During an emergency period— the minimum service standard for Lifeline supported mobile voice service shall provide an unlimited number of minutes per month; the minimum service standard for Lifeline supported mobile data service shall provide an unlimited data allowance each month and 4G speeds, where available; and the Basic Support Amount and Tribal Lands Support Amount, as described in section 54.403 of title 47, Code of Federal Regulations (or any successor regulation), shall be increased by an amount necessary, as determined by the Commission, to offset any incremental increase in cost associated with the requirements in paragraphs
(1)and (2). An emergency period may be extended within a State or any portion thereof for a maximum of six months, if the State, or in the case of Tribal land, a Tribal government, provides written, public notice to the Commission stipulating that an extension is necessary in furtherance of the recovery related to COVID–19. The Commission shall, within 48 hours after receiving such notice, post the notice on the public website of the Commission. The Commission shall adopt, on an expedited basis, any regulations needed to carry out this section. In this section, the term emergency period means a period that— begins on the date of a determination by the Secretary of Health and Human Services pursuant to section 319 of the Public Health Service Act ( 42 U.S.C. 247d ) that a public health emergency exists as a result of COVID–19; and ends on the date that is 6 months after the date on which such determination (including any renewal thereof) terminates, except as such period may be extended under subsection (b).
