ARTICLE 5. CLAIMS OF PERSONS ERRONEOUSLY CONVICTED OF FELONIES Title 2, §§ 640 – 646 The California Victim Compensation Board (CalVCB) proposes to adopt the regulations described below after considering all comments, objections and recommendations regarding the proposed action. PUBLIC HEARING CalVCB has not scheduled a public hearing on this proposed action; however, the Board will hold a hear- ing if it receives a written request for a public hearing from any interested person, or his or her authorized representative, no later than 15 days before the close of the written comment period.
WRITTEN COMMENT PERIOD Any interested individual, or his or her authorized representative, may submit written comments rel - evant to the proposed regulatory action to CalVCB. The written comment period closes on May 16, 2022. CalVCB will consider only comments received at its office by that date. Submit written comments to: Neil Ennes, Legislative Coordinator California Victim Compensation Board P.O. Box 48 Sacramento, CA 95812–0048 Comments may also be submitted by facsimile (FAX) at (916) 491–6441 or by e–mail to regulations@ victims.ca.gov. AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Penal Code
section 4906 authorizes CalVCB to adopt these proposed regulations, as does Government Code
section 13920. The proposed regulatory action is intended to implement, interpret, and make specific Penal Code sections 4900 through 4904, which in turn cross–reference Penal Code sections 861.865, 1485.5 and 1485.55. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW CalVCB processes claims from persons seeking compensation as an erroneously convicted felon pur - suant to California Penal Code sections 4900 through 4906.
A successful claim results in a recommendation by CalVCB to the Legislature to make an appropria - tion for the claimant’s sustained injury in the amount of $140 per day of the claimant’s wrongful imprison - ment. (Pen. Code, § 4904.) To be eligible for consider- ation, the claimant must have been convicted of a fel - ony under California law, for which a prison sentence was imposed, and the claimant must no longer be imprisoned for that offense.
In addition, the claimant must timely submit a verified Erroneous Conviction Claim Form, with supporting documentation, with - in ten years after release from custody, dismissal of charges, judgment of acquittal, or pardon granted, whichever is later. (Pen. Code, § 4901.) Generally, the claimant must prove, by a preponder- ance of the evidence, that (1) they did not commit the crime that resulted in their incarceration and (2) they sustained injury as a result of their erroneous convic - tion. (Pen.
Code, § 4900, subd. (a).) The claimant is entitled to a hearing to prove both of these elements, at which the Attorney General may appear to oppose the claim. (Pen. Code, § 4903, subd. (a).) The Attorney General, as well as CalVCB, are bound by any express factual findings rendered by a court during a habe - as proceeding or motion to vacate, including a find - ing of factual innocence under any standard in that proceeding. (Pen.
Code, §§ 851.865, 1485.5, 1485.55, 4903, subd. (c).) If a court has found the claimant to be factually innocent of the challenged conviction, then both innocence and injury are presumed and CalVCB’s recommendation for compensation is au - tomatically mandated, within 30 days and without a hearing. (Pen. Code, §§ 851.865, 1485.55, subds. (a) & (c), 4902, subd. (a).) No adverse presumption exists for a claimant’s failure to obtain a court finding of factual innocence. (Pen.
Code, § 1485.55, subd. (d).) Alternatively, if the conviction was vacated by a grant of habeas relief or pursuant to Penal Code sec - tion 1473.6 or 1473.7, subd. (a)(2), a recommendation for compensation is required unless the Attorney General timely objects with clear and convicting proof that the claimant is not entitled to compensation. (Pen. Code, §§ 4900, subd. (b), 4902, subd. (d).) At a hearing on the claim, the Attorney General bears the burden to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the claim- ant committed the acts constituting the offense. (Pen.
