# §4767. Termination of grants


Whenever the [Office](/usc/42/4762.md?p=1), after giving reasonable notice and opportunity for hearing to the [State](/usc/42/4762.md?p=3) or general [local government](/usc/42/4762.md?p=4) concerned, finds—

- (1) that a program or [project](/usc/42/13641.md?p=2) has been so changed that it no longer complies with the provisions of this chapter; or
- (2) that in the operation of the program or [project](/usc/42/13641.md?p=2) there is a failure to comply substantially with any such provision;

the [Office](/usc/42/4762.md?p=1) shall notify the [State](/usc/42/4762.md?p=3) or general [local government](/usc/42/4762.md?p=4) of its findings and no further payments may be made to such government by the [Office](/usc/42/4762.md?p=1) until it is satisfied that such noncompliance has been, or will promptly be, corrected. However, the [Office](/usc/42/4762.md?p=1) may authorize the continuance of payments to those [projects](/usc/42/13641.md?p=2) approved under this chapter which are not involved in the noncompliance.
