Sec. 185.101  Purpose.

    This subpart implements the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 
1986, Public Law 99-509, 6101-6104, 100 Stat. 1874 (October 21, 1986), 
codified at 31 U.S.C. 3801-3812. Section 3809 requires each authority 
head to promulgate regulations necessary to implement the provisions of 
the statute. The subpart establishes administrative procedures for 
imposing civil penalties and assessments against persons who make, 
submit, or present, or cause to be made, submitted, or presented, false, 
fictitious, or fraudulent claims or written statements to authorities or 
to their agents, and specifies the hearing and appeal rights of persons 
subject to allegations of liability for such penalties and assessments. 
The moneys collected as a result of these procedures are deposited as 
miscellaneous receipts in the Treasury of the United States.
