RE:
Waiver request submitted by Curtis L. Shepard, former member of the Seventh Planning District Consortium, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2019 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 1289 days late.
Facts:
Curtis Shepard requests a waiver due to the staff transition and his transition from the center director position at the Shreveport Job Corps Center. He submitted his resignation letter for the Seventh Planning District Consortium in June 2019. The executive administrative assistant was also in the process of transitioning and failed to submit the correct disclosure. Since that time, Mr. Shepard has been traveling throughout the states in a corporate capacity with another corporation. He would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
