    (1) Accepts the recommendation; or
    (2) Reaches a mutually agreeable solution with the state process; or
    (3) Provides the single point of contact with a written explanation 
of the decision in a form the Administrator deems appropriate. The 
Administrator may also supplement the written explanation by telephone 
or other means.
    (b) In any explanation under paragraph (a)(3) of this section, the 
Administrator informs the single point of contact that--
    (1) SBA will not implement its decision for at least 10 days after 
the single point of contact receives the explanation; or
    (2) Because of unusual circumstances the waiting period of at least 
10 days is not feasible.
    (c) For purposes of computing the waiting period under paragraph 
(b)(1) of this section, a single point of contact is presumed to have 
received written notification 5 days after the date of mailing.
