Proposed Project: Grants for Hospital Construction and Modernization--
Federal Right of Recovery and Waiver of Recovery (42 CFR, Subpart H) 
(OMB No. 0915-0099)--Extension

    The regulation known as ``Federal Right of Recovery and Waiver of 
Recovery,'' provides a means for the Federal Government to recover 
grant funds and a method of calculating interest when a grant-assisted 
facility under Title VI and/or XVI is sold or leased, or there is a 
change in use of the facility. It also allows for a waiver of the right 
of recovery under certain circumstances. Facilities are required to 
provide written notice to the Federal Government when such a change 
occurs; and to provide copies of sales contracts, lease agreements, 
estimates of current assets and liabilities, value of equipment, 
expected value of land on the new owner's books and remaining 
depreciation for all fixed assets involved in the transactions, and 
other information and documents pertinent to the change of status.
