FTC Delays
Enforcement of "Red-Flag Rules"
The Federal Trade Commission has
announced a delay, until November 1, 2009, in enforcement of its
"Red-Flag Rules" promulgated pursuant to the Fair and
Accurate Credit Transactions Act. The rules require certain
businesses and government entities that defer payment for goods and
services, including municipalities that operate public utilities
(water, sewer and electric), to adopt and implement an identity theft
prevention policy. The FTC's
announcement provides additional time to adopt and
implement a policy.
If you would
like to learn more about the FTC annoucement or the "Red-Flag
Rules", contact Kenneth Lane at 616.608.1134 or klane@clarkhill.com or your
Clark Hill Municipal Law attorney.
