Finding 2023-007 – Payroll and Cash Management Deficiencies Responsible official: Executive Director and Accountants Corrective action planned: Management acknowledges that the same payroll and cash management deficiencies identified in the 2023 audit also occurred during 2024 and part of 2025. Specifically, when federal cash balances were insufficient, payroll was paid temporarily from private funds, followed by the issuance of federal checks to employees for reimbursement purposes. During the 2025 audit, management recognized this as a recurring and systemic deficiency. A formal Cash Management and Interfund Transfer Policy is now being drafted and will be approved by the Board by February 2026. This policy will require: 1. Payroll to be processed directly from the federal account when possible. 2. Temporary transfers from private funds to be documented as interfund advances, with full repayment recorded upon reimbursement. 3. Prohibition of issuing duplicate payroll checks to employees. 4. Reconciliation of all interfund transfers within ten (10) business days after reimbursement. The organization will also implement a dual-authorization process for interfund transactions and establish a monthly reconciliation checklist to be completed by accounting staff and reviewed by the Executive Director. Monitoring: Monthly payroll and cash reconciliations will be reviewed by the Executive Director, and External Accountant. Evidence of reconciliations and approvals will be retained for audit purposes. Target completion date: March 31, 2026 Status: New finding – corrective actions in process.

Finding 2023-008: This is for Pohnpei Community Health Centers. 1) For 2 of 2 items tested. We noted that total expenditures reported in documentary support submitted by the State for drawdown requests do not match the initial amounts requested, approved, and received by the awarding agency. We are aware that the expenditure reports furnished to us are not the originals that would have accompanied the State’s initial request for reimbursement from the awarding agency. It does not appear that the original supporting expenditure reports were retained. 2) The State does not appear to have a policy or adopted standard methodology for monitoring 93.224 programmatic cash needs and scheduling regular drawdowns. Root Cause Analysis 1) The State’s documentary retention controls over programmatic drawdowns need improvement 2) The State has not established a policy or standard operating procedure for monitoring 93.224 programmatic cash needs and scheduling regular drawdowns. Corrective Actions 1) Strengthen its controls over documentary retention for drawdowns. Retain expenditure reports for the basis of drawdowns at the time of filing and ensure there is appropriate explanatory documentation retained for any special reconciling items. 2) Establish clear policies and procedures for monitoring cash needs, performing drawdowns, and retaining documentation of drawdowns. Responsible Parties For CAP 1, Director of DOTA and the Chief of Finance For CAP 2, Director of DOTA and the Chief of Finance Timeline Verification of Effectiveness Conduct regular assessments to ensure the implementation of the aforementioned action plans.
Finding 2023-004: For 1 (or 1%) of 60 transactions tested, aggregating $1,187,753 out of $19,516,462 in program expenditures, the State made an advance payment using sector grant funds.

Finding 2023-004: For 1 (or 1%) of 60 transactions tested, aggregating $1,187,753 out of $19,516,462 in program expenditures, the State made an advance payment using sector grant funds. No documentation was provided to evidence prior grantor agency concurrence to waive the specific special provision. For 11 (or 23%) of 49 personnel records tested under the Compact Sector Education and Supplemental Education grants, no documentation was available to show that the annual performance evaluation had been performed. Root Cause Analysis • For advance payments, either concurrence was not obtained, or documentation was not retained; and a lack of familiarity with specific grant conditions may have contributed to the noncompliance. • For evaluations, documentation retention controls over personnel files were inadequate. Corrective Actions • For the health grants, if advance payments are necessary, the State should (a) use general fund advances with later reimbursement; (b) establish a letter of credit; or (c) obtain prior OIA concurrence. • For the Education and Supplemental Education grants, the State should strengthen controls to ensure annual evaluations are completed and retained in personnel files. Responsible Parties For bullet point one: Director of Health and his administrative officers Director of DOTA, certification and payable section For bullet point two: Director of Education and Personnel Managers Timeline Verification of Effectiveness Conduct regular assessments to ensure the effective implementation of the aforementioned action plans.

Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: CUAHSI agrees with the finding and recommendation. CUAHSI Corrective Action: Action by CUAHS! impacting audit year 2023: Certain 2023 draws were processed as advances outside grant guidelines, although these draws were properly recorded as advances payable in the accounting records. Corrective actions to processes and responsibilities impacting subsequent years: CUAHSI considers this finding resolved. A written drawdown procedure is now in place, requiring two-tier preparation and review, and, for working-capital advances, written approval from the prime funder. When the non-compliance was identified, CUAHSI suspended all NSF draws (late March 2023) until new controls were implemented. On 15 June 2023, CUAHSI completed its first draw under the revised policy.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: According to Appendix: American Rescue Plan CSLFRF HVAC Replacement and Improvement Grant Assurances of the 2021 CSLFRF HVAC Application it is stated the LEA/grantee assures: IX. It will submit such reports to the state educational agency as the state educational agency and Secretary may require to enable the state educational agency and the Secretary to perform their duties under the program; The LEA has also submitted an official correspondence to the Auditors from the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Education’s Director of the Office of Federal Pandemic Relief Programs stating the following: On April 25, 2023, the Virginia Department of Education conducted monitoring to ensure that certain federally funded programs and activities supported with Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) formula grants; ESSER and Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) state setaside grants; and Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (CSLFRF) HVAC grants were implemented as stipulated by law. These federally funded programs were reviewed as operated by Richmond City Public Schools. Furthermore, RPS is a subrecipient. As such it is our stance that RPS was not required to create or submit quarterly financial activity reports to US Treasury. We were also not required to submit quarterly financial reports to the recipient (i.e. the Commonwealth of Virginia). Instead, RPS regularly submitted expenditures for reimbursement to VDOE on a nearly monthly basis via OMEGA. We also maintained financial records (invoices, GL transactions) via AS400 and LINQ and conducted annual single audits as required by the Single Audit Act & 2 CFR part 200, subpart F. We also complied with all monitoring activities conducted by VDOE. In turn, VDOE (the award recipient) used these artifacts to create and submit its quarterly financial reports to US Treasury, as required by statute. For more evidence of this "passthrough" structure of reporting, see the attached SLFRF Compliance and Reporting Guidance published by US Treasury and Updated October 2025 Part 2 Section B (p. 21-22) for a detail of which entities are required to submit quarterly reports. The following recipients are required to submit quarterly Project and Expenditure Reports: - States and U.S. territories - Tribal governments that are allocated more than $30 million in SLFRF funding - Metropolitan cities and counties with a population that exceeds 250,000 residents Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds C - Metropolitan cities and counties with a population below 250,000 residents that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding - NEUs [Non-Entitlement Units of Government] that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding RPS does not fall into any of the aforementioned categories. We humble ask that you reconsider this finding.

Finding 2023-006 Lack of Internal Control over Cash Management Type of Finding: Material Weaknesses Name of Contact: Adela Lane, Executive Director Corrective Action Plan: 1. Strengthen the payment review process: • Action: Enforce and document a stricter segregation of duties in the payment process. This will ensure the individual requesting a payment is not the same person who authorizes the payment. • Details: All payment requests must be cross-referenced with a corresponding invoice or receipt and reviewed and approved by an authorized department head. This Department Head must not be the one who submitted the initial request. 2. Implement a two-tiered review for cash receipts: • Action: Establish a formal two-tiered cash receipts process to enhance accountability and accuracy. • Details: o Tier 1: The individual receiving and logging cash receipts will immediately perform a preliminary count and documentation. o Tier 2: A separate, authorized staff member will perform a second, independent review of the cash receipt records and verify the funds against the deposit slip before the funds are deposited. 3. Standardize training and onboarding for all staff: • Action: Develop a standardized training curriculum on financial management policies and procedures, including a dedicated section on cash management best practices. • Details: o All new permanent and staff members will undergo mandatory training on the updated policies. o Training will cover the importance of internal controls, specifically emphasizing segregation of duties in cash handling. o The Executive Director will meet with all new finance and administrative staff within their first two weeks to review proper protocols and emphasize the organization's commitment to financial controls. 4. Introduce periodic, surprise cash audits: • Action: Conduct unannounced cash counts and reconciliations to ensure compliance with procedures. • Details: An authorized, independent party will perform these surprise audits quarterly to check cash on hand and compare records against financial systems. 5. Enhance oversight and reporting: • Action: The Executive Director will provide regular updates on the implementation of these corrective actions to the Native Village of Point Hope Tribal Council. • Details: A formal report will be presented quarterly, outlining the progress of the corrective actions and any findings from the new oversight procedures. This provides a clear accountability mechanism. Proposed Completion Date: Ongoing, starting in early 2026.
