This includes ensuring that every subaward is (1) clearly identified to the subrecipient as a subaward; (2) includes the necessary information at the time of the subaward for subrecipient reporting on federal awards (2 CFR 200.332) and (3) includes requirement to follow 2 CFR 200.501 if expenditure thresholds are met. This also includes verifying that every subrecipient is audited as required by 2 CFR Subpart F if the subrecipient’s Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Condition During our testing of subrecipient monitoring, we noted all 18 of the subrecipient agreements tested did not include language clearly identifying the federal program from which the subaward originated, or the applicable requirements from 2 CFR 300.332 and Subpart F. We also noted for all 18 subrecipients tested that the Municipality did not verify whether subrecipients were audited in accordance with 2 CFR 200.501 where applicable. Cause The issuance of subrecipient agreements for these grants related to new funding streams in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Significant amounts of funding were provided in a short period of time, and systems to distribute these monies were newly created and implemented. The standard award agreements were not reviewed in advance to ensure adherence to federal requirements. Staff were not fully trained on the informational requirements and monitoring responsibilities related to audit requirements. Effect or Potential Effect Subrecipients may be unaware and not in compliance with the requirements of 2 CFR Part 200. Questioned Costs Not applicable. Context For ALN 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, we tested a sample of 10 subawards totaling to $28,079,600 from a population of 37 totaling to $37,052,621. For ALN 21.023 - Emergency Rental Assistance Program, we tested all 3 subawards within the population totaling to $10,900,177. For ALN 93.323 – COVID-19-Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases (ELC), we tested all 5 subawards within the population totaling to $5,086,923. As noted in the condition, we identified exceptions for 18 subrecipient agreements tested. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-002 in the prior audit. Recommendation Management should establish policies to ensure subawards contain required federal award information. In addition, procedures should be established to monitor subrecipient compliance with audit requirements of 2 CFR 200.501. Views of Responsible Officials Management concurs with the finding and will adhere to the corrective action plan included in this report. Management plans to revise policies and procedures related to subrecipient monitoring.

Finding 2022-009 Subrecipient Monitoring – Material Noncompliance and Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Compliance Agency/Pass-through Grantor Department of the Treasury, Department of Health and Human Services passed through the State of Alaska Department of Health and Social Services ALN and Program Name 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds – COVID 19 21.023 – Emergency Rental Assistance Program – COVID 19 93.323 – COVID-19-Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases (ELC) Award # 21.027 – 1505-0271 21.023 – ERA-2101060120 (ERA 1); ERA2-0469 (ERA 2) 93.323 – C0621-570-BB Award Year 21.027 – 2022 21.023 - 2022 93.323 – 3/15/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria or Specific Requirement 2 CFR 200.332 requires pass-through entities to ensure that subrecipients comply with the terms and conditions of 2 CFR 200.501 related to audit requirements. This includes ensuring that every subaward is (1) clearly identified to the subrecipient as a subaward; (2) includes the necessary information at the time of the subaward for subrecipient reporting on federal awards (2 CFR 200.332) and (3) includes requirement to follow 2 CFR 200.501 if expenditure thresholds are met. This also includes verifying that every subrecipient is audited as required by 2 CFR Subpart F if the subrecipient’s Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Condition During our testing of subrecipient monitoring, we noted all 18 of the subrecipient agreements tested did not include language clearly identifying the federal program from which the subaward originated, or the applicable requirements from 2 CFR 300.332 and Subpart F. We also noted for all 18 subrecipients tested that the Municipality did not verify whether subrecipients were audited in accordance with 2 CFR 200.501 where applicable. Cause The issuance of subrecipient agreements for these grants related to new funding streams in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Significant amounts of funding were provided in a short period of time, and systems to distribute these monies were newly created and implemented. The standard award agreements were not reviewed in advance to ensure adherence to federal requirements. Staff were not fully trained on the informational requirements and monitoring responsibilities related to audit requirements. Effect or Potential Effect Subrecipients may be unaware and not in compliance with the requirements of 2 CFR Part 200. Questioned Costs Not applicable. Context For ALN 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, we tested a sample of 10 subawards totaling to $28,079,600 from a population of 37 totaling to $37,052,621. For ALN 21.023 - Emergency Rental Assistance Program, we tested all 3 subawards within the population totaling to $10,900,177. For ALN 93.323 – COVID-19-Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases (ELC), we tested all 5 subawards within the population totaling to $5,086,923. As noted in the condition, we identified exceptions for 18 subrecipient agreements tested. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-002 in the prior audit. Recommendation Management should establish policies to ensure subawards contain required federal award information. In addition, procedures should be established to monitor subrecipient compliance with audit requirements of 2 CFR 200.501. Views of Responsible Officials Management concurs with the finding and will adhere to the corrective action plan included in this report. Management plans to revise policies and procedures related to subrecipient monitoring.