Code, §§ 4900, subd. (b), 4902, subd. (d), 4903, subd. (b).) The Attorney General may not rely solely upon the trial court record to establish that the claimant
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z 369 is not entitled to compensation. (Pen. Code, § 4903, subd. (d).) This statutory scheme for processing claims under Penal Code
section 4900 has been revised several times over the past decade. In 2021, SB 446 (Glazer,
Chapter 490, Statutes of 2021), reassigned and in - creased the burden of proof for deciding claims in which the underlying conviction was vacated by a grant of habeas corpus or motion under Penal Code
section 1473.6 or 1473.7, subd. (a)(2), while also limit- ing the type of evidence that may satisfy that burden. (Pen. Code, §§ 4900, subd. (b), 4902, subd. (d), 4903, subds. (b) & (d), 4904.) SB 446 further expanded the definition for a finding of factual innocence, as well as the circumstances under which such a finding may be rendered. (Pen. Code, §§ 1485.5, subd. (c), 1485.55, subd. (a).) In 2019, SB 269 (Bradford,
Chapter 473, Statutes of 2019) extended the deadline for filing a claim with CalVCB from two years to ten years after acquittal, pardon, dismissal of charges, or release from custody. (Pen. Code, § 4901.) In 2016, SB 1134 (Leno,
Chapter 785, Statutes of 2016) mandated an automatic recom - mendation for claimants who received a court finding of factual innocence for all convictions underlying their incarceration. In 2015, SB 635 (Nielsen,
Chapter 422, Statutes of 2015) revised the definition of injury to no longer require a showing of pecuniary harm, in - creased the rate of compensation from $100 to $140 per day, and added pre–conviction custodial time to that calculation. In 2013, SB 618 (Leno,
Chapter 800, Statutes of 2013), rendered court findings binding upon CalVCB and barred any presumption for failing to obtain a finding of factual innocence. Despite these significant changes, CalVCB’s regula- tions governing Penal Code
section 4900 claims have not been revised since 2012. As a result, many provi - sions are outdated, incomplete, or contrary to current law. The proposed regulatory action is intended to re - solve all of these issues. Anticipated Benefits of the Proposed Regulation: The proposed regulations will comply with the cur - rent law governing Penal Code
section 4900 claims in accordance with SB 446, as well as SB 269, SB 1134, SB 635, and SB 618. The regulations will also interpret and implement general aspects of the law as applicable to specific circumstances. By doing so, it will provide clear guidance to the parties and enable the Board to decide these claims in a consistent and efficient manner. Evaluation of Inconsistency/Incompatibility with Existing State Regulations: The proposed regulations are not inconsistent or in- compatible with existing state regulations.
DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PROPOSED ACTION The Board has made the following initial determinations: Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. Cost or savings to any state agency: None. Cost to any local agency or school district which must be reimbursed in accordance with Government Code sections 17500 through 17630: None. Other nondiscretionary cost or savings imposed on local agencies: None. Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None.
Cost impacts on a representative private individual or business: The Board is not aware of any cost im - pacts that a representative private person or business would necessarily incur in reasonable compliance with the proposed action. Significant, statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting business including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states: None. Significant effect on housing costs: None.
RESULTS OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS/ASSESSMENT The purpose of the proposed regulations is to re - vise, interpret, and implement the current law govern- ing Penal Code
section 4900 claims. When a claim is approved, it solely results in a recommendation for the Legislature to appropriate funds to compensate the claimant for the injury sustained by their erroneous conviction. Even then, compensation is awarded to a limited group of individuals, historically less than 10 per year on average, although that figure is expected to increase under SB 446. Accordingly, the proposed regulations will not directly impact jobs or the wider economy. The Board has determined that the selected alternative will not affect: (
A) The creation or elimination of jobs within the State of California, The proposed regulations do not impact jobs as they apply to a limited group of individuals seeking a rec - ommendation for compensation as a result of an erro - neous felony conviction for which they were wrong - fully incarcerated. (
B) The creation of new businesses or the elimina - tion of existing businesses within the State of California, and The proposed regulations do not impact the creation of new businesses or elimination of existing business- es in California because they apply to a limited group
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z 370 of individuals seeking a recommendation for compen- sation as a result of an erroneous felony conviction for which they were wrongfully incarcerated. (
C) The expansion of businesses currently doing business within the State of California. The proposed regulations do not impact the expan - sion of businesses currently doing business within the State of California because they apply to a limited group of individuals seeking a recommendation for compensation as a result of an erroneous felony con - viction for which they were wrongfully incarcerated.
