Sec.  636.11  Termination of cost-share agreements.

    (a) The State Conservationist may, by mutual agreement with the 
parties to the cost-share agreement, consent to the termination of the 
contract where:
    (1) The parties to the cost-share agreement are unable to comply 
with the terms of the cost-share agreement as the result of conditions 
beyond their control;
    (2) Compliance with the terms of the cost-share agreement would work 
a severe hardship on the parties to the contract; or,
    (3) Termination of the cost-share agreement would, as determined by 
the State Conservationist, be in the public interest.
    (b) If a cost-share agreement is terminated in accordance with the 
provisions of this section, the State Conservationist may allow the 
participants to retain any cost-share payments received under the cost-
share agreement in a porportion appropriate to the effort the 
participant has made to comply with the cost-share agreement, or, in 
cases of hardship, where forces beyond the participant's control 
prevented compliance with the cost-share agreement.
