the only signal.
• Drawings in the trail standards include a text description in the figure and a caption.
• Forms have labels. The local-record button states that nothing is sent.
• Print styles keep the document code, title, revision, address, and disclaimer, and drop the navigation.

Scripting

Filters in the notice archive are ordinary links and work without scripting. Search lists every instrument in the page; scripting only hides the ones that do not match. Form 01 and the participation request need scripting to compile an on-screen copy. Without it, the fields can still be filled and printed from the browser, and they are still not transmitted.

The pages do not use animation. A reduced-motion setting therefore has nothing to turn off.

Known limits

The visual design is dense, in the manner of an older public information page. Text can be enlarged with the browser. If a table is wider than the screen, it scrolls sideways inside its frame. There is no telephone relay number, because there is no telephone.

If a page blocks you, the limitation can be described on Form 01. That description stays on your machine. It is still the available channel until a monitored address is posted on the contact page.
