As set out in the relevant funding decisions, each recipient must file a project holdback report by the due dates set out below. Holdback funds will be released only once the recipient has demonstrated to the Commission’s satisfaction that the recipient has been operating the network for one year in accordance with the conditions set out in its funding decision and described in its approved statement of work.
