Sacramento Metropolitan Fire
District is committed to making its website accessible to the public.
Metro’s websites continually undergoes review and redesign as necessary to
ensure that they meet or exceed the requirements of Section 508 Amendments
of the Rehabilitation Act of 1998.
"In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act to require Government
agencies to make their electronic and information technology accessible to
people with disabilities. Inaccessible technology interferes with an
individual's ability to obtain and use information quickly and easily.
Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers in information technology,
to make available new opportunities for people with disabilities, and to
encourage development of technologies that will help achieve these goals.
The law applies to all Government agencies when they develop, procure,
maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Under Section 508
(29 U.S.C. ‘ 794d), agencies must give disabled employees and members of
the public access to information that is comparable to the access
available to others."
Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District acknowledges its obligation to serve
its citizens who use assistive technology or who may have other needs,
which may be served through Section 508 design principles.
