Grant monies received and disbursed by the Port are for specific purposes and are subject to review by the grantor agencies. Such audits may result in requests for reimbursement due to disallowed expenditures. Based upon prior experience, the Port does not believe that such disallowances, if any, would have a material effect on the financial position of the Port. As of June 15, 2023 management is not aware of any material questioned or disallowed costs as a result of grant audits in process or completed; however, the possible disallowance by a governmental agency of any item charged to a program or project cannot be determined at this time.
