Finding Details

Finding 2023-002 – Significant Deficiency Assistance List Number: 97.039 – Hazzard Mitigation Grant Pass-through Agency: California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, FEMA-4344-DR-CA. Compliance Requirement: Reporting. Condition: The District did not provide project closeout materials to the pass-through agency within 90 days of the end of the period of performance so the pass-through agency could prepare the closeout reporting within 120 days of the end of the period of performance. Criteria: The Notice of Funding Opportunity indicates: “In addition, pass-through entities are responsible for closing out their subawards as described in 2 C.F.R. § 200.344; subrecipients are still required to submit closeout materials within 90 calendar days of the period of performance end date. When a subrecipient completes all closeout requirements, pass-through entities must promptly complete all closeout actions for subawards in time for the recipient to submit all necessary documentation and information to FEMA during the closeout of the prime award.” Cause: The District’s staff were waiting for a requested extension for the period of performance from the pass-through agency and assumed the closeout reporting would not be necessary. Effect: The District is not in compliance with the terms and conditions of the federal award. Recommendation: We understand the District provided the information to the pass-through agency necessary to complete the closeout reporting on November 30, 2023. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management’s response and planned corrective action is included in the Corrective Action Plan included at the end of the report.
