I copied this from an email that was posted on the NAGDU list.

·         On complementary paratransit or other demand responsive services,
 transit agencies may ask riders for notification of their intent to ride
 with a service animal in order to help ensure adequate space is available
 for the animal. (An optional good practice is to keep such information in
 riders’ files.)

Since there was recently a problem like this on paratransit we should
be asking if they keep information about riders traveling with a
service animal.
