§ 90.64
Speedy notice to victims.
(a) In general. A State or unit of local
government shall not be entitled to 5
percent of the funds allocated under this

the victim to engage in sexual

may submit a letter from an appropriate
legal authority in the jurisdiction
certifying that the jurisdiction does not
have the authority to prosecute
‘‘crime[s] in which by force or threat of
force the perpetrator compels the victim
to engage in sexual activity’’ and that
therefore the certification is not relevant

2014, a document concerning an Order
on Reconsideration (Order) affirming
the Commission’s commitment to
ensuring that high quality telephone
service must be available to all
Americans. In the Order, the
Commission established rules to combat
extensive problems with successfully
completing calls to rural areas, and
created a framework to improve the
ability to monitor call problems and
take appropriate enforcement action. In
the Order, the Commission denies
several petitions for reconsideration
that, if granted, would impair the
Commission’s ability to monitor, and
take enforcement action against, call
completion problems. The Commission
does, however, grant one petition for
reconsideration because the
Commission finds that modifying its
original determination will significantly
lower providers’ compliance costs and
burdens without impairing the
Commission’s ability to obtain reliable
and extensive information about rural
call completion problems.
This rule corrects an amendment
that contains new or modified
information collection requirements that
will not be effective until approved by
the Office of Management and Budget.
The Federal Communications
Commission will publish a document in
the Federal Register announcing the
effective date.
