However, on August 8, 2013, Presiding Bishop Marsh announced on the ACA Diocese of the West home page,
On August 8, 2013 Bishop Brian R. Marsh, President of the ACA House of Bishops, with the approval of the House, appointed The Ven. Canon Frederick Rivers, Vicar General and ecclesiastical authority of the Diocese of the West. Canon Rivers has been a clergyman in the diocese for 30 years and has held numerous positions in the administration thereof. Bishop Marsh also announced the appointment of The Rt. Rev. Owen Williams as Episcopal Visitor to our diocese, and in that capacity he will be available for Episcopal acts such as confirmations and ordinations. Bishop Owen Williams is known to most of the diocese from his years at Saint Mark’s in Portland, Oregon.The ACA home page has been down at least since October 31, so good luck trying to find any good information there. So far, e-mails I've sent to various parties, including Bishop Vaughan himself, regarding the specific role the bishop is playing, and his current status in the ACA, have gone without answer.
