Year 7 (FY 2004-2005), Wave 4 E-rate Funding Committed
Message Posted June 3, 2004
Congratulations to the following 156 Pennsylvania schools and libraries that
will be receiving Year 7, Wave 4 E-rate Funding Commitment Letters, totaling
$2,629,858.58.
** Wave 4 is slightly larger than Wave 3, but certainly does not get us to
the point we've been in previous years. Here are the figures for PA:
Yr 6 Waves 1-4: $25.5 million / 1082 applicants funded
Yr 7 Waves 1-4: $5.2 million / 506 applicants funded
Almost all states are experiencing the same low numbers. Apparently the SLD
is now focusing more of their resources on reviewing larger dollar
applications, as those applicants have normally not received their FCDLs
until very, very late in the funding year. Therefore, the smaller
applications aren't being reviewed as quickly as in previous years (which
are mostly what we have in PA). The good news is that it appears that most
applicants will receive an FCDL by the end of September.
A summary of each commitment is listed below, and detailed
information will be posted next week 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 7 correspondence
will be sent in PINK.
A wave will be arriving every other week until the Year 7 funding is
exhausted. This wave consists of 471 applications that ONLY contained
requests for Priority 1 services
(telecom and Internet). There are many, many more waves coming, and your
commitment likely will be in one of the upcoming waves.
A few very important notes:
* If you have been funded in one of the first 4 waves, the next step is to
file the Form 486 which tells the SLD 3 things:
1) that they are authorized to pay invoices (either BEAR or SPIFs)
2) that your technology plan has been approved (and by which SLD-certified
approver)
3) that you are or will be CIPA compliant by July 1, 2004. If you would like
to get a jump start and file your 486 before the funding year begins, you
may do so if:
1) your technology plan has been approved
2) you are CIPA compliant
3) services will begin by July 31, 2004
If all 3 of these statements is correct, you may file the 486 and check item
6B on the Form 486 (for early filing) and must have your Form 486 is
postmarked by July 31. If any of these is not true, you must wait until
services actually begin (after July 1, 2004), then file your Form 486 within
120 of the service start date or the date on the funding commitment letter,
whichever is later.
The 486 should be available to be filed electronically under the "apply
online" section of the SLD's website in the next few days. You can submit
this form electronically even if you don't have a PIN number. If that's the
case, simply print out the signature page and mail that to the SLD. If you
would prefer to file the paper form, it's located on the SLD's website under
the "SLD Forms" section.
If you have any questions, please contact me at jtschell@comcast.net.