The benefits of the regulation to the health and welfare of California residents, worker safety, and the state’s environment: The Board has determined that the proposed regu - lations do not impact worker safety or the state’s envi- ronment because they apply to a limited group of indi- viduals seeking a recommendation for compensation as a result of an erroneous felony conviction for which they were wrongfully incarcerated.
SMALL BUSINESS DETERMINATION The Board has determined that the proposed regula- tions do not affect small businesses because they apply to a limited group of individuals seeking a recommen- dation for compensation as a result of an erroneous felony conviction for which they were wrongfully incarcerated. CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES In accordance with Government Code
section 11346.5, subdivision (a)(13), the Board must determine that no reasonable alternative it considered or that has otherwise been identified and brought to the attention of the agency would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed or would be as effective and less burdensome to affected pri - vate individuals than the proposed action, or would be more cost–effective to affected private persons and equally effective in implementing the statutory policy or other provision of law.
The Board invites interested individuals to present statements or arguments with respect to alternatives to the proposed regulation during the written comment period.

TITLE 5.
EDUCATION AUDIT APPEALS PANEL Supplement to Audits of K–12 Local Education Agencies Fiscal Year 2021–22 as of March 1, 2022 The Education Audit Appeals Panel (EAAP) pro - poses to adopt an Audit Guide for Fiscal Year 2021– 22, Supplemented as of March 1, 2022, as well as the Guide’s incorporating regulation, as described below, after considering all comments, objections, and rec - ommendations regarding the proposed action. The Supplemented Audit Guide will be derived from and incorporated in
Section 19810. PUBLIC HEARING A public hearing regarding this proposal is not cur - rently scheduled. Not later than 15 days prior to the close of the written comment period, any interested person, or his or her authorized representative, may make a written request for a public hearing pursuant to Government Code
section 11346.8, and a public hear- ing will be held. Requests for a public hearing should be addressed to Mary Kelly. WRITTEN COMMENT PERIOD Any interested person, or his or her authorized rep - resentative, may submit written comments relevant to the proposed regulatory action. The written comment period closes on Monday, May 16, 2022. EAAP will consider only written comments received by that time. Written comments for EAAP’s consideration should be directed to: Mary Kelly, Executive Officer Education Audit Appeals Panel 770 L Street, Suite 1100 Sacramento, CA 95814 Fax: (916) 445–7626 e–mail: mkelly@eaap.ca.gov AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Authority cited:
Section 14502.1, Education Code. Reference: Sections 14502.1, 14503, 42010, and 41024 of the Education Code. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW This rulemaking amends title 5, California Code of Regulations,
section 19810 to clarify the incorporation by reference language and make reference to the audit guide. It also adopts the Audit Guide for 2021–22, sup- plemented as of March 1, 2022, with any technical and clarifying revisions and legislative changes that will affect audits and possibly the conditions for apportion- ment of school funding. This supplemental filing en - sures that audits include subjects pertinent to and/or required by legislation through January 1, 2022. This rulemaking meets the requirements of Education Code
section 14502.1, which mandates that an annual audit guide be adopted by EAAP, and the additional laws and Constitutional provisions listed under “Authority cited” below the proposed amended text of
Section 19810, as shown below. The purpose of the audit guide is to define terms and specify proce - dures to guide accountants in the conduct of statuto - rily required financial and compliance audits of K–12 local education agencies. The Controller, in a letter dated January 31, 2022, pursuant to Education Code
section 14502.1, proposed supplemental changes to be reflected in the 2021–22 audit guide. The proposed changes derive from the Controller’s proposals and contain changes designed to clarify audit steps. EAAP does not anticipate that these proposed amendments would create specific benefits for the pro- tection of public health and safety, worker safety, or the environment, the prevention of discrimination, the promotion of fairness or social equity, nor the increase in openness and transparency in business and govern - ment. The regulations direct accountants to perform the steps necessary for the annual audits required by Education Code
Section 41020. EAAP has determined that the proposed amendments will ultimately benefit the welfare of California residents by ensuring that lo- cal education agencies are complying with regulatory requirements, and that educational funds are being properly utilized, which would ultimately affect the quality of students’ educational experiences. In devel- oping the rulemaking, EAAP evaluated the proposed changes to regulations and determined that they are not inconsistent or incompatible with existing regula - tions, state or federal. A description of proposed changes to
section 19810, and a discussion of revisions to the audit guide, follow.

