Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) annually monitor multipurpose senior centers having received Title III funding for acquisition and construction. The AAAs are entitled to recover Title III funds:
    (1)   if within ten years after acquisition or within 20 years after the completion of construction the:
    (A)   owner of the facility ceases to be a public or non-profit private agency or organization; or
    (B)   facility ceases to be used for the purpose for which it was acquired unless, in accordance with regulations, there is no good cause for releasing the applicant or other owner from the obligation.
    (2)   in an amount which bears to the then value of the facility, or so much thereof as constituted an approved project or projects, the same ratio as the amount of such federal funds bore to the cost of the facility financed with the aid of such funds. Such value is determined by agreement of the parties or by action brought in the United States district court for the district in which such facility is situated.
