Incorrect Link in First Demand Payment Letter:
Friday’s USAC News Brief, referenced below, points to an incorrect hyperlink in Demand Payment Letters (“DPLs”) posted in EPC. Fortunately, this is not a problem affecting the vast majority of applicants. DPLs are sent only when USAC determines that an applicant must return funds as the result of an audit or other post-commitment review. When this occurs, and when the amount is significant, a payment plan is an option if the applicant can demonstrate it cannot repay the funds in a lump sum. The incorrect link in the DPL, which USAC is working to correct, is to the informational Payment Plan (this link is correct) page.
