Whenever the Secretary of the Interior, after reasonable notice
and opportunity for hearing, finds that there is a failure to
expend funds in accordance with the terms and conditions governing
the Federal contribution for such approved projects, he shall
notify the Commonwealth that further payments will not be made to
the Commonwealth from appropriations under this chapter until he is
satisfied that there will no longer be any such failure. Until he
is so satisfied the Secretary of the Interior shall withhold the
payment of any financial contributions to the Commonwealth.
