All deliverables must be received and accepted in writing by Department's Grant Manager before payment.The Grantee shall work diligently to correct all deficiencies in the deliverable that remain outstanding,within a reasonable time at Grantee's expense.If Department's Grant Manager does not accept the deliverables within 30 days of receipt,they will be deemed rejected. b. Rejection of Deliverables. The Department reserves the right to reject deliverables,as outlined in the Grant Work Plan,as incomplete,inadequate,or unacceptable due,in whole or in part,to Grantee's lack of satisfactory performance under the terms of this Agreement.The Grantee's efforts to correct the rejected deliverables will be at Grantee's sole expense.Failure to fulfill the applicable technical requirements or complete all tasks or activities in accordance with the Grant Work Plan will result in rejection of the deliverable and the associated invoice. Payment for the rejected deliverable will not be issued unless the rejected deliverable is made acceptable to Department in accordance with the Agreement requirements. The Department,at its option,may allow additional time within which Grantee may remedy the objections noted by Department.The Grantee's failure to make adequate or acceptable deliverables after a reasonable opportunity to do so shall constitute an event of default. 7.

Upon Department's notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP, Grantee shall have ten(10) days to commence implementation of the accepted plan. Acceptance of the proposed CAP by Department does not relieve Grantee of any of its obligations under the Agreement.
