Finding 2022-001 Federal Agency Name: Department of Homeland Security, State of Idaho Office of Emergency Management Program Name: Disaster Grants ? Public Assistance CFDA # 97.036 Finding Summary: Administrative labor costs were claimed for reimbursement that fell outside the period of performance of the federal award in two instances. In addition, one instance in which the Cooperative submitted a material cost for reimbursement that was not used in the project. Responsible Individuals: Reed Christensen Corrective Action Plan: Management revised its procedures to ensure a review of labor hours submitted in the future for FEMA-reimbursed projects in order to ensure the labor hours submitted fall more precisely within the Federally specified timeframe of the disaster declaration. As it concerns material cost reimbursements, in the future the work order will be reviewed and reconciled to the ?pick list? quantities. This has also been added to our FEMA-related work procedure.

Finding Number: 2022-001 Planned Corrective Action: Mid-East's Adult Education Financial Coordinator retired at the end of Fiscal Year 2021. As any new position, there was a learning curve and the new Financial Aid Coordinator received limited training with the former Coordinator. Consultants were hired to help, but this specific reconciliation process was not discussed. There has been a recent change in the Adult Education Director's position, and it is the intention of the new Director to eventually cross-train positions. This will assist in the future for a smoother transition between employees leaving and new employees hired. Since the finding, the Adult Education Financial Coordinator has established a checklist of items that need to be completed for each drawdown. This checklist will be placed in each drawdown folder. The Monthly Drawdown Reconciliation plan will include beginning with verifying with Common Origination and Disbursement Center (COD) School Summery report prior to the disbursement. Once the disbursement information is entered into Ed-Express and transferred to COD for the month review of the School Summary report, it will be reviewed to verify that the "Cash>Net Accepted & Posted Disbursements" matches the Achademix Drawdown Batch. Then, again when the disbursement funds are disbursed, a review of the COD School Summary report will occur. At any time, if a variance occurs, it will be addressed immediately. This plan of action went into place with the February 17, 2023 disbursement process. All documentation of any reconciliations will be kept in each drawdown file. The variance of the $866.00 occurred during the final drawdown of Fiscal Year 2022. As the reconciliation process was not in place, the variance was not discovered. As a new Fisca Year started, it was a new batch of funds, and the $866 variance was not discovered until the audit process. The variance was researched and corrected. The correction was located and corrected in Ed Express and had no monetary effect. The School Summary report from COD Cash>Net Accepted & Posted Disbursements" is at zero for 2021-2022, and documentation has been kept on that. The newly implemented checklist and process for reconciliation will prevent variances from happening in the future. Anticipated Completion Date: Currently in place and will continue. Responsible Contact Person: Thasia Shilling, Adult Education Financial Aid Coordinator

Finding: 2022-002 Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: COVID-19 HRSA Claims Reimbursement for the Uninsured Program and the COVID-19 Coverage Assistance Fund Federal Financial Assistance Listing #: #93.461 Finding Summary: Audit testing identified one instance in which health services provided to a patient were reimbursed under the federal program, and the health services provided did not meet the terms and conditions of the federal program. Through the coding process, an incorrect diagnosis code was included in the system, and therefore, the patient?s health services flowed into Monument Health?s Uninsured Program workflow which resulted in $3,563 of health services being reimbursed under the federal program. As part of the audit, a sample of 60 patients were selected for testing, accounting for $1,659,497 of $4,344,728 of monies received from the federal agency. Responsible Individuals: Austin Willuweit, Vice President of Finance Jen Schmaltz, Corporate Controller Corrective Action Plan: Monument Health will develop a review process to identify claims that could have a diagnosis coding issue. A return of any excess reimbursement will be completed. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023

In addition, adjustments were made to decrease the amount reported for the COVID-19 HRSA Claims Reimbursement for the Uninsured Program and the COVID-19 Coverage Assistance Fund (Uninsured Program) to total receipt of monies received from the federal agency during the year ended June 30, 2022. Finding 2022-001 relates solely to which period expenditures are included in the schedule of expenditures of federal awards as compared to periods deposited from the Uninsured Program and to periods in which they are included in Period 2 and Period 3 reports.

