Our Commitment to Web Accessibility

Coastal Elec­tric Coop­er­a­tive is com­mit­ted to pro­vid­ing a ful­ly acces­si­ble web­site expe­ri­ence for all users of all abil­i­ties, includ­ing those who rely on assis­tive tech­nolo­gies like screen read­ers, screen enlarge­ment soft­ware, and alter­na­tive key­board input devices to nav­i­gate the web.

Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility

Web­site acces­si­bil­i­ty is an ongo­ing process. We con­tin­u­al­ly test con­tent and fea­tures for WCAG 2.1 Lev­el AA com­pli­ance and reme­di­ate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the stan­dards. Test­ing of our web­site is per­formed by our team mem­bers using indus­try-stan­dard tools, col­or con­trast ana­lyz­ers, key­board-only nav­i­ga­tion tech­niques, and read­abil­i­ty tests.

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, please let us know. To enable us to respond in a man­ner most help­ful to you, please indi­cate the nature of your acces­si­bil­i­ty prob­lem, the pre­ferred for­mat in which to receive the mate­r­i­al, the web address of the request­ed mate­r­i­al, and your con­tact infor­ma­tion. Users who need acces­si­bil­i­ty assis­tance can also con­tact us by phone through the Fed­er­al Infor­ma­tion Relay Ser­vice at 1–800-877‑8339 for TTY/Voice com­mu­ni­ca­tion.
