Year 6 (FY 2003-2004), Wave 20 Funding Committed
~ No Funding for PA in Waves 18 and 19 ~
Message Posted January 16, 2004
Congratulations to the following 3 Pennsylvania schools that
will be receiving a Year 6, Wave 20 E-rate Funding Commitment
Letters. With this wave, PA's schools and libraries will have been
committed more than $79 million in Year 6.
A summary of the commitment is listed below, and detailed
information is posted on the SLD web site under Funding
Commitments at: http://www.sl.universalservice.org/funding/.
If you find that your funding commitment letter does not arrive
in a timely manner, please call
the SLD ASAP to get a replacement (888-203-8100). All Year 6 correspondence
is being sent in YELLOW.
If you do not agree with your funding commitment decision letter, you have
60 calendar days to appeal from the date listed at the top of your FCDL.
Appeal instructions can be found at:
http://www.sl.universalservice.org/reference/AppealsProcedureYR4.asp.
Please let me know if you have questions concerning an appeal or would like
me to review it before it's submitted.
A few very important notes:
YOUR FCDL IS NOT THE LAST STEP. YOU NOW MUST FILE THE FORM 486.
* The 486 tells the SLD 3 things:
1) that they are authorized to pay invoices (either BEAR or SPIFs)
2) which SLD-certified approver approved your technology plan
3) that you were CIPA compliant by start of services
This form must be filed within 120 of the service start date
or the date on the funding commitment letter, whichever is later. If you
are receiving internal connections
funding, you may want to wait until after the product is delivered or
installed to complete the 486.
The 486 is now available in paper form under the "Forms"
section on the left side of their redesigned website:
http://www.sl.universalservice.org/form/.
If you have any questions, please contact me at jtschell@comcast.net.
