E8-17254 Inflation Adjustment of Maximum Forfeiture Penalties Rule This document increases the maximum monetary forfeiture penalties available to the Commission under its rules governing monetary forfeiture proceedings to account for inflation. The inflationary adjustment is necessary to implement the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, which requires federal agencies to adjust ``civil monetary penalties provided by law'' at least once every four years. The increase covers the period between June of the year the particular forfeiture amount was last set or adjusted and June 2007. The increase in the Consumer Price Index for the relevant period was applied to each maximum penalty, and then rounded using the statutorily defined rules to adjust each maximum monetary forfeiture penalty accordingly. The base forfeiture amounts in the Commission's rules remain unchanged by this rule revision. 2008-07-31 2008 7 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/07/31/E8-17254/inflation-adjustment-of-maximum-forfeiture-penalties https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-07-31/pdf/E8-17254.pdf Federal Communications Commission 161 This document increases the maximum monetary forfeiture penalties available to the Commission under its rules governing monetary forfeiture proceedings to account for inflation.
