* PLEASE NOTE: THIS E-MAIL CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE
FUNDING FREEZE AS WELL AS INFORMATION FOR WAVE 10 APPLICANTS. *
Year 7 (FY 2004-2005), Wave 10 E-rate Funding Committed
~ Only priority 1 funded in Wave 10 ~
Message Posted December 2, 2004
As you know, there has been a freeze on all new E-rate commitments since
August 4 due to a drastic change in the USAC accounting procedures. THIS
ACCOUNTING ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED, however, since August, they have
been able to collect enough money into the fund to issue a single wave of
commitments. We do not know when the next wave will come, but it likely
will be a small wave, issued in January. Because of the new priority of
issuing funding, as outlined in a previous e-mail, priority 1 requests are
being funded first, in the order that they were reviewed and approved by
PIA. It is only after priority 1 applications have been funded will they
resume funding for internal connections. We have asked the SLD to at least
issue the threshold by which IC will be funded -- or not.
Please note that we are working with an enormous coalition in DC to get
Congress to pass HR 5419 before they adjourn, a bill which contains the
language to remove E-rate from the Anti-Deficiency Act. Unfortunately, this
language was not included in the omnibus budget bill that was sent to the
President at Thanksgiving. However because Congress did not pass the
terrorism 911 bill, they are scheduled to return to DC on December 7 and 8,
and there is a slim chance that they will also pass HR 5419. If that
language is not passed, the slow, torturous pace at which funding is
committed will continue, not only for Year 7, but for each and every funding
year hereafter. So even if you were one of the lucky applicants funded in
waves 1-9 for Year 7 and not affected by the funding freeze this year, you
will be affected by the funding delays next year.
If HR 5419 does not pass next week, please know that we are actively working
with the FCC to come up with some short term fix to this problem. I will
keep you posted on all sides of these developments.
If you are listed below and receiving Wave 10 E-rate funding commitments,
your pink letter will arrive next week and 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 were 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 date on the funding commitment letter. Therefore, for Wave 10 entities,
the deadline is: APRIL 23, 2005.
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 internal connections
application includes wiring work, the 486 should be filed within 120 days of
the service beginning.
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.
