Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 246 / Tuesday, December 28, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
111.43b applies to reports that are election sensitive.15 Each penalty schedule contains two columns of penalties, one for late-filed reports and one for non-filed reports, with penalties based on the level of financial activity in the report and, if late-filed, its lateness.16 In addition, 11 CFR 111.43c establishes a civil monetary penalty for situations in which a committee fails to file a report and the Commission cannot calculate the relevant level of activity.
Finally, 11 CFR 111.44 establishes a civil monetary penalty for failure to file timely reports of contributions received less than 20 days, but more than 48
hours, before an election. See 52 U.S.C.
30104a6.
To determine the adjusted civil monetary penalty amount for each level of activity, the Commission multiplies the most recent penalty amount by the COLA ratio and rounds that figure to the nearest dollar. The new civil monetary
penalties are shown in the schedules in the rule text, below.
