such communications) identifying the provider of wire or electronic 
communication service that has acquired access to the communications.

or authorizing use of a pen register or a trap and trace device under 
chapter 206 or a State statute finds that a telecommunications carrier 
has failed to comply with the requirements in this chapter, the court 
may direct that the carrier comply forthwith and may direct that a 
provider of support services to the carrier or the manufacturer of the 
carrier's transmission or switching equipment furnish forthwith 
modifications necessary for the carrier to comply.

Attorney General may apply to the appropriate United States district 
court for, and the United States district courts shall have 
jurisdiction to issue, an order directing that a telecommunications

        been reasonably achievable if timely action had been taken.
    ``(d) Time for Compliance.--Upon issuance of an enforcement order 
under this section, the court shall specify a reasonable time and 
conditions for complying with its order, considering the good faith 
efforts to comply in a timely manner, any effect on the carrier's, 
manufacturer's, or service provider's ability to continue to do 
business, the degree of culpability or delay in undertaking efforts to 
comply, and such other matters as justice may require.
    ``(e) Limitation.--An order under this section may not require a 
telecommunications carrier to meet the government's demand for 
interception of communications and acquisition of call-identifying 
information to any extent in excess of the capacity for which notice 
has been provided under section 2603.