As stated in the Informative Digest/Policy State - ment Overview above, EAAP has determined that the proposed amendments will ultimately benefit the welfare of California residents by en - suring that local education agencies follow regu - latory requirements, and that educational funds are being properly utilized, which would ulti - mately affect the quality of pupils and students’ educational experiences. 9. Cost impact on a representative private person or business: EAAP is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z 374 would necessarily incur in reasonable compli - ance with the proposed action. 10. Business report requirements: None. 11. Effect on small businesses: The proposed regu - lations will have no effect on small businesses because they do not materially alter the require - ments for LEA audits. TECHNICAL, THEORETICAL, OR EMPIRICAL STUDIES, REPORTS, OR DOCUMENTS EAAP relied upon the Controller’s Office letter of January 31, 2022, which proposed changes to the 2021–22 Audit Guide. CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES In accordance with Government Code
Section 11346.5(a)(13), EAAP must determine that no reason- able alternative it has considered or that has otherwise been identified and brought to the EAAP’s attention would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed, would be as effective and less burdensome to affected private persons than the proposed action, or would be more cost–effective to affected private persons and equally effective in im- plementing the statutory policy or other provision of law.

Chapter 1.5 NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULEMAKING The California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (hereafter “Cal OES”) proposes to amend sections 2480.2 and 2480.3 in Title 19 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) after considering all com- ments, objections, and recommendations regarding the proposed action. If adopted, these proposed amend - ments would modify the current reporting threshold percentage and add one provision to the Community Isolation Outage regulations in compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 341. PUBLIC HEARING Cal OES has not scheduled a public hearing on this proposed action.
However, Cal OES will hold a hear - ing if it receives a written request for a public hearing from any interested person, or his or her authorized representative, no later than 15 days before the close of the written comment period. Written requests for
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z 375 a hearing should be submitted to the contact person identified in this notice. WRITTEN COMMENT PERIOD Any interested person, or his or her authorized rep - resentative, may submit written comments relevant to the proposed regulatory action to Cal OES. The writ - ten comment period closes on May 16, 2022. Due to possible delays caused by the COVID–19 emergency, Cal OES strongly recommends that writ - ten comments be submitted electronically, rather than in paper form, to the email listed below.
Written comments can be mailed to: Beth Abdallah Governor’s Office of Emergency Services CA 911 Emergency Communications Branch 601 Sequoia Pacific Blvd. Sacramento, CA 95811 (916) 952–9449 The backup contact person for these inquiries is: Michael Elder, Next Generation 911– Manager Governor’s Office of Emergency Services CA 911 Emergency Communications Branch 601 Sequoia Pacific Blvd. Sacramento, CA 95811 (916) 894–5037 Written comments may also be submitted by e–mail to: regulations@caloes.ca.gov.
AUTHORITY/REFERENCE Government Code sections 8585 and 53122 autho - rize Cal OES to adopt the Proposed the Community Isolation Outage regulations. The proposed regulations implement, interpret, and make specific Government Code
section 53122(b)(1)(B). INFORMATIVE DIGEST/ POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW This rulemaking action modifies the threshold which telecommunications service must report com - munity isolation outages to Cal OES. Currently, an outage that lasts at least 30 minutes and affects at least 50 percent of a carrier’s coverage area in a single zip code must be reported to Cal OES.
