Year 3: Wave 21 E-rate Funding Commitments Listed
Message Posted September 14, 2000
Congratulations to the following 2 Pennsylvania schools and libraries
that will be receiving Year 3, Wave 21 E-rate Funding Commitment Letters,
totaling $91,919.06. A summary of each commitment is listed below, and
detailed information will be posted to the SLD web site
www.sl.universalservice.org on Monday. The actual letters are being
mailed today and should be arriving next week.
* The next step is to file a Form 486. The new form is now available on
the SLD web site and will be mailed separately to all funded applicants explaining the changes.
All Year 3 applicants must use the new form 486.
* Applicants will be allowed to choose between a reimbursement option
(using the BEAR form), or receiving discounts on bills if they file their
486 early. Whichever invoice is submitted first (BEAR or service provider
invoice) is how all future invoices for that FRN must be submitted, so
please make your initial decision wisely.
* If you disagree with a funding commitment decision, an appeal letter
MUST be received at the SLD within 30 days of the date that is on the
decision letter (not the letter's postmark date). There are no exceptions
to this rule. If you find that your funding commitment letter does not
arrive in a timely manner, please let me know as soon as possible so I can
report this to the SLD.
