Sec. 74.41  Recipient responsibilities.

    The standards contained in this section do not relieve the recipient 
of the contractual responsibilities arising under its contract(s). The 
recipient is the responsible authority, without recourse to the 
Secretary, 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 
Federal, State or local authority that may have proper jurisdiction.
