In addition to their free removal service, they offered people the OPTION of going through an outside service called EmailReg.org. EmailReg.org charges $20 for them to spend the time verifying that you are not a spammer, then whitelisting your domain name through a service that spam filter providers can use.
When I think of all the hassles you go through to get every spam filter providers to get your name back off their blocklist if you once had a botnet, paying $20 one time for a company whose business is to verify you are valid is well worth it. But regardless, emailreg.org has nothing to do with Barracuda, since you can use their own removal form for free. By pointing you there, Barracuda is letting you know that you can do this to avoid being blocked elsewhere. It is NOT required for BRBL - it is clearly noted:
