Year 7 (FY 2004-2005), Wave 8 E-rate Funding Committed
~ Internal Connections Funded at 90% Level ~
~ File 486 NOW for Priority 1 Services ~
Message Posted July 17, 2004

Congratulations to the following 113 Pennsylvania schools and libraries that
will be receiving Year 7, Wave 8 E-rate Funding Commitment Letters,
totaling $26,782,680.76. This wave contains funding commitments for
internal connections at the 90% discount level, in addition to priority 1
services.

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 few very important notes:

* If you have been funded for priority 1 services in one of the first 8
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 CIPA compliant by July 1, 2004.

Because the funding year has begun, you can file the Form 486 without
checking 6B, the
early filing box. This was just for applicants that submitted their 486
before July 1. The 486 MUST be filed within 120 days of the service start
date (which for priority 1 services, the deadline is almost always October
28) -- or the date on the funding commitment letter, whichever is later.
DON'T WAIT... FILE THE 486 NOW. For applicants requesting discounted bills
this year, the service provider must receive a copy of the 486 approval
letter before they can begin discounting your bills. So the sooner you file
this form, the better.

The 486 can be filed electronically under the "apply online" section of the
SLD's website. You can submit this form electronically even if you don't
have a PIN number. If that's the case, simply hit submit, then 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.

NOTE: If you have been funded for internal connections, you should not file
the 486 until the equipment has been received.

If you don't agree with anything in your funding commitment letter, you
should file an appeal with the SLD within 60 days of the date on your FCDL.
They will not consider any appeals filed after this deadline, so please be
certain to read your funding commitment letter carefully to be sure that you
agree with their decisions. If you'd like my advice on whether it you
should appeal a decision or not, or would like me to review your appeal
letter, please let me know.

If you have any questions, please contact me at jtschell@comcast.net.
