Sec.  1486.505  Can a Recipient appeal the determinations of the Director, CRS?

    (a) A Recipient may appeal the determinations of the Director, CRS, 
to the Deputy Administrator, CMP. The request must be in writing and be 
submitted to the Office of the Deputy Administrator, CMP, within 30 days 
following the date of the original determination. The Recipient may 
request a hearing.
    (b) If the Recipient submits its appeal and requests a hearing, the 
Deputy Administrator, or the Deputy Administrator's designee, will set a 
date and time, generally within 60 days. The hearing will be an informal 
proceeding. A transcript will not ordinarily be prepared unless the 
Recipient bears the cost of the transcript; however, the Deputy 
Administrator or designee may have a transcript prepared at FAS's 
expense.
    (c) The Deputy Administrator or the Deputy Administrator's designee 
will base the determination on appeal upon information contained in the 
administrative record and will endeavor to make a determination within 
60 days after submission of the appeal, hearing, or receipt of any 
transcript, whichever is later. The determination of the Deputy 
Administrator will be the final determination of FAS. The Recipient must 
exhaust all administrative remedies contained in this section before 
pursuing judicial review of a determination by the Deputy Administrator.
