(a) Remedies for noncompliance. If a grantee or subgrantee
materially fails to comply with any term of an award, whether stated in
a Federal statute or regulation, an assurance, in a State plan or
application, a notice of award, or elsewhere, the awarding agency may
take one or more of the following actions, as appropriate in the
circumstances:
(1) Temporarily withhold cash payments pending correction of the
deficiency by the grantee or subgrantee or more severe enforcement
action by the awarding agency,
(2) Disallow (that is, deny both use of funds and matching credit
for) all or part of the cost of the activity or action not in
compliance,
(3) Wholly or partly suspend or terminate the current award for the
grantee's or subgrantee's program,
(4) Withhold further awards for the program, or
(5) Take other remedies that may be legally available.
