47 CFR Part 54

[WC Docket Nos. 22-238, 11-42, 21-450; FCC 23-96; FR ID 258272]


Supporting Survivors of Domestic and Sexual Violence; Lifeline 
and Link Up Reform Modernization

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendments.

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

SUMMARY: On December 5, 2023, the Federal Communications Commission 
(Commission) revised Commission rules. That item showed the 
Commission's adoption of new rules to implement the Safe Connections 
Act of 2022. When published in the Federal Register, however, an 
additional change was made that was different from the item adopted by 
the Commission. This correction reverts the language of the rule to the 
language as adopted by the Commission.

DATES: Effective on November 4, 2024.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nicholas Page, <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#aee0c7cdc6c1c2cfdd80fecfc9cbeec8cdcd80c9c1d8"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8bc5e2e8e3e4e7eaf8a5dbeaeceecbede8e8a5ece4fd">[email protected]</span></a>, 
Telecommunications Access Policy Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, 
(202) 418-7400 or TTY: (202) 418-0484.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This summary corrects the rules published 
December 5, 2023, 88 FR 84406 (FR Doc. 2023-25835). Accordingly, 
paragraph (s), which was added to Sec.  54.400 in the first column on 
page 84446, is corrected to remove `and' at the end of paragraph 
(s)(3). Compliance with these rules began upon announcement in the 
Federal Register (89 FR 70119, August 29, 2024) (FR Doc. 2024-18938).
