   the characteristics of which can affect compliance of such device with

   equipment must also include a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity or a
   certification from a Telecommunications Certification Body.

   user's manual or as a separate document enclosed with the terminal

   for the protective circuitry shall include with each module of such
   circuitry, a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity containing the
   information required under §  68.340(a), and the responsible party of
   such terminal equipment shall include such statement with each unit of

   Declaration of Conformity freely available to the general public on its
   company website. The information shall be accessible to the disabled

   inform the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments of such
   circumstances, and the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
   shall make a copy available on its website.
