regulations.

employed workers; will not reduce regular hours worked, wages, or benefits; will not be used
as a replacement for a position from which a person has been laid off; will not impair existing
contracts or result in the substitution of Federal funds for other funds in connection with
work that would otherwise be done. See Host Agency Handbook for more information on