Non-federal entities must verify that parties to covered transactions are not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. Condition Testing of 16 procurements and 15 sub-awards identified 27 exceptions where evidence was not retained to support the required verification of whether a contractor or subrecipient was a suspended or debarred party. Cause Anchorage’s policies over procurement and issuance of sub-awards were not designed appropriately to retain evidence of suspension and debarment review for all contracts or sub-awards funded with federal awards. Effect or Potential Effect Federal funds could be disbursed to suspended or debarred entities. Questioned costs None Context For the Highway Planning and Construction Cluster, we tested a sample of 6 procurements totaling to $2,191,006 from a population of 11 totaling to $2,428,669, and identified 3 exceptions equal to $1,048,720. For the Federal Transit Cluster, we tested a sample of 5 procurements totaling to $9,489,488 from a population of 35 procurements, and identified 4 exceptions equal to $8,489,488. For the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, we tested a sample of 3 procurements totaling to $5,184,400 from a population of 5 procurements, as well as a sample of 10 sub-awards totaling to $28,079,600 from a population of 37 totaling to $37,052,621, and identified 13 exceptions equal to $33,264,000. For Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases, we tested all 2 procurements totaling to $887,745 and 5 sub awards totaling to $5,086,923 within the respective populations, and identified 7 exceptions. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-003 in the prior audit. Recommendation A policy should be established and enforced to ensure that evidence of the SAM Exclusions search is retained. Procurement staff should conduct a selfreview of procurement files for contracts awarded in prior years if it is known that the contract will be funded with a federal award to ensure the SAM Exclusions search is performed prior to the expenditure of those funds and included in the procurement file.

Non-federal entities must verify that parties to covered transactions are not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. Condition Testing of 16 procurements and 15 sub-awards identified 27 exceptions where evidence was not retained to support the required verification of whether a contractor or subrecipient was a suspended or debarred party. Cause Anchorage’s policies over procurement and issuance of sub-awards were not designed appropriately to retain evidence of suspension and debarment review for all contracts or sub-awards funded with federal awards. Effect or Potential Effect Federal funds could be disbursed to suspended or debarred entities. Questioned costs None Context For the Highway Planning and Construction Cluster, we tested a sample of 6 procurements totaling to $2,191,006 from a population of 11 totaling to $2,428,669, and identified 3 exceptions equal to $1,048,720. For the Federal Transit Cluster, we tested a sample of 5 procurements totaling to $9,489,488 from a population of 35 procurements, and identified 4 exceptions equal to $8,489,488. For the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, we tested a sample of 3 procurements totaling to $5,184,400 from a population of 5 procurements, as well as a sample of 10 sub-awards totaling to $28,079,600 from a population of 37 totaling to $37,052,621, and identified 13 exceptions equal to $33,264,000. For Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases, we tested all 2 procurements totaling to $887,745 and 5 sub awards totaling to $5,086,923 within the respective populations, and identified 7 exceptions. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-003 in the prior audit. Recommendation A policy should be established and enforced to ensure that evidence of the SAM Exclusions search is retained. Procurement staff should conduct a selfreview of procurement files for contracts awarded in prior years if it is known that the contract will be funded with a federal award to ensure the SAM Exclusions search is performed prior to the expenditure of those funds and included in the procurement file.

