					 termination action by sending by certified mail, (with return receipt requested) a
					 notice advising the institution of the consequences of the action, the alleged
					 violations on which the action is based, the effective date of the action, and of
					 the institution's right to request a hearing (if the request is in writing and
					 received by the CELP Official at least five (5) days before the date the action is
					 to be effective) and of the right to present written material showing why an action
					 should not take place.
If a hearing is requested, the CELP Official shall set the date
					 and place of the hearing which must be at least twenty (20) days after receipt of
					 the request. No action, other than by Consent Agreement, emergency action, or as
					 otherwise provided in these regulations can take place until after a hearing is held
					 and a decision reached and written notice thereof given.
If the institution does not request a hearing, but submits
					 written material, the CELP Official shall postpone the effective date of the action
					 until after such material is evaluated. All material must be received by the CELP
					 Official within twenty (20) days from the date the institution notifies the
					 California Student Aid Commission of its intention to submit data for consideration.
					 Within thirty (30) days after the material is reviewed, the CELP Official shall
					 notify the institution by certified mail (return receipt requested) that the action
					 is dismissed or will be effective as of the date originally specified.
A limitation, suspension, or termination may not be effective
					 earlier than twenty (20) days after the date on which the notice is mailed unless
					 otherwise provided in these regulations.

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Emergency action by the CELP Official may include,
(a) barring any further CELP processing or
				  guarantee of loans to be made to borrowers to cover the cost of attendance at a
				  school which is the subject of an emergency action or to be made by a lender or a
				  school lender which is the subject of emergency action and,
(b) barring delivery, by a school which is subject
				  of emergency action, of any checks representing CELP loans.
Emergency action does not bar disbursement or delivery of loans
					 guaranteed, prior to the initiation of emergency action, by
(1) lender; or by
(2) a school lender subject to emergency action;
				  or
(3) to a borrower attending a school
				  subject to emergency action unless specific notification is made by the CELP
				  Official to the affected party.
The failure of an institution to conform with the requirements
					 of an emergency action may result in a limitation or termination action being taken
					 and the automatic withdrawal of the loan guarantee on loans disbursed by a lender or
					 school lender after the effective date of the emergency action. All applications
					 held by any party (which are applications for CELP loans for attendance at a school
					 against which emergency action has been taken or for a loan from a lender against
					 which emergency action has been taken) shall be returned directly by the holder
					 thereof to the borrower with an explanation of the action.The notice of emergency
					 action may include a notice of commencement of a limitation, suspension, or
					 termination proceeding under this subpart.
If emergency action ends by being converted into a limitation or
					 termination, then the regulation applicable to limitation or termination shall
					 apply. In any case to which an emergency action does not apply, loans not yet
					 disbursed or delivered shall be treated in accordance with the terms of a Consent
					 Agreement or shall be disbursed or delivered.
