Program: AL 84.365 – English Language Acquisition State Grants – Subrecipient Monitoring Corrective Action Plan: The Agency will strengthen its subrecipient fiscal monitoring processes to ensure compliance with 2 CFR §200.332 and to improve the consistency, documentation, and timeliness of monitoring activities.

This includes consistent labeling of subprograms, transaction samples, supporting documentation, and references to applicable regulatory requirements. The Agency will reinforce its Single Audit tracking and verification procedures to ensure accurate identification and documentation of audit requirements. Key actions include: • Creating a standardized Single Audit tracking log capturing fiscal year end, total federal expenditures, audit requirement status, and follow up actions. • Revising SOPs to require documented verification when a subrecipient exceeds the $1,000,000 threshold but reports that no Single Audit is required. • Implementing system alerts to flag subrecipients approaching or exceeding the audit threshold. • Ensuring timely review and documentation of all submitted Single Audits, including any findings and resolutions. • Providing staff training on Single Audit requirements and updated procedures. These actions will strengthen internal controls, improve documentation, and ensure consistent compliance with federal subrecipient monitoring and audit requirements.

Finding 2025-003 a. Program Name: Head Start and Early Head Start, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds b. Criteria or Specific Requirement: Lack of Supporting Documents: Federal requirements under 2 CFR 200 section 303 state that the Organization must establish and maintain effective internal control over compliance, including controls to ensure payroll costs are charged to federal awards are supported by adequate documentation. Effective internal controls require maintaining sufficient personnel and payroll records, including executed offer letters, and written documentation of wage or position changes with appropriate approvals, to support payroll expenses charged to the program. c. Condition: During payroll testing, we noted instances in which supporting documentation was not retained for payroll activity including missing signed offer letters and / or written approvals of wage or position changes. d. Response: We have implemented a new procedural checklist that accompanies any staff wage or position change. Within this we have clarified that wage changes must be accompanied by a formal letter that is signed by the employee, and that email communications will not suffice. This should ensure that in the future the official signed letters are collected in the format recommended for each such change.

Upon identifying potentially unauthorized and fraudulent fund requests, all program office access to the USIO bank portal was immediately suspended. USIO debit card loads were centralized, and this process remains in place. b. Nine staff potentially involved in those activities were placed on leave during the investigation; five were eventually terminated. Following investigations, the IRC has made significant changes in leadership in structure in Northern California. By the end of June 2026, new Finance, Operations, and Program Delivery leadership will be in place, and the office will be broken down into two smaller offices, each with its own Executive Director. c. Working visits and in-person training on fraud prevention have been and will continue to be delivered to reinforce IRC’s compliance standards in all offices engaged in direct client payments. Additionally, network wide training are being provided focused on on compliance, CFR and fraud prevention for all staff. New policies on pre-paid cards and gift cards have also been issued. d. A Financial Analyst position was created under the RAI Head of Finance to focus on compliance. The analyst performs quarterly sample-based spot checks across all U.S. network offices, randomly selecting transactions for end-to-end review, including USIO payments. An automated tool also flags potential non-compliance issues such as irregular p-card payments and gift card purchases – vulnerabilities that could be exploited in NorCal-like situations. The RAI Head of Finance then compiles quarterly compliance reports for office leadership, highlighting areas for improvement. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2026

Planned Corrective Action: After review, it was determined that the wrong indirect rate was applied to a project. The overcharged amount was $1,461.69. The prime of this project was an industry sponsor and a CRADA was necessary for this work to be completed. It is the belief of the current OSRI management that the error accurred due to confusion that the funds came from an industry sponsor and not a federal agency. To correct this error, management will issue a payment of $1,461.69 to the sponsor. Planned Implementation Date of Corrective Action: Three inquiries were made by CBIZ on 1/5/26 regarding indirects charged by OSRI. On 1/6/26 OSRI management responded clearing up two of the three inquiries showing that the total indirects charged based on direct numbers were correct and that an adjustment had been made during the fiscal year in question to correct prior short falls. After a thorough review of the third inquiry, OSRI management on 1/8/26 reached out to the industry sponsor to inform them of our error and payment reimbursement was initiated. On 1/16/26 the industry sponsor confirmed receipt and cashed check for reimbursement.

During our audit procedures, we identified differences between the amounts reported as current period expenditures, and the amounts recognized in the accounting system. Additionally, during the fiscal year the Municipality received new funds called Service of Excellence to Citizens also related to the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Program. This allocation was granted through the Puerto Rico Fiscal Agency and Financial Advisory Authority. In our Reporting Test, we evaluated six (6) reports and could not validate their submission. Auditor’s Recommendations: We recommend training for the authorized personnel who administer the program, to better understand the reporting requirements and prepare timely reports. The Municipality should establish a monitoring system to ensure compliance with requirements established by the passthrough agency such as: submitting the reports during the required time frame and where the fund expenses will be reported as incurred. This will ensure better control of the program. Corrective Action: The authorized personnel understand the reporting requirements. We are in the process of training additional personnel to have more resources to comply with all reporting requirements. The Finance Department is working with external consultants to address this situation, and be able to comply with all reports as required.

Name of Contact Person: Karen Gillis Corrective Action Plan: This finding remains an unusual situation for BSFA. BSFA has not previously been in a situation where BSFA funded a contractor in the absence of the federal government’s inability to enter into a contractual agreement (due to the Trump Administrations strict limitations on entering into contractual agreements). The inability to demonstrate that costs were incurred lies with the contractor wherein we were unable to obtain from them their spending down the funds provided as originally agreed upon. We do not anticipate another instance such as this though we will implement stronger controls over contract payments in the future so expenditures are supported by documentation showing costs were incurred within the approved period of performance. Proposed Completion Date: February 28, 2026
