SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) is 
correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on

Connections Act of 2022 (Safe Connections Act or SCA), taking 
significant steps to improve access to communications services for 
survivors of domestic abuse and related crimes.

DATES: 
    Effective date: This correction is effective January 14, 2024.
    Compliance date: Compliance with the revisions to 47 CFR 64.2010 is 
delayed indefinitely. The FCC will publish a document in the Federal 
Register announcing the compliance date for that section.

Melissa Kirkel at [email protected] or 202-418-7958.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission is correcting a final rule 
that appeared in the Federal Register on December 5, 2023, at 88 FR 
84406, which issued final rules implementing the SCA, taking 
significant steps to improve access to communications services for 
survivors of domestic abuse and related crimes. A subsequent rule 
published on December 8, 2023, at 88 FR 85814, also added a paragraph 
(h) to Sec.  64.2010. This document corrects the December 5 rule's

revising it to account for a reference within.
