CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR FINDINGS REPORTED UNDER UNIFORM GUIDANCE Nine Mile Falls School District No. 325/179 September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2022 This schedule presents the corrective action the District is planning to take for findings included in this report in accordance with Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Finding ref number: 2022-001 Finding caption: The District did not have adequate internal controls for ensuring compliance with wage rate requirements. Name, address, and telephone of District contact person: Claire Olson, Executive Director of Business Nine Mile Falls School District No. 325/179 10110 W. Charles Road Nine Mile Falls, WA 99026 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: The district relied upon experienced contractors during these federally-funded projects to ensure proper contract language was used and to submit weekly certified payroll reports. The two (2) contracts without specific Davis Bacon language both mentioned local prevailing wages, which is higher than federal prevailing wages, so both the contractors and the district thought this was sufficient and would be considered compliant. Future federal projects exceeding $2,000 in federal dollars will include federal language as required by Title 29 CFR, ?5.5. The district has created a project tracking sheet which contains the following information: project location, project description, funding source, estimated contract amount, date of award, awarded contractor, SAM verification date, intent and affidavit numbers and dates, subcontractor information, and certified payroll verification for weeks work completed. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: These changes were implemented immediately.

FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS - FEDERAL AWARDS PROGRAM 2022-001 Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) Institutional Portion Assistance Listing Number: 84.425F Criteria According to the Department of Education Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund III Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) question 26, institutions may discharge student debt or unpaid balances by discharging the complete balance of the debt as lost revenue and reimbursing themselves through their HEERF institutional grants or by providing additional emergency financial grants to students (with their permission). This is available for the institutions for students who were enrolled in an institution at any point on or after March 13, 2020. Condition There was a lack of review procedures that led to not adhering to the HEERF requirements. Context A portion of HEERF institutional grant funds was improperly used to discharge student debt and/or unpaid balances, including debt and/or unpaid balances of students that were enrolled prior to March 13, 2020. Cause Insufficient monitoring of grant rules and regulations. Effect Lost revenue was calculated using an alternative method that fit within the regulations. Questioned Cost There were no questioned costs related to this finding. Recommendation We recommend that the University closely monitor all grant requirements and ensure that there are proper review processes in place to catch any potential noncompliance. Planned Corrective Action The Fiscal Staff will review and recommend to reduce / inactivate the number of accounting classifications that are no longer used, and therefore the chart of accounts will be more streamlined. The new chart of accounts will then be deployed without the same unnecessary legacy monthly closing protocols. Existing fiscal staff will now have more bandwidth to help with monthly analysis and accounting close protocols. Implementation Date Effective date: 7/1/23 for fiscal year 2024.

Finding 2022-001 ? Accounting for Notes Payable Condition: In 2016 the Agency closed on a U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development (?USDA-RD?) loan. In 2018 and 2019 the Agency borrowed a total of $143,098 under this loan. The liability associated with this note payable was not recorded in the Agency?s financial records. Internal controls over financial reporting should be in place to provide reasonable assurance that notes payable are recorded in the Agency?s financial books and records at inception and are reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As a result of this condition, the Agency?s financial records did not include the liability associated with this loan. It was necessary for the external auditors to make adjustments to the Agency?s accounting records so that the financial statements would be presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. Corrective Action Planned: The Agency will establish procedures to ensure that there is strong communication between administrative and financial management so as to identify any borrowing transactions requiring recording in the financial books and records.

SAU 58 had a big transition our office with the replacement of all three of our accounting positions; Business Manager, Payroll/HR and Accounts Payable & Grants. The Accounts Payable position was then vacated for a second time and we found a new replacement in Jan 2022. During this transition period the Time and Effort for two positions that were grant funded, was overlooked. We did provide documentation of payroll from Payroll/HR but did not get the signature of the teacher or other staff member on the Certification form. Typically, we would have been able to rectify the omission but the employees had both left our district at the end of the school year. The Business manager is ultimately responsible for the implementing of the process and internal controls and will follow up with the Accounts Payable clerk to be sure each month all documentation is on file. Since the new AP person came on, she has implemented a spreadsheet to track each employee paid by Federal Funding. This way we know who has submitted their certification, and at what point we are at during the year. We will be looking at electronic documents in the future for easier tracking and getting signatures on certification documents but as of now the spreadsheet has made this process much easier to track and be sure we do not miss documents. If a big transition happens again the Accounts Payable Clerk will be responsible for all grant compliance paper work. The Business Manager will oversee this process. The above processes and procedures have already been implemented and the Business Manager will follow up monthly with the Accounts Payable clerk. Name of Contact Person and Completion Date: Name 1 Heather McMann Name 2 Tiffany Griffin Anticipated Completion Date ? Already implemented.
