ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to sections 254(a)(11)(A) 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 material changes to HAVA State plans previously 
submitted by Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas.

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 plans published herewith 
should be made in writing to the chief election official of the 
individual States at the address listed below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 24, 2004, the U.S. Election 
Assistance Commission published in the Federal Register the original 
HAVA State plans filed by the 50 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 submissions from Oklahoma, South Dakota and Texas address 
material changes in the administration of their original State plans 
and, in accordance with HAVA section 254(a)(12), provide information on 
how the State succeeded in carrying out the previous State plan. Among 
other matters, South Dakota and Texas are submitting changes that 
address the HAVA requirements payment allocated to the State in Fiscal 
Year 2004, a prerequisite for the States to receive these funds. 
Oklahoma had previously addressed the use of such funds and appears to 
be making no material changes to that use. (Oklahoma has received its 
2003 and 2004 requirements payments. Texas has received its 2003 
requirements payment. South Dakota's certification for its 2003 
requirements payment is pending.)
    Upon the expiration of 30 days from March 11, 2005, these States 
will be eligible to implement any material changes addressed in the 
plans that are published herein, in accordance with HAVA section 
254(a)(11)(C). At that time, in accordance with HAVA section 253(d), 
South Dakota and Texas also may file a statement of certification to 
obtain the fiscal year 2004 requirements payments. These statements of 
certification must confirm that the State is in compliance with all of 
the requirements referred to in HAVA section 253(b) and must be 
provided to the Election Assistance Commission in order for the State 
to receive a requirements payment under HAVA Title II, Subtitle D.
    EAC notes that plans published herein include only those that have 
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 further 
public comment, in writing, to the chief election official of the 
individual States at the address listed below.
