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.
