RBRA adopts Social Media Policy; increases opportunities to communicate with the public, June 16, 2022
At its meeting on May 12, 2022, the RBRA Board of Directors adopted a policy to guide the use of social media in communicating with the public. This policy encourages RBRA to use social media, such as Twitter or Facebook and sets expectations for civil discourse. RBRA looks forward to more quickly and easily communicating about the important environmental work we are doing to protect the Bay, the necessary steps we are taking to bring all vessels into compliance with RBRA regulations and BCDC requirements and general information about life in, on and around the Bay.
Richardson Bay Regional Agency is fully committed to providing accessible facilities, elements and
channels of communication to all members of the public. As part of this commitment, Richardson Bay Regional Agency
has a policy of providing an accessible website compatible with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and
commercial screen reading software. All features of the website are coded to allow individuals with vision and
other impairments to understand and use the website to the same degree as someone without disabilities. We welcome
feedback and can often resolve issues in a timely manner if they arise.
If you need any special assistance or accommodations:
Richardson Bay Regional Agency has designated a compliance officer for website disability-related accommodations.
The compliance officer has received training in website accessibility and updates the site in accordance with those best
practices. Contact our accessibility officer to report an issue.

Richardson Bay Regional Agency regularly scans its website to ensure ongoing compliance, and makes timely
changes to any inaccessible changes, if any are found.
