Sec. 18.52  Collection of amounts due.



    (a) Any funds paid to a grantee in excess of the amount to which the 

grantee is finally determined to be entitled under the terms of the 

award constitute a debt to the Federal Government. If not paid within a 

reasonable period after demand, the Federal agency may reduce the debt 

by:

    (1) Making an adminstrative offset against other requests for 

reimbursements,

    (2) Withholding advance payments otherwise due to the grantee, or

    (3) Other action permitted by law.

    (b) Except where otherwise provided by statutes or regulations, the 

Federal agency will charge interest on an overdue debt in accordance 

with the Federal Claims Collection Standards (4 CFR Ch. II). The date 

from which interest is computed is not extended by litigation or the 

filing of any form of appeal.
