SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Communications Commission published a document amending 47 CFR 1.80 in the Federal Register on November 29, 2012, (77 FR 71131). The amended rules are necessary to implement the enforcement provisions of the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 as applicable to the PSAP Do-Not-Call registry.

Need for Correction
