            Subpart C_Certification and Eligibility of ACDBEs
 
Sec.  23.31  What certification standards and procedures do recipients use 
to certify ACDBEs?


    (a) As a recipient, you must use, except as provided in this 
subpart, the procedures and standards of part 26, Sec. Sec.  26.61-91 
for certification of ACDBEs to participate in your concessions program. 
Your ACDBE program must incorporate the use of these standards and 
procedures and must provide that certification decisions for ACDBEs will 
be made by the Unified Certification Program (UCP) in your state (see 
part 26, Sec.  26.81).
    (b) The UCP's directory of eligible DBEs must specify whether a firm 
is certified as a DBE for purposes of part 26, an ACDBE for purposes of 
part 23, or both.
    (c) As an airport or UCP, you must review the eligibility of 
currently certified ACDBE firms to make sure that they meet the 
eligibility standards of this part.
    (1) You must complete these reviews as soon as possible, but in no 
case later than April 21, 2006 or three years from the anniversary date 
of each firm's most recent certification, whichever is later.
    (2) You must direct all currently certified ACDBEs to submit to you 
by April 21, 2006, a personal net worth statement, a certification of 
disadvantage, and an affidavit of no change.
