"In the removal request, the entity (or its designated representative) should provide information that demonstrates that the entity no longer meets or does not meet the criteria" of the UFLPA, it said. "Upon receipt of the removal request, the FLETF Chair or the Chair's designated representative may contact the entity on behalf of the FLETF regarding questions on the removal request and may request additional information. Following review of the removal request by the FLETF member agencies, the decision to remove an entity from the UFLPA Entity List will be made by majority vote of the FLETF member agencies." Entities can also request a meeting with the FLETF, it said. FLETF member agencies can also recommend additions to the list, it said. "The decision to add an entity to the UFLPA Entity List will be made by majority vote of the FLETF member agencies," it said.
