                   TITLE 40--PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT
 
               CHAPTER I--ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
 
                   Subpart C--Post-Award Requirements
 
Sec. 30.41  Recipient responsibilities.

    The standards contained in this part do not relieve the recipient of 
the contractual responsibilities arising under its contract(s). The 
recipient is the responsible authority, without recourse to EPA, 
regarding the settlement and satisfaction of all contractual and 
administrative issues arising out of procurements entered into in 
support of an award or other agreement. This includes disputes, claims, 
protests of award, source evaluation or other matters of a contractual 
nature. Matters concerning violation of statute are to be referred to 
such Federal, State or local authority as may have proper jurisdiction.
