Thanks,

Use of the various media is important to all. However, I’m wondering what the EPA does regarding the unauthorized use of the agency name and logo? I recently found a web site for a company in China which is an agent for a U.S. company. This web site uses the EPA logo and even touts that its certificate of accreditation is signed by the EPA. The certificate referenced is for accreditation from Canada. This seems unlawfully deceptive. How does EPA correct this?

I like the improvments on the site.It only makes sense to build off of existing platforms but that doesn’t mean you can’t use variety and ingenuity. Good luck!

Thanks all for your comments. I’m a big believer in consciously striving to ensure usable AND accessible content. Including captioning videos and photos.

I like the new look, but I sincerely hope that the text-based items will remain and be kept current too; not everyone has access to (or can make use of) all the neat techno-toys that work with the cutting edge software. I’m almost always a fan of “choice”; I prefer a “this AND that” approach, rather than “this OR that”. For example, the photo gallery was quite nice, but unless a photo has a meaningful caption that describes the image, a text reader may scroll over it and simply announce “uncaptioned image” or worse yet, remain silent; a visually impaired user could be left with no clue what was on the page. A well-written text article might convey far more to that same user.

Using all communications media is a great idea. You really have to use several media to get as wide an audiance as possible because some people don’t have access to internet connections yet. While others use Facebook and similar sites as their primary communications vehicle even to the extent that they use Facebook instead of a telephone. And many more people rely on television for news and information now than subscribe to newspapers. Reaching out to thepublic, explaining what you do, and building public support has never been so important as it will be this year, Best wishes, Michael E. Bailey.
