Machine Validation
Results.
Several machine validation applications are used to test for conformance
to published accessibility standards, primarily the Web Content
Accessibility Guidelines [WCAG] specification version 1.0.
Machine testing and validation does not indicate possible accessibility
problems that require human review of the content and its code.
Any errors or discrepancies picked up through machine validation and an
analysis of the human review of the site's content and code is explained
within the
Addendum to the Accessibility Policy[ND].
The Audit Trail.
Content undergoes continual accessibility verification during its
development. Periodically, reports are generated to function as an audit
trail for substantiating compliance by machine validation of the content.

Full Audit Report.

.
The report will open within a new browser window. The report, itself,
was compiled by an independent software application. The report uses
frames and has not been adjusted to meet accessibility standards.
Within the audit, all available Site Quality Reports were run.
When checking any individual Site Quality Report and it reads:
“The Selected Site Quality Report was Not Generated.
There was either no data found to generate it or it was not selected to
be generated.”
It means that no errors were present and thus no data was generated
for the specific report.
If you have any questions regarding any issues or questions
concerning accessibility, please

Function and Purpose of an Audit Trail
Report.
Any Web site that contains an Accessibility Statement should periodically
perform audits on the site's compliance. Those audit reports should be
made available publicly through the Web site for review and inspection.
Any discrepancies within published guidelines and the audit of both
machine and human review, should be explained within a separate
statement.
The basis for this is for both education and to verify a good faith
effort in compliance in the event of any legal challenge that may be
made against the Web site's Accessibility Policy and Compliance.
