 It is the responsibility of the FFL to ensure that the Ephrata Police Department receives the FTAs by the close of business day or if the application is processed after 4:30pm by the close of the following business day. If you have not been notified of a proceed or a delay within 5 business days of submitting the FTA, resend the application or contact us to confirm that we have received the application.  Per federal statute, this document must be destroyed within 20 days. Previously processed NTNs cannot be retrieved and the FFL will be directed to resubmit the application.
