Audit Finding 2024-059 Finding: US Department of the Treasury (Treasury) regulations at 31 CFR Part 205 implement the Cash Management Improvement Act of 1990 (CMIA), as amended (Pub. L. No. 101-453; 31 USC 6501 et seq.). Subpart A of those regulations requires state recipients to enter into Treasury-State Agreements that prescribe specific methods of drawing down federal funds (funding techniques) for federal programs listed in the Assistance Listing (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) that meet the funding threshold for a major federal assistance program under the CMIA. The major federal assistance program threshold for the State of Nevada’s 2024 Treasury-State Agreement was $60,000,000 in accordance with 31 CFR Part 205.5, which was determined based on the State’s Single Audit for the year ended June 30, 2021. Major federal assistance programs were not included in the State of Nevada’s Treasury- State Agreement as required. The State of Nevada Controller’s Office (SCO) did not have adequate internal controls to ensure major federal assistance programs were completely identified. Two assistance listing programs were not subject to the specific methods of drawing down federal funds that would have been negotiated within the Treasury-State Agreement. No sampling was used. We reviewed the expenditures by assistance listing on the State of Nevada’s Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards for the year ended June 30, 2021. We noted Special Education Grants to States, 84.027, and the Child Care and Development Block Grant, 93.575, both exceeded $60,000,000 and were not included. In addition, there was no documentation available to support whether these programs met any allowable exclusions or exemptions. Recommendation: We recommend SCO enhance internal controls to ensure major federal assistance programs are completely identified. Agency Response Does the Agency Agree with Finding: Yes Additional Comments: None Corrective Action Taken or to be Taken Action: The State Controller’s Office (SCO) will enhance internal controls to ensure major federal assistance programs are completely identified.
