Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal award activity of the County under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 2024. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of 2 CFR Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the County, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position, or cash flows of the County.
Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting as described in Note 1 of the County’s financial statements. Such expenditures are recognized consistent with the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance for all awards with the exception of Assistance Listing 21.027, which follows criteria determined by the Department of Treasury for allowability of costs. Under these principles, certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement.
St. Charles County has not elected to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed in the Uniform Guidance, Section 414.

Finding Details

During the testing of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) reporting, it was noted that the reports weren’t filed within the month following when the subawards were made. The County has one subrecipient requiring FFATA reporting.
Subrecipient monitoring was direct and material to the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds program. The County passed funding to sixteen subrecipients and five subrecipients were selected for testing. Based upon the subrecipients selected for testing, subrecipient agreements were executed but did not include all required information under CFR § 200.332. In addition, the County does not have a formal process to monitor expenditures incurred by subrecipients. Reimbursement requests are submitted by subrecipients but supporting documentation was not consistently provided by subrecipient to enable the County to effectively monitor subrecipient expenditures.
Procurement was direct and material to the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. Suspension and debarment assessments were performed but after the contract was awarded. As a result, the suspension and debarment assessments were performed late.
