5 C.F.R. § 950.304 Responsibilities of local federations.
Title 5 - Administrative Personnel
(a) Local federations must ensure that only those member organizations that comply with all eligibility requirements included in these regulations are certified for participation in the CFC. (b) If the LFCC requests information supporting a certification of local eligibility, that information shall be furnished promptly. Failure to furnish such information within 10 business days of the receipt of the request constitutes grounds for the denial of local eligibility. (c) The Director, upon recommendation by the LFCC, may elect to decertify a federation which makes a false certification for up to one campaign year, subject to the requirement that any federation that the Director proposes to decertify shall be offered the opportunity to have a hearing on the record on the proposed decertification, followed by a written decision stating the grounds for the decertification. False certifications are presumed to be deliberate. The presumption may be overcome by evidence presented at the hearing. (d) The failure of a local federation to respond in a timely fashion to a request by the Director or the LFCC for required information or cooperation in an investigation may be grounds for decertification, provided that a decision to decertify is preceded by a hearing on the record and communicated in writing. (e) Each federation, as fiscal agent for its member organizations, must ensure that Federal employee designations are honored in that each member organization receives its proportionate share of receipts based on the results of each individual campaign.
