Finding Details

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION PASSED THROUGH ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION COVID-19 - AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN - ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOL EMERGENCY RELIEF FUND-AL NUMBER 84.425U PASS-THROUGH NUMBER 0304 AUDIT PERIOD - YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 Special Tests and Provisions Criteria or specific requirement (including statutory, regulatory, or other citation): 29 CFR 5.5 (Wage Rate Requirements) requires all contractors and subcontractors performing construction contracts in excess of $2,000, financed by federal assistance funds, to pay laborers and mechanics employed by the contractor or subcontractor not less than the prevailing wage rates established by the Department of Labor for the locality of the project. Non-federal entities shall include in the applicable construction contracts a provision that the contractor or subcontractor comply with those requirements. Such requirements include the submission of weekly certified payrolls for each week in which any contract work is performed, to the non-federal entities. Condition: The District paid $281,353 for installation of an HVAC system from the Education Stabilization Fund without obtaining a written contract that included the prevailing wage rate provision, and weekly certified payrolls were not submitted to the District. Cause: Lack of internal controls and management oversight. Effect: The District did not comply with Wage Rate Requirements. Context: One contract for facility repairs and improvements was paid from the Education Stabilization Fund and examined. Identification as a repeat finding: No Recommendation: The District should contact the Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) for guidance regarding this matter and implement proper controls over program expenditures. Views of responsible officials: Our district plans to adhere to the Davis-Bacon Act when utilizing federal funding.
