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. HAVA anticipated that States, 

Territories and the District of Columbia 

would change or update their plans 

from time to time pursuant to HAVA 

section 254(a)(11) through (13). HAVA 

sections 254(a)(11)(A) and 255 require 

EAC to publish such updates. 

The submission from Virginia 

addresses a material change to the 

administration of their previously 

submitted State plan, specifically how 

the State will meet the voting system 

standards in HAVA section 301(a). The 

document also provides information on 

how the State succeeded in carrying out 

the previous State plan, in accordance 

with HAVA section 254(a)(12). 

Upon the expiration of thirty days 

from September 12, 2005, Virginia will 

be eligible to implement the material 

change addressed in the plan that is 

published herein, in accordance with 

HAVA section 254(a)(11)(C). 

EAC notes that the plan published 

herein has already met the notice and 

comment requirements of HAVA section 

256, as required by HAVA section 

254(a)(11)(B). EAC wishes to 

acknowledge the effort that went into 

revising the State plans and encourages
