PART 570_COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANTS--Table of Contents
 
        Subpart I_State Community Development Block Grant Program
 
Sec. 570.493  HUD's reviews and audits.

    (a) General. At least on an annual basis, HUD shall make such 
reviews and audits as may be necessary or appropriate to determine:
    (1) Whether the state has distributed CDBG funds to units of general 
local government in a timely manner in conformance to the method of 
distribution described in its action plan under part 91 of this title;
    (2) Whether the state has carried out its certifications in 
compliance with the requirements of the Act and this subpart and other 
applicable laws; and
    (3) Whether the state has made reviews and audits of the units of 
general local government required by Sec. 570.492.
    (b) Information considered. In conducting performance reviews and 
audits, HUD will rely primarily on information obtained from the state's 
performance report, records maintained by the state, findings from on-
site monitoring, audit reports, and the status of the state's unexpended 
grant funds. HUD may also consider relevant information on the state's 
performance gained from other sources, including litigation, citizens' 
comments, and other information provided by the state. A State's failure 
to maintain records in accordance with Sec. 570.490 may result in a 
finding that the State has failed to meet the applicable requirement to 
which the record pertains.
