Finding 2024-214: The Department does not have documented internal controls for cash draws and requested reimbursement for the same $175,500 grant expenditure twice. Related to Prior Finding: N/A Agency’s view: Agree Corrective Action Plan: DEQ has had significant turnover in the fiscal office, which has resulted in gaps of knowledge of policies and practices. In summer 2025, DEQ leadership reorganized the fiscal department to improve efficiency, enhance oversight of grants and contracts, and strengthen financial controls. The fiscal office is currently in a rebuilding phase and is dedicated to training and developing staff, implementing best practices, and documenting processes and procedures, including those for federal grant compliance. The duplicate payment in question was issued but not redeemed. The issuance was to a similar, but incorrect, vendor name and was caught by staff before it was sent to the vendor. The transaction was cancelled in Luma but was not properly recorded in the following draw request. Fiscal staff now perform a thorough review of transactions before a loan draw is finalized in Luma, reconciling the transactions from the Loans and Grants Tracking System (LGTS) to the information generated in the Luma draw invoice. The reconciling and supporting documentation from LGTS is attached to the Luma draw invoice.

In summer 2025, DEQ leadership reorganized the fiscal department to improve efficiency, enhance oversight of grants and contracts, and strengthen financial controls. The fiscal office is currently in a rebuilding phase and is dedicated to training and developing staff, implementing best practices, and documenting processes and procedures. Along with these changes, the grants and contracts teams have been combined to help with oversight and consistency. This is particularly valuable when contracting or procuring goods or services with grant or federal funds. The agency utilizes a routing slip or checklist that includes a suspension and debarment check, which will be used and reviewed prior to entering into a covered transaction. This check will be done, and documented, regardless of whether the solicitation is through our Department, or the State Division of Purchasing. Anticipated Corrective Action Date: December 31, 2025. Responsible for Corrective Action: Linda Brown, Financial Executive Officer, at 208-373-0292 or linda.brown@deq.idaho.gov

Late Submission of the Single Audit - (Significant Deficiency) Management's Response: Management acknowledges the finding and concurs with the auditor’s recommendation. The delay in conducting the single audit and submitting the SF-SAC Data Collection Form was due to significant timing challenges driven by an extraordinary hardship: the complete turnover of the agency’s fiscal team during the audit period. This resulted in the loss of seasoned staff with deep institutional knowledge of complex WIOA fund accounting requirements, including the blending and braiding of more than 25 distinct funding sources—each with separate rules, timelines, and compliance obligations. Despite hiring experienced accounting professionals and bringing in expert support from other Workforce Development Boards, it was not feasible to finalize the financial statements and complete the audit within the original deadline. The agency has since been granted an extension by the EDD Compliance Review Office. In response, the agency has begun strengthening internal controls, establishing more detailed fiscal procedures, and implementing cross-training protocols to ensure continuity of financial reporting. These improvements are designed to protect the organization from future disruptions and ensure that Single Audit reporting packages and required data collection forms will be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within required timelines moving forward. The Agency has since taken steps to strengthen internal controls over the financial reporting and audit process. Management is committed to ensuring that future single audit reporting packages and data collection forms are submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the required deadlines. Estimated Completion Date: March 31, 2026 Responsible Party: Dale L. Stone Controller, Mother Lode Job Training

Management's Response: Management acknowledges the finding. The delay in submitting the data collection form (SF-SAC) to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse was due to inadequate internal controls over monitoring federal filing deadlines.

Management will also perform periodic reviews to ensure future filings are submitted timely in accordance with Uniform Guidance. Estimated Completion Date: 01/01/2026 Responsible Party: Shelly Swanson, Finance Manager

In our audit findings there was noted $555,000 in bids awarded were not properly advertised. There was an advertisement for a pre-bid meeting for the projects. The projects were the removal of blockages on Rough River with money received from NRCS for that purpose. The intention was for the ad to say the projects were open and that bids were to be received by a certain date. The ad was improperly ran but not intentionally. We will double check all items going to bid. If an item is sent by any department it will be double checked at the Judge Executive's office. If it originates here it will be double checked by the treasurer's office.

To ensure full compliance with prevailing wage requirements, the County will work with ADF to implement a corrective action plan focused on education, oversight, and accountability. This includes conducting regular audits of payroll records and job classifications to identify discrepancies, providing mandatory training for staff and contractors on wage determination and reporting procedures, and establishing a centralized compliance team to monitor ongoing projects. Certified payroll submissions will be reviewed for accuracy, and any violations will be promptly addressed through wage restitution and documentation updates. Clear communication channels will be maintained with subcontractors and employees to reinforce expectations and encourage reporting of concerns. This proactive approach will help safeguard workers’ rights and uphold regulatory standards.

We have reviewed the comments provided herein and are in agreement with the comments and will remediate the findings as follows: • We are reviewing the staffing of our finance department in an effort to ensure that on an ongoing basis these issues and findings are addressed and corrected. • Turnover has been due to the retirement of our Chief Financial Officer who had been with the organization for over thirty years. We made the decision to fill the CFO position vacated by the retiring CFO with the currently employed Controller. Although this transition has been in process for approximately a year, we recognize the need for ongoing training and support. We will ensure this. • Additionally, we have recruited a Staff Accountant with a start date of February 2025 to support accounting needs. • Although with this recruitment there are no Finance staff vacancies, we are evaluating to determine if we need to increase current staffing. In closing, we will support turnover and have individuals with adequate training and subject matter knowledge to perform assigned functions in accordance with appropriate standards and expectations. Additionally, we plan to finalize our internal balancing and financial reporting by August 31st thereby allowing for more time to complete the annual financial statement audit. We are always receptive to positive constructive criticism in our effort to improve upon compliance and financial reporting. Sincerely yours, Ann M. Lewis Chief Executive Officer

Management concurs with the finding and has initiated immediate steps to strengthen record retention and succession planning for federal award management. A key element of our response is the engagement our outsourced accounting provider, to ensure compliance with federal regulations and establish robust processes. To address this finding, the following actions are underway: - By December 31, 2025, management, with the expertise of the outsourced CPA firm, will implement a comprehensive record retention policy tailored to federal award management. This policy will outline retention periods, storage protocols, and access requirements, ensuring all documentation is systematically organized and readily available. - For fiscal year 2025, the outsourced CPA firm is assisting in the creation and retention of adequate reconciling schedules to support all grant draw requests, aligning our processes with federal compliance standards. - The outsourced CPA firm is also supporting the development of detailed procedure manuals for federal award processes and the implementation of a document management system to centralize and secure critical records. These efforts will mitigate the risks associated with staff turnover and ensure continuity of operations. - By December 31, 2025, management will formalize a succession planning process for key positions involved in federal award management, incorporating cross-training of staff under the guidance of our CPA firm to facilitate knowledge transfer and operational resilience. The transition to our outsourced accounting provider addresses the root causes of this finding by bringing specialized expertise and structured processes to our federal award management. We are confident that these actions will result in sustainable improvements and full compliance with federal requirements. Anticipated completion date for these initiatives is December 31, 2025. Anticipated completion date is December 31, 2025.
