This is normal for HHS agencies, and some other Departmennts. While a VPAT
is a little overkill for the file types mentioned, agencies often have a
checklist for those which is used in place of a VPAT. HHS' are located at:
https://www.hhs.gov/web/section-508/making-files-accessible/index.html. I
would recommend asking your COR if they have similar checklists, or ask to
talk to the agency 508 Coordinator if the COR dioesn't know.
