The submissions from Iowa, Mississippi, and North Carolina address material changes to their original State plans. Iowa provides additional detail regarding various aspects of HAVA implementation. Mississippi addresses a change in the State's approach to procuring new voting equipment and provides an updated timeline for the implementation of the required statewide voter registration database. North Carolina provides a revised budget for the use of HAVA funds received. In accordance with HAVA section 254(a)(12), the documents also provide information on how the States succeeded in carrying out their previous State plan. Upon the expiration of 30 days from June 29, 2005, Mississippi and North Carolina will be eligible to implement any material changes addressed in the State plan published herein, in accordance with HAVAsection 254(a)(11)(C).
EAC notes that the plans published herein have already met the notice and comment requirements of HAVA section 256, as required by HAVA section 254(a)(11)(B).
