Identifying Number: 2022-001 Finding: During the course of testing, the University incorrectly calculated Pell grant on one student from a sample of 40, incorrectly calculated a Title IV refund on one student from a sample of 2, and did not complete a Title IV refund within 14 days on one student from a sample of 25. Corrective Action Taken or Planned: Wittenberg University's Office of Financial Aid has seen changes in staffing over the last two years with new employees having limited experience regarding student financial aid federal, state and institutional regulations. These changes have caused delays and misunderstandings related to Pell grant calculations and Title IV refund calculations. As of November 2021, one part-time financial aid employee was hired and in December 2021, the other open position (full-time status) was filled. With new employees being continuously trained and developed on federal, state and institutional guidelines, the Director of Financial Aid, or their designee, will review all calculations performed by employees moving forward. The institution will also implement reporting tools to ensure Pell, Title IV refunds, and other calculations are correct based on federal, state and institutional guidelines. Wittenberg University's Office of Student Accounts has also seen changes in staffing over the last two years with new employees having limited experience regarding accounts receivables and Title IV regulations. These changes have caused misunderstandings around Title IV refunds. The Office will implement new reporting tools where all credit balances on students' accounts will be reviewed and, if applicable, refunded at least once per week. The weekly reports and refunds will be monitored and reviewed by the Controller, or their designee, per week in consultation with the Office of Student Accounts. Completed Date: Fiscal year 2023

The district provided documentation of the email correspondence with the design build project manager. The project manager emailed the district once a month with two separate invoices showing what work had been completed on the project. Once the email was received we had an individual internally check the invoices line for line to confirm that all costs were included in both invoices. Verbal authorization was given to accounts payable to proceed with payment. The district did not have documentation of email verification attesting approval of the invoices. Description of Corrective Action Plan: We have spoken to PSI about a process. We have determined the following, PSI requires subcontractors to submit the certified payroll reports along with their billings. PSI accounting team collects and verifies dates of the CP reports. PSI does not fund the subcontractors? billings until receipt of reports. Once PSI had verified their process the billings will be sent to the district and approval from the Superintendent or Business Manager will be determined before bills will be submitted to the Business Office Manager for submission of payment for the School Board Approval.

The district provided documentation of the invoices paid during the audit period to show the amount of the project was paid for federal grant funds at the time of the audit period. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The district has no corrective action plan because the project is now completed and Asset Control company has the full cost of the project list within our assets.

CORRECTION ACTION PLAN February 8, 2023 Oversight Agency for Audit: State of Maryland Department of Labor 1100 N01ih Eutaw Street Baltimore, MD 21201Western Maryland Cons01iium respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the fiscal year ended June 20, 2022. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: DeLeon & Stang CP As and Advisors 100 Lakeforest Blvd. Suite 650 Gaithersburg, MD 20877 Audit Period: July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 The findings from the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2022 Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS-Federal Award Programs Audits U.S. Deparment of the Treasury Passed through Dept. of Labor, Licensing and Regulation CFDA #21.127 - Coronavirus State & Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (ARPA) Finding 2022-001- Internal Controls over Suspension and Debarment Criteria: In accordance with the Uniform Guidance, recipients who receive federal funding shall fully comply with Subpart C of 2 CFR Part 180, which requires non-federal entities to verify that the person/entity with whom you intend to do business is not excluded or disqualified, if the expected payments are equal to or exceed $25,000. A non-federal entity has three options for performing this verification: 1) checking SAM exclusions; 2) collecting a certification from that person; or 3) adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that person. Condition: During fiscal year 2022, there was one payment to a subrecipient and seven financial assistance payments to local businesses that were equal to or greater than $25,000. There were no checks of suspension and debarment prior to the payment for any of these transactions. Cause: During fiscal year 2022, there was turnover in the Fiscal Manager position and per inquiry, it appears suspension and debarment checks were an oversight. Effect: In August 2022, a suspension and debarment check was performed for the subrecipient, whom was not identified as an excluded party. The remaining seven businesses were checked as a result of the audit fieldwork in November 2022 and were not on the excluded parties list. Although none of the entities were found to be on the excluded parties list, the risk of noncompliance is heightened if the suspension and debarment checks are not completed on the front-end prior to payment. Questioned Costs: NIA Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Organization review its current policies to ensure they are following the suspension and debarment provisions set forth in the Uniform Guidance, lessening the risk that payments are made to parties who may be excluded from receiving federal funds. Action Taken: In response to Finding 2022-001- Internal Controls over Suspension and Debarment the management of the Western Maryland Consortium fully acknowledges and in agreement with the finding and with the need for corrective action. The following actions will be taken: The Fiscal Policy for the Western Maryland Consortium will be amended to include procedures to check intended payee entities for suspension or debarment in sam.gov. This policy shall be amended prior to the end of February 2023. 2) Future contracts with local businesses will include verbiage or a clause that covers their eligibility to receive federal funds and/or a certification will be obtained from the entity verifying their eligibility. This action shall take place immediately on all contracts. 3) All entities that have received funds from the Western Maryland Consortium during the period of time between the end of the audit period (June 30, 2022) and the date of the finding (February 8,2023) will be checked for exclusions and/or debarments immediately. This action shall take place prior to the end of Februaiy 2023. The names of the persons responsible for the above actions are the fiscal manager, Kimberly McMurtrie, and the director, Debora Gilbert, of the Western Maryland Cons01iium. If the State of Maryland Department of Labor has questions regarding this plan, please call (301) 791- 3076 and speak to either Kimberly McMurtrie, Fiscal Manager (xl20) or Debora Gilbert, Director (x l24) at the Western Maryland Consortium.

Current Findings on the Schedule of Findings, Questioned Costs and Recommendations Financial Statement Audit None Finding 2022-001 - Major Federal Award Programs Audit Comments on the Finding and Recommendation We concur with the auditors finding as follows: In 2017, HUD had approved a loan to operations from the reserve for replacement to be repaid upon receipt of the past due subsidy. When the subsidy was received, the property was unable to repay the loan because of an unexpected increase in vacancies as a result of tenant turnover. The loan has not yet been repaid. During 2022, property transferred $9,000 of reserve for replacement funds to operations to fund payroll, the funds have not been reimbursed as of 12/31/22. Additionally, monthly deposits to the reserve for replacement have not been resumed due to poor cash flow. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding In September 2022, Owner, Management, and HUD met and a plan was made to reset and waived the past due required reserve funding while a Budget Budget Based increase was submitted and approved and new reserve funding amounts established.
