In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act and strengthened provisions
covering access to information in the Federal sector for people with
disabilities. As amended, Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires
access to the Federal government's electronic and information technology.
The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure,
maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Federal agencies
must ensure that this technology is accessible to employees and the public.
In support of Section 508, we are dedicated to making all of our web pages
accessible to all of our visitors.
If you find a problem that prevents access, please contact us by sending an
e-mail to the Webmaster.