Finding 2022-009 Subrecipient Monitoring – Material Noncompliance and Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Compliance Agency/Pass-through Grantor Department of the Treasury, Department of Health and Human Services passed through the State of Alaska Department of Health and Social Services ALN and Program Name 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds – COVID 19 21.023 – Emergency Rental Assistance Program – COVID 19 93.323 – COVID-19-Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases (ELC) Award # 21.027 – 1505-0271 21.023 – ERA-2101060120 (ERA 1); ERA2-0469 (ERA 2) 93.323 – C0621-570-BB Award Year 21.027 – 2022 21.023 - 2022 93.323 – 3/15/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria or Specific Requirement 2 CFR 200.332 requires pass-through entities to ensure that subrecipients comply with the terms and conditions of 2 CFR 200.501 related to audit requirements. This includes ensuring that every subaward is (1) clearly identified to the subrecipient as a subaward; (2) includes the necessary information at the time of the subaward for subrecipient reporting on federal awards (2 CFR 200.332) and (3) includes requirement to follow 2 CFR 200.501 if expenditure thresholds are met. This also includes verifying that every subrecipient is audited as required by 2 CFR Subpart F if the subrecipient’s Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Condition During our testing of subrecipient monitoring, we noted all 18 of the subrecipient agreements tested did not include language clearly identifying the federal program from which the subaward originated, or the applicable requirements from 2 CFR 300.332 and Subpart F. We also noted for all 18 subrecipients tested that the Municipality did not verify whether subrecipients were audited in accordance with 2 CFR 200.501 where applicable. Cause The issuance of subrecipient agreements for these grants related to new funding streams in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Significant amounts of funding were provided in a short period of time, and systems to distribute these monies were newly created and implemented. The standard award agreements were not reviewed in advance to ensure adherence to federal requirements. Staff were not fully trained on the informational requirements and monitoring responsibilities related to audit requirements. Effect or Potential Effect Subrecipients may be unaware and not in compliance with the requirements of 2 CFR Part 200. Questioned Costs Not applicable. Context For ALN 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, we tested a sample of 10 subawards totaling to $28,079,600 from a population of 37 totaling to $37,052,621. For ALN 21.023 - Emergency Rental Assistance Program, we tested all 3 subawards within the population totaling to $10,900,177. For ALN 93.323 – COVID-19-Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases (ELC), we tested all 5 subawards within the population totaling to $5,086,923. As noted in the condition, we identified exceptions for 18 subrecipient agreements tested. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-002 in the prior audit. Recommendation Management should establish policies to ensure subawards contain required federal award information. In addition, procedures should be established to monitor subrecipient compliance with audit requirements of 2 CFR 200.501. Views of Responsible Officials Management concurs with the finding and will adhere to the corrective action plan included in this report. Management plans to revise policies and procedures related to subrecipient monitoring.

Non-federal entities must verify that parties to covered transactions are not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. Condition Testing of 16 procurements and 15 sub-awards identified 27 exceptions where evidence was not retained to support the required verification of whether a contractor or subrecipient was a suspended or debarred party. Cause Anchorage’s policies over procurement and issuance of sub-awards were not designed appropriately to retain evidence of suspension and debarment review for all contracts or sub-awards funded with federal awards. Effect or Potential Effect Federal funds could be disbursed to suspended or debarred entities. Questioned costs None Context For the Highway Planning and Construction Cluster, we tested a sample of 6 procurements totaling to $2,191,006 from a population of 11 totaling to $2,428,669, and identified 3 exceptions equal to $1,048,720. For the Federal Transit Cluster, we tested a sample of 5 procurements totaling to $9,489,488 from a population of 35 procurements, and identified 4 exceptions equal to $8,489,488.

For Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases, we tested all 2 procurements totaling to $887,745 and 5 sub awards totaling to $5,086,923 within the respective populations, and identified 7 exceptions. All samples tested were selected using nonstatistical sampling methods and were not statistically valid samples. Identification as a Repeat Finding Yes. This finding was reported as Finding 2021-003 in the prior audit. Recommendation A policy should be established and enforced to ensure that evidence of the SAM Exclusions search is retained. Procurement staff should conduct a selfreview of procurement files for contracts awarded in prior years if it is known that the contract will be funded with a federal award to ensure the SAM Exclusions search is performed prior to the expenditure of those funds and included in the procurement file.

Non-federal entities must verify that parties to covered transactions are not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. Condition Testing of 16 procurements and 15 sub-awards identified 27 exceptions where evidence was not retained to support the required verification of whether a contractor or subrecipient was a suspended or debarred party. Cause Anchorage’s policies over procurement and issuance of sub-awards were not designed appropriately to retain evidence of suspension and debarment review for all contracts or sub-awards funded with federal awards. Effect or Potential Effect Federal funds could be disbursed to suspended or debarred entities. Questioned costs None Context For the Highway Planning and Construction Cluster, we tested a sample of 6 procurements totaling to $2,191,006 from a population of 11 totaling to $2,428,669, and identified 3 exceptions equal to $1,048,720.
