Current through Register Vol. 24-18, September 15, 2024
If an eligible organization or endorsed team receives a
notice of noncompliance, the organization or team may demonstrate compliance as
follows:
(1)
Correction of
application. For notices of noncompliance for an eligible organization's
application:
(a) An eligible organization has
30 calendar days from the date of the notice of noncompliance to submit proof
of all corrected deficiencies.
(b)
The authority reviews the supplemental information and responds to the eligible
organization within 30 calendar days of receipt.
(c) If the organization or team fails to
timely submit proof of the corrected deficiency, the authority denies the
application.
(2)
Correction of endorsement standards. An endorsed team has 30
calendar days from the date of the notice of noncompliance to submit proof of
all corrected deficiencies.
(a) An endorsed
team must submit:
(i) Documentation proving
compliance with standards; or
(ii) A
plan to be approved by the authority to correct noncompliant compliance
procedures within 90 calendar days of the notice of noncompliance, or
both.
(b) The endorsed
team must provide the authority with evidence of the correction within 90
calendar days of the notice of noncompliance.
(c) The authority reviews the evidence of the
correction and, within 30 calendar days of receipt, determines whether the team
is compliant.
(d) If the
authority's evaluation confirms the endorsed team has satisfied the
requirements for compliance, the authority provides written notice confirming
the team's compliance.
(e) If an
endorsed team fails to satisfy the requirements for compliance within the
30-day period, the authority issues a 90-calendar-day suspension notice. A
suspended team is not eligible for supplemental performance payments during its
suspension, and the suspension may impact the team's priority response status
within the regional dispatch protocols.
(f) If an endorsed team fails to satisfy the
requirements for compliance within the suspension period, the authority issues
a notice of revocation of endorsement.
(3)
Endorsement revocation. The
authority sends an eligible organization a notice of noncompliance that may
result in an endorsement revocation if the eligible organization fails to:
(a) Timely renew its endorsement every three
years; or
(b) Remedy the cause of a
suspended endorsement.
(4)
Surrender of endorsement. An
endorsed team may surrender its endorsement at any time. A team that surrenders
its endorsement may continue to operate, but is no longer eligible to receive
enhanced payments or supplemental performance payments.
