Once the Form 471 has been reviewed,
the SLD issues one or more Funding Commitment Decision Letters (FCDLs)
to both the applicant and the service provider, setting out its
decisions for each funding request. Approved or Denied. These
letters are mailed in waves, as decisions are made. If an applicant believes any of its
funding requests have been incorrectly reduced or denied, the
applicant can appeal the SLD decision(s), either to the SLD or to
the FCC. Appeals must be RECEIVED by the SLD or the FCC no later
than 60 days after the date of the SLD decision letter.
