Reverts #374 which reverted #340. Too quick of a merge.

For service outages, check the [B.C. Data Catalogue status page](https://catalogue-status.data.gov.bc.ca/), which includes monitoring for WMS and WFS GetCapabilities requests.

For catalogue or web mapping support, use the [Data Systems & Services support portal](https://dpdd.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1). Select "Data Requests" for catalogue support or "Web Mapping Requests and Services" for web mapping support.

I suggest we not route users through the the API team.

We only get a handful (or less) of issues related to API outages per year and I think the trade-off of us handling those issues is a better balance versus adding the cognitive load to users to understand if their issue is the API service or bcdata and then to figure out where to log an issue.
