The Recipient agrees that the most recent of such Federal laws, regulations, and directives will apply to the administration of the Project at any particular time, except to the extent that FTA determines otherwise in writing.

To accommodate changing Federal requirements, the Recipient agrees to include in each agreement with each subrecipient, each lease, each third party contract, and other similar document implementing the Project notice that Federal laws, regulations, and directives may change and that the changed provisions will apply to the Project, except to the extent that FTA determines otherwise in writing.
