PART 226_ADMINISTRATION OF ASSISTANCE AWARDS TO U.S. NON-GOVERNMENTAL 
 
                 Subpart D_After-the-Award Requirements
 
Sec.  226.73  Collection of amounts due.

    (a) Any funds paid to a recipient in excess of the amount to which 
the recipient is finally determined to be entitled under the terms and 
conditions of the award constitute a debt to the Federal Government. 
USAID reserves the right to require refund by the recipient of any 
amount which USAID determines to have been expended for purposes not in 
accordance with the terms and condition of the award, including but not 
limited to costs which are not allowable in accordance with the 
applicable Federal cost principles or other terms and conditions of the 
award. If not paid within a reasonable period after the demand for 
payment, USAID may reduce the debt by:
    (1) Making an administrative offset against other requests for 
reimbursements,
    (2) Withholding advance payments otherwise due to the recipient, or
    (3) Taking other action permitted by law.
    (b) Except as otherwise provided by law, USAID will charge interest 
on an overdue debt in accordance with 4 CFR Chapter II, ``Federal Claims 
Collection Standards.''
