Finding Details

Criteria or Specific Requirement: The quarterly reporting requirements were stated in the "2 CFR 200.328 and 31 CFR section 35.1(c) Reporting and requests for other information" section of the Federal Register dated January 27, 2022. The US Department of Treasury requries that quarterly reports be submitted to the department if a county has a populaton below 250,000 residents and are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding. The quarterly reports must be completed and submitted within the next month after the quarterly period ended. Condition: The County was not able to submit a SLFRF quarterly report within the next month after the quarterly period ended. Context: The County had difficulty accessing the SLFRF website due to the County receiving error messages that they have "insufficient access rights on cross-reference id", so it delayed the submission of some of the quarterly reports. Questioned Costs: $0 Effect: The County was not in compliance with SLFRF reporting requirements. Cause: The County received error messages that says they have "insufficent access rights on cross-reference id" and they could not log-in to the SLFRF portal. Repeat: Yes - Years as Repeat Finding: Two 2024-002; 2023-002 Auditor's Recommendation: The County has been able to log-in to the SLFRF portal by the end of the fiscal year, so we recommend that the County submit the quarterly reports within the next month after the quarterly period ended. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Management acknowledges the finding and has prepared a corrective action plan. The County will submit the quarterly reports within the next month after the quarterly period ended.
