(b) Default. A recipient of a Program grant who fails to abide by the terms of the grant agreement or the act or this chapter shall be in default. In the event of a default, the Secretary may cancel the grant and seek recovery of the grant funds as set forth in § 138j.12 (relating to right of recovery).

(3) A narrative report stating the project objectives and setting forth what objectives were accomplished and the methods used to accomplish the stated objectives.

(d) Failure to verify. If a fully completed final report containing the required receipts, records, documentation and narrative is not submitted within the 3-month period or a portion of the grant proceeds are not accounted for, the Secretary may demand the recipient repay the entire amount of the grant or a lesser amount. The demand will be made in writing and delineate the deficiencies in the verification documents. The recipient shall have 30 days, from the receipt of written notice, to remedy the stated deficiencies or payment shall be due within 60 days of the written demand.
