Management's Perspective Management acknowledges the audit finding related to exceeding budgeted amounts for specific allowable activities. We understand the importance of adhering strictly to approved budgets and appreciate the auditor's insights for improving our internal controls. The discrepancy noted in the draw requests and employee salary reimbursement rate was unintentional and stemmed from insufficient monitoring of budget allocations and across specific cost categories. Overall for the grant we were $671,675.96 favorable to the total budget, but are committed to rectifying this issue promptly to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements by line item. Corrective Action Plan 1. Root Cause Analysis: The primary cause of this issue was the absence of a robust process for comparing expenditures to individual cost categories in the approved budget. 2. Policy and Procedure Enhancements: o Budget Monitoring: A formal procedure will be implemented to review the budget allocations for each cost category prior to submitting any draw requests. This will include a reconciliation process to verify expenditures align with approved amounts. o Approval Process: Draw requests will now require a secondary review by individual cost categories by the Chief Financial Officer to ensure compliance with budgeted amounts. 3. Employee Reimbursement Accuracy: o We will update the reimbursement calculation process to ensure all employee salaries are reimbursed at the approved rates. This will involve cross-checking position with the budget during each draw request. 4. Training: o Staff involved in grant management and budget monitoring will be provided training on allowable activities, cost category monitoring, and budget compliance by January 15, 2025. 5. Oversight and Accountability: o A quarterly internal audit will be conducted to review draw requests and salary reimbursement calculations to identify any discrepancies early. 6. Immediate Actions Taken: o The overdrawn amounts ($27,009) and salary discrepancy ($4,371) have been identified. Management is working to rectify these errors and will address any necessary repayments or budget amendments with the grantor.Timeline for Implementation All corrective actions will be fully implemented by 1/31/2025. Progress will be reported to the Board of Directors as needed. Contact Information For further questions or additional clarification, please contact: Robbie Marchant Chief Financial Officer 540-888-3456 marchant@trschool.org Management remains committed to maintaining compliance with grant requirements and implementing procedures to prevent recurrence of this issue.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN San Diego Biomedical Research Institute respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2024. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Leaf & Cole, LLP 2810 Camino Del Rio South, Suite 200 San Diego, California 92108 Audit period: June 30, 2024 The findings from the June 30, 2024 comments are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the Schedule of Findings and Questions Cost (“Schedule”). Section II of the Schedule does not include findings and is not addressed. Section III - Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs: Finding 2024-001: Cash Management - Research and Development Cluster Condition Funds were drawn down by the Institute in excess of the three-day period recommended by its funding agency and did not minimize the time elapsing between the transfers of funds from the grantor to the issue of payment by the recipient during the year ended June 30, 2024. Criteria Cash management under 2 CFR 215.22 states that payment methods shall minimize the time elapsing between the transfers of funds from the grantor to the issue of payment by the recipient Cause The Institute’s preparation and review procedures over the draw down of funds were insufficient to minimize the time elapsing between the transfers of funds from the grantor to the issue of payments by the Institute. Effect The Institute was not in compliance with the cash management compliance requirements stated in 2 CFR 215.22 during the year and the Institute had an overdrawn balance of $481,959 at June 30, 2024. Recommendation The Institute should improve its procedures over advances of federal funds. Management Response Establish a reserve amount to avoid drawing down all available funds, ensuring that there is always sufficient cash flow to meet operational needs. This reserve is intended to cover unexpected expenses, emergencies, or fluctuations in cash flow. Actions Taken The institute has subsequently obtained a $900,000 loan, to support its daily cash flow needs, and to eliminate the conditions leading to the FY’24 audit findings.

Finding #2024-002 Wage Allocations (Program Affected - Career and Technical Education - Basic Grants to States (Assistance Listing No. 84.048) and Youth Apprenticeship (State Program ID No. 445.107) Condition: Wages and benefits charged to the Career and Technical Education - Basic Grants to States and Youth Apprenticeship were based on projected staff time and not the actual activity of each employee from the Agency's time management system. Criteria: When wages and benefits are allocated to multiple programs, the costs claimed for reimbursement should be based on the actual time spent. Supporting documentation must be maintained to support how each employee is allocated. When making grant claims, payroll costs coded to the grant project in the general ledger should be compared to the time management system. Cause: The Agency projected staff time at the beginning of the year. Actual hours worked by employees in the time management system did not match the projected staff time recorded to the grants in the general ledger. These grants were not adjusted to match actual staff time. Effect: The costs charged to the grant may not reflect the actual time and effort spent by the employees. Recommendation: We recommend the projected staff time charged to projects be adjusted to actual costs at least annually when there are significant differences between projected and actual time. Response: The Agency reviews timesheets in Harvest whenever grant claims are made to ensure proper work has been completed and proper work time is claimed under grants. Each employee is provided with their payroll allocations as per grant funding amounts. The reports are submitted weekly by each employee and reviewed by management weekly. To ensure that the deliverables are being met, and time is being worked accordingly, grant claims are made on actual costs only. Contact Person: Courtney Rounds Anticipated Completion: 12/1/2024

During fiscal year 2024, the College had two grant awards with Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS). The first grant award was from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2023. The second grant award was from the date of final contract signature which was September 29, 2023 through September 21, 2028. Due to the gap period between contracts, the September 2023 NRCS general ledger was cleared of any expenses. A grant program staff member attended a training in August 2023 and submitted for travel reimbursement in October 2023. Grant program staff members attended a conference in September 2023 and the registration fees were paid in October 2023. The travel reimbursement, conference registration fees and corresponding indirect costs were included in the October 2023 financial report submitted to NRCS for reimbursement. Once the error was discovered, the expenses were removed from the NRCS general ledger and charged to an ·appro pri at e account. An adjustment was made to reduce the expenses on the October 2024 financial report submitted to NRCS. The college recognizes the importance of proper reporting for financial reports and reimbursement requests and that those reports should only include costs that are incurred during the grant period. The grant finance team will work with grant program staff to implement a schedule that will help to ensure that goods, services and travel are completed during the grant term, that invoices are submitted in a timely manner and prior to grant end, and when possible, payment will be made for said items prior to the end of the grant term. The grant finance team will review expenses incurred during the grant term and immediately following the grant term to confirm expenses are being reported in the correct period for financial reporting and reimbursement requests.

Corrective Action Plan: Anticipated Completion Date January 15, 2025 Prior to Mono County Office of Education (MCOE) taking over this program in 2022-23, another agency was responsible for the original eligibility determinations and special tests and provisions. MCOE investigated further, and it was noted that the staff at the time were not following the procedures and forms that were in place. Items were either not completed or filled out correctly in many instances. When the audit finding was identified in the 2022-23 audit, MCOE took action to immediately implement new procedures to address the items noted. Although a few items were noted during the 2023-24 audit, MCOE has made significant efforts in putting procedures in place, and will continue efforts to ensure all required documentation is complete. MCOE has developed a corrective action plan as follows to adhere to strong internal control in meeting the program’s requirements: • MCOE will ensure that existing and new staff are trained to adhere to the policies and procedures for the program. • MCOE will be conducting annual reviews of all service providers and children served to ensure MCOE is maintaining the required documents on file. • MCOE has developed a double-check procedure to ensure that staff is keeping the required documentation on file for both providers and children served moving forward.