However, after the 2021 fire season, Cal OES determined that this threshold was too high because significant outages within the state were not being reported to Cal OES by carriers during the fires, particularly during the Caldor Fire, especially for zip codes with large popu - lations or large geographic areas. The carriers stated that this was because the 50 percent threshold had not been met, which would have triggered state reporting.
Thus, Cal OES proposed amending that threshold to 25 percent instead of 50 percent so that Cal OES can more appropriately capture relevant outage informa - tion that impacts resident’s ability to call 911 and the emergency response within the state. Government Code
section 53122(b)(1)(
B) requires Cal OES to adopt requirements for the public outage maps maintained by telecommunications service pro - viders pursuant to subdivision (f). Those requirements include the outage map format, update requirements, and the level of detail to be included in the public outage maps derived from community isolation out - ages and must be consistent with the requirements of Public Utilities Commission Decision 20–07–011 (July 16, 2020), Decision Adopting Wireless Provider Resiliency Strategies, and Decision 21–02–029 (February 11, 2021), Decision Adopting Wireline Provider Resiliency Strategies. Government Code
section 53122(
f) states: “Upon the adoption of regulations pursuant to subparagraph (
B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (b), each provider of telecommunications service that provides access to 911 service shall maintain on its internet website a public outage map showing that provider’s outages.” The addition of 19 CCR 2480.3(
e) in this rulemaking action would specify requirements for the public out - age maps maintained by telecommunications service on its website. Subsection (
e) provides the format (a map), the requirements for updating (with 60 minutes of the discovery of the outage, and every 6 hours from the most recent notification) which align with their re- porting requirements to the state under Government Code
Section 53122(
c) and 19 CCR 2480.3(
c) and the level of detail (zip codes of the impacted area and type of outage: Wireline, VoIP or Mobile Telephony). NO INCONSISTENCY OR INCOMPATIBILITY WITH EXISTING REGULATIONS Cal OES has determined that the proposed amend - ments are not inconsistent or incompatible with exist - ing regulations. DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PROPOSED ACTION Cal OES has made the following initial determinations: Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. Cost or savings to any state agency: No addition- al costs or savings beyond those imposed by existing law. Cost to any local agency or school district, which must be reimbursed in accordance with
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z 376 Government Code sections 17500 through 17630: None. Other non–discretionary cost or savings imposed on local agencies: No additional costs or savings be - yond those imposed by existing law. Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None. Cost impacts on a representative private person or businesses: No additional costs or savings beyond those imposed by existing law. Therefore, Cal OES is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business would necessarily incur in reasonable compliance with the proposed action.
Statewide adverse economic impact directly af - fecting businesses and individuals: Cal OES has made an initial determination that the proposed action will not have a significant statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting businesses or individuals. Significant effect on housing costs: None. Small Business Determination: C a l O E S a n t i c- ipates that the regulations will not create additional costs or savings beyond those imposed by existing law.
Similarly, Cal OES has determined that there is no impact on small businesses as a result of this proposed action because these regulations primarily serve to modify an existing threshold for reporting and comply with statute. The maps themselves are already required to be posted on the service provid - er’s internet website under Government Code
Section 53122(f). These amendments to the regulations simply provide more information about details to be included in the maps and how regularly they should be updated. RESULTS OF ECONOMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT Cal OES anticipates that the adoption of these amended regulations will not impact the creation or elimination of jobs or businesses within the state or the expansion of businesses currently doing business within the state. Because the proposed amendments will provide transparency regarding telecommunica - tion outages, they benefit the health and welfare of all California residents.
There are no anticipated impacts to worker safety or the state’s environment. CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES In accordance with Government Code
section 11346.5, subdivision (a)(13), Cal OES must determine that no reasonable alternative it considered or that has otherwise been identified and brought to Cal OES’s attention would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which this action is proposed, or would be as effective and less burdensome to affected private persons than the proposed action, or would be more cost–effective to affected private persons and equally effective in implementing the statutory policy or other provision of law.
Cal OES has thus far not become aware of a better alternative and invites interested persons to present al- ternatives to the proposed regulations during the writ- ten comment period.
