II. Initiation of Debarment Proceedings 

As discussed above, your guilty plea 

and conviction of criminal conduct in 

connection with the E-Rate program is 

the basis for your immediate suspension 

from the program as well as a basis to 

commence debarment proceedings 

against you. Conviction of criminal 

fraud is cause for debarment as defined 

in Section 54.8(c) of the Commission’s 

rules.25 Therefore, pursuant to Section 

54.8(b) of the rules, your conviction 

requires the Bureau to commence 

debarment proceedings against you.26

As with the suspension process, you 

may contest the proposed debarment or 

the scope of the proposed debarment by 

filing arguments and any relevant 

documentation within thirty (30) 

calendar days of receipt of this letter or 

publication of notice of it in the Federal 

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 

debarment.30 The Bureau may set a 

longer debarment period or extend an 

existing debarment period if necessary 

to protect the public interest.31
