Finding Details

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ALN #: 84.425F Condition: HEERF reporting was not always done accurately or timely. During the audit, it was noted that the College did not continue to update their website with the HEERF reporting requirements as listed in their grant agreements. The first and second quarterly reports for institutional funds (quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021) was not completed for HEERF II. Criteria: 2 CFR 200.329, 86 FR 26213 The College was required to post the Institutional Quarterly Report to their website within 10 days of the end of the quarter in which the funds were spent. Questioned Costs: None Cause: Turnover in staffing. There were multiple rounds of HEERF funding released, each with different requirements, which led to a gap in understanding of the requirements of the HEERF reporting. Effect: The College was not in compliance with the reporting requirements of HEERF. Identification as repeat finding, if applicable: Not applicable. Recommendation: We recommend that the College complete the HEERF quarterly reporting until the HEERF funding is spent to ensure compliance is maintained. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: See Corrective Action Plan.
