E-Rate Program Sample Clauses
The E-Rate Program clause defines the obligations and requirements related to compliance with the federal E-Rate program, which provides discounts to schools and libraries for telecommunications and internet access. This clause typically outlines the provider's responsibility to supply necessary documentation, maintain eligibility, and cooperate with audits or requests from the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC). Its core function is to ensure that both parties adhere to E-Rate rules, thereby enabling the customer to receive funding and avoid disqualification or penalties.

E-Rate Program. From 2006 until the present, ▇▇▇▇ has participated in the federal Schools and Libraries Universal Service Fund Program (the “E-Rate Program”), which is run by the Federal Communications Commission. The E-Rate Program permits eligible schools and libraries to obtain and install telecommunications and internet-related infrastructure equipment at heavily discounted prices subsidized by the government. From 2007 to 2015, ▇▇▇▇ sought $13,859,648.52 in E-Rate funding. Of these requests, CUTA obtained $4,103,826.84 in disbursements. During this time period, CUTA obtained its E-Rate-eligible goods and services from several vendors that defrauded the E-Rate Program. For example, during this time period, CUTA’s most commonly-used E-Rate Program vendor was Hashomer Alarm, owned by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ and several others were convicted in 2020 for conspiracy to defraud the E-Rate Program through ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, among other entities. CUTA acknowledges that, during the 2007 to 2015 time period, CUTA used the E-Rate Program funds to install technology-related infrastructure or to purchase equipment that was not necessary to serve an educational purpose at the time it was purchased. From 2016 to the present, under the supervision of a new Executive Director, CUTA sought additional funding from the E-Rate Program. The company represents that all funds requested since 2016 have been bonafide requests for qualifying educational purposes.
