Website Accessibility

WSSC Water is committed to ensuring the accessibility of its website and digital content for people with disabilities. We are continually working toward improving the user experience of our site for everyone and applying relevant international web accessibility standards. In particular, we are striving to design and develop this site to be compliant with the WCAG 2.0 AA level of compliance.

If you have difficulty accessing any material on our web pages or if you use assistive technology (such as a Braille reader, a screen reader, or TTY) and the format of any material on this website interferes with your ability to access information or have comments and/or feedback, please email us at webmaster@wsscwater.com.  

To enable us to respond in a manner most helpful to you, please indicate the nature of the accessibility problem, the web address of the requested material, your preferred format in which you want to receive the material (electronic format, standard print, large print, etc.), and your contact information. We will make all reasonable efforts to make the website accessible for you.

Documents on the WSSC Water Site

Many of the documents on the WSSC Water site are in HTML or ASCII (plain text) formats. These formats are generally accessible to people who use screen readers. We also have a large number of documents in Adobe Acrobat® Portable Document Format (PDF).

PDF format is used to preserve the content and layout of our hard copy publications. Publications in PDF can only be viewed and printed using the Adobe Acrobat Reader®, version 3.0 or higher. You can download and get help using the Acrobat Reader at the Adobe Systems, Inc. site. The downloadable Acrobat Reader software is available free of charge from Adobe.

Download Acrobat Reader

People using screen-reading devices generally are unable to read documents directly in PDF format, unless they have an accessibility plug-in installed on their system along with the Adobe Acrobat Reader. This plug-in is available free of charge from Adobe. Adobe also has online tools that will convert PDF files to HTML on request. To get the plug-in and latest news about Adobe's accessibility tools and services, visit the Access Adobe site.