2022-2 Excess Residual Receipts Condition: The Project did not prepare a HUD 9250 to remit excess residual receipts nor did it mail a check or transmit a wire of those funds. Criteria: According to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, owners subject to a Section 202 or 811 Project Rental Assistance Contract (PRAC) are required to remit any excess balance in a Residual Receipts account, greater than $250 per unit, to HUD?s Accounting Center upon termination or renewal of the PRAC contract. Effect: Residual receipts balance is $30,133 as of December 31, 2022. The allowable balance is $7,250 ($250 X 29 units), resulting in excess residual receipts of $22,883. Recommendation: I recommend the Property prepare the HUD 9250 requesting to remit excess funds to HUD. Management Response: The property needs to money for improvements at the property. There will be an increase in the costs of future expenses due to inflations. It is not prudent for management to return funds for a property of this age. They do have Replacement Reserve funds but those funds may not be adequate enough to cover what will be needed. We have witnessed substantial increases in Insurance. Additionally, in order to maintain staff we would be looking at increases in Health Insurance, Compensation, and Fringe Benefits. Surplus cash is based on historical costs, it does not take into consideration what may happen in the future.

Criteria: Surplus cash is required to be deposited into the residual receipts account at the end of each fiscal year in which it was calculated. Cause: The cause is undeterminable.

Recommendation: I recommend management make all required deposits of surplus cash to the residual receipts account in compliance with HUD rules and regulations. Management Response: It is our understanding that the Board of Directors will be requesting a meeting with HUD to discuss the dissolution of this item. Upon meeting with HUD it will be discharged.

2022-001 Corrective Action Plan-Food Service Fund Balance This finding is caused by the District?s Food Service Fund?s fund balance exceeding the USDA?s threshold of 3 months average expenditures. The District is fully aware of this situation and has a spend down plan in place to help alleviate the excess fund balance down to a reasonable level and anticipates the completion date for the corrective action plan to be before the end of the 2022-23 fiscal year. The persons responsible for the corrective action are Maryanne Charette, the food service director and Kim Bidwell, the business manager. The anticipated completion date of the corrective action plan is before the end of the 2023 fiscal year. The plan for monitoring adherence is the food service director and business manager will work together to assess where the fund balance is after all of the projects from the spend down plan are completed.

The Sonoma County Community Development Commission submits the following corrective action plan in response to Finding 2022-002 which states, ?Emergency Solutions Grant Program.? This finding pertains to (24 CFR Section 576.203) which states, ?the recipient must pay each subrecipient for allowable costs within 30 days after receiving the subrecipient?s complete payment request.? The Ending Homelessness Team received substantial funding to assist with the Coronavirus Pandemic. Aside from the $7M received from the Federal Government, the Homelessness Team received an additional $10M in funding for State Emergency Solutions Grant (Coronavirus) and the State?s HHAP (Homeless Housing Assistance Prevention) Program, approximately four times the amount the team processed in prior years. Despite the significant increase in funding and program needs across the County during the pandemic, the Homelessness Team?s staffing levels didn?t change. The volume of transactions increased substantially and took additional time to process check request received. In addition, all checks are processed through the County of Sonoma?s accounting functions where they are reviewed, approved, and paid. The County?s Claims Department serves the entire County. During the height of the pandemic, all departments, including the Commission, experienced significant delays in processing times at the County level. Now that the pandemic is nearing an end, the Commission expects the Homelessness Team to return to their regular funding levels which will significantly reduce processing turn times. Sincerely, Dave Kiff Interim Executive Director Sonoma County Community Development Commission

FINDING 2022-001 Information on the federal program: Subject: Child Nutrition Cluster ? Internal Controls Federal Agency: Department of Agriculture Federal Program: School Breakfast Program, National School Lunch Program Assistance Listing Numbers: 10.553, 10.555 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Reporting Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the School Corporation in order to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the reporting compliance requirement. Context: We noted that for one claim in a sample of four, the school lunch meal count was overclaimed for the month. We noted that in October 2020 the School Corporation had overclaimed lunches by 173 meals. We noted that the sponsor claim reimbursement form had been reviewed, however, the lack of an effective review allowed the error to go unnoticed. Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Going forward, we will have multiple people verifying the data before submission to reimbursement for claims to make sure all meals submitted meet the criteria and eligibility of the Child Nutrition Cluster. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: The Food Service Director and the Corporation Treasurer are the responsible parties for this corrective action. This has already been implemented.
