Register, whichever comes first.27 The
Bureau, in the absence of extraordinary
circumstances, will notify you of its
decision to debar within ninety (90)
calendar days of receiving any
information you may have filed.28 If the
Bureau decides to debar you, its
decision will become effective upon
either your receipt of a debarment
notice or publication of the decision in
the Federal Register, whichever comes
first.29
If and when your debarment becomes
effective, you will be prohibited from
participating in activities associated
with or related to the E-Rate program for
three years from the date of
24 See Second Report and Order, 18 FCC Rcd at
9226, para. 70; 47 CFR 54.8(e)(5).

commission of criminal fraud, theft, embezzlement,
forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of
records, making false statements, receiving stolen
property, making false claims, obstruction of justice
and other fraud or criminal offense arising out of
activities associated with or related to the schools
and libraries support mechanism, the high-cost
support mechanism, the rural healthcare support
mechanism, and the low-income support
mechanism.’’ 47 CFR 54.8(c). Associated activities
