ELECTION ASSISTANCE COMMISSION

 
Publication of State Administrative Complaint Procedures Pursuant 
to the Help America Vote Act

AGENCY: U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to sections 253(b)(2) and 255(b) of the Help America 
Vote Act (HAVA), Public Law 107-252, the U.S. Election Assistance 
Commission (EAC) hereby causes to be published in the Federal Register 
the State administrative complaint procedures submitted by thirty-one 
States that had not included these procedures in their State plans 
previously published by EAC in the Federal Register.

DATES: This notice is effective upon publication in the Federal 
Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bryan Whitener, Telephone 202-566-3100 
or 1-866-747-1471 (toll-free).
    Submit Comments: Any comments regarding the procedures published 
herewith should be made in writing to the chief election official of 
the individual States at the address listed below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HAVA section 253(b)(2) requires States, as a 
condition of receiving requirements payments in accordance with HAVA 
sections 251 and 252, to have filed with EAC a plan for the 
implementation of the uniform, nondiscriminatory administrative 
complaint procedures required under HAVA section 402 (or to have 
included such a plan in the State plan filed under HAVA section 254), 
and to have such procedures in place. If the State did not include such 
an implementation plan in its State plan, HAVA section 253(b)(2) 
requires that the requirements of HAVA sections 255(b) and 256 apply to 
the complaint procedures implementation plan. HAVA section 256 requires 
the State to make a preliminary version of the plan available for 
public inspection and comment for thirty days, to publish notice that 
the plan is so available, and to take public comments into account in 
preparing the complaint procedures implementation plan filed with EAC. 
HAVA section 255(b) requires EAC to publish the plan in the Federal 
Register, after the required State public comment period.
    On March 24, 2004, the EAC published in the Federal Register the 
original HAVA State plans filed by the fifty States, the District of 
Columbia and the Territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and 
the U.S. Virgin Islands. 69 FR 14002. Twenty-one States included their 
administrative complaint procedures in their original HAVA State plans. 
On September 30, 2004, EAC published in the Federal Register amendments 
to the State plans submitted by Nevada and South Carolina that also 
included the States' administrative complaint procedures. 69 FR 58630. 
On March 11, 2005, EAC published in the Federal Register amendments to 
Oklahoma's State plan that also included the State's administrative 
complaint procedures. 70 FR 12356. Another thirty-one States have 
submitted plans to implement the administrative complaint procedures 
separately from any State plans filed with EAC. These implementation 
plans are published herein, in accordance with HAVA sections 253(b)(2) 
and 255(b).
    EAC notes that the plans to implement State administrative 
complaint procedures that are published herein include only those that 
have already met the notice and comment requirements of HAVA section 
256, as required by HAVA section 253(b)(2). EAC wishes to acknowledge 
the effort that went into the developing these implementation plans and 
encourages further public comment, in writing, to the State election 
official of the individual States listed below.
    Thank you for your interest in improving the voting process in 
America.
