(7) Disapprovals or denials because of a lack of funding. (8) Decisions made by the Administrator or a Deputy Administrator. (b) A participant directly affected by an adverse decision that is determined not to be subject to appeal under this part may request an appealability review of the determination by the State Executive Director of the State from which the underlying decision arose in accordance with § 780.15.
