Sec. 13.4  Other remedies.

    (a) This regulation does not supersede or require omission or 
duplication of administrative proceedings required by contract, statute,

appeals, or review under a procurement contract.

    (b) The remedies and sanctions available to the Agency under this 
regulation for collecting debts are not intended to be exclusive. The 
Agency may impose, where authorized, other appropriate sanctions upon a 
debtor for inexcusable, prolonged or repeated failure to pay a debt. For 
example, the Agency may stop doing business with a grantee, contractor, 
borrower or lender; convert the method of payment under a grant or 
contract from an advance payment to a reimbursement method; or revoke a 
grantee's or contractor's letter-of-credit.
