which the programs are offered shall have 180 days from the date of the Commission's
determination to formulate and present to the Commission a joint plan to eliminate
the duplication.

(iii) If in the Commission's judgment the plan satisfactorily
eliminates the duplication, the governing board of the affected institutions shall be so
notified and shall take appropriate steps to implement the plan.

eliminate the duplication, or if no plan is jointly submitted within the time period
