Noncompliance and Material Weakness 2 CFR ? 400.1 gives regulatory effect for the U. S. Department of Agriculture to the Office of Management and Budget guidance in subparts A through F of 2 CFR part 200, as supplemented by this part, as USDA policies and procedures for uniform administrative requirements, cost principles, and audit requirement for Federal awards. 2 CFR ? 200.303 requires that non-Federal entities receiving Federal awards (i.e., auditee management) establish and maintain effective internal control designed to reasonably ensure compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. 2 CFR ? 200.514(c) requires auditors to obtain an understanding of the non-Federal entity?s internal control over Federal programs sufficient to plan the audit to support a low assessed level of control risk of noncompliance for major programs, and, unless internal control is likely to be ineffective in preventing or detecting noncompliance, plan the testing of internal control over compliance for major programs to support a low assessed level of control risk for the assertions relevant to the compliance requirements for each major program and perform testing of internal control as planned. 7 CFR ? 210.7(c) states, in part, to be entitled to reimbursement under this part, each school food authority shall ensure that the Claims for Reimbursement . . . accurately reflects the number of lunches and meal supplements served to eligible children, and the school food authority shall, at a minimum: (iii) Base Claims for Reimbursement on lunch counts, taken daily at the point of service, which correctly identify the number of free, reduced price and paid lunches served to eligible children; (iv) Correctly record, consolidate and report those lunch and supplement counts on the Claim for Reimbursement; and (v) Ensure that Claims for Reimbursement do not request payment for any excess lunches produced, as prohibited in ? 210.10(a)(2), or non-Program lunches (i.e., a la carte or adult lunches) or for more than one meal supplement per child per day. 7 CFR ? 210.8(c) states the Claim for Reimbursement shall include data in sufficient detail to justify the reimbursement claimed and to enable the State agency to provide the Report of School Program Operations required under ?210.5(d) of this part. Such data shall include, at a minimum, the number of free, reduced price and paid lunches and meal supplements served to eligible children. The claim shall be signed by a school food authority official. Six out of twenty (30%) site claim forms submitted by the District to the Ohio Department of Education were inaccurate, since the District claimed more meals served than what was actually distributed. These errors occurred due to a weakness in internal controls, which failed to ensure site claim forms for reimbursable meals served at each building and submitted by the District to the Ohio Department of Education were entered correctly. Failure to properly report the number of eligible meals resulted in the District receiving unsubstantiated reimbursements totaling $4,823. The District should implement policies and procedures to help ensure that monthly site claim forms for all District buildings are reviewed and submitted to reflect actual counts for reimbursable meals served.
