FAQ

What will happen to external links that currently point to DEQ web pages?
All DEQ website URLs are changing and all external URLs pointing to the DEQ website will break.

We used a data-driven approach to this phase of the project, developing a revised website navigation structure based on feedback and testing from more than 1,000 survey responses from our staff, external stakeholders, and the public. The new menu will be organized by program with shortcuts and multiple pathways to existing content.

Although URLs are changing, we are implementing best practices to manage this transition by utilizing redirects and creating a custom error page with information on how to find what users are looking for. We are also undertaking an internal effort to update as many existing documents and platforms containing links to DEQ’s website, both internally and externally.

We understand that URLs changing and breaking may be frustrating when access to DEQ’s website and information is paramount for users. We encourage users to stay informed with the most up-to-date information by bookmarking this page (don’t worry, this page will be redirected after the transition), following DEQ on social media, and subscribing to email updates on the project. DEQ will continue to share important project timeline updates via these channels.

Will DEQ be changing content?
The focus on this renovation is on reorganization of existing content; however, DEQ programs may chose to consolidate, add, and/or remove content as needed.
