Darn it - there are actually two similar sounding Acts! There's the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (deals with Title III wiretaps), and then there is the Omnibus Crime Control Act of 1997. Anyone want to assist here? - Ta bu shi da yu15:07, 29 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I'm making a trip into my local law library to try and sort this out, as well as to get a decent summary and review. From what reading I've done so far, the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968's Title III does cover wiretapping (scroll down to p. 17 here), but the full law is farther reaching (see the names of the other titles for a taste of what I mean). I'll post what I find from the law library when I go there. It's going to be about a week before that happens, but don't worry, it's coming :). Blackcap(talk)18:22, 9 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
O.K., that trip was fairly fruitless. All it turned up was a Senate report on the OCCaSSAo1968 (which was a good 197 pages—Jesus!). I photocopied the first three, which gave a decent summary of the law. If you'd like, I can photograph and upload them so that you can take a look. It's just enough to be useful for getting an idea of the scope of the law. Blackcap(talk)00:25, 20 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
The Wiretap Statute is Title III of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (Pub.L. 90-351; 82 Stat. . However, it has since been replaced by the Wiretap Act, which is Title I of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 (18 USC §§ 2510-22). The ECPA updated the original Wiretap Statute, which only included wire and oral communications, to also include electronic communications. Since the original Wiretap Statute is no longer law, and since the Wiretap page is short and fairly identical to the Omnibus page, I would suggest merging the Wiretap Statute page into the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Street Act of 1968 (with a redirect from "Wiretap Statute" to that page). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lindseyas (talk • contribs) 14:54, 17 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
This is referred from the Pension Protection act of 2006

The Pension Protection Act of 2006 borrows the definition of "Public Safety Officer" from this old law. It includes Police, Firefighters, Ambulance crew, and court workers dealing with criminal law.
