RE: 2022-23 Audit Finding #2023-002 Dear Mr. Ash; This letter is to serve as the District response to Audit Finding 2023-002 “Education Stabilization Funds – Indirect Costs (5000).” Within this finding, it is stated that indirect costs were overcharged to federal funds as noted within the audit report. Some prior calculations of the indirect costs were over the allowed amounts, but due solely to items within particular object codes that do not allow indirect cost charges. However, rates have been adjusted and indirect cost rate sheets have been within allowable ranges with our most recent interim budget reporting. Overages will be adjusted with journal entries. Thank you, Heather Leslie Chief Business Official

Action taken in response to finding: The Financial Aid administration has signed up our counseling staff to attend NASFAA’s R2T4 credential training.

Also, the report now has a built-in clock to monitor the date to ensure if corrections are need that they are done within 45 days of the R2T4. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Joshua Morey, Senior Director of Financial Aid. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: This enhanced review process was put into place in October 2023. Training for counselors with NASFAA will take place in April 2024.

On November 21, 2023, email notifications were sent to undergraduate and graduate students who applied for financial aid for the 2023/2024 academic year. We informed them of the requirement and asked them to complete a consent form. As of March 2024, we have received a 97% response rate. For those who did not respond (and those who declined electronic notifications), paper notifications were sent. Beginning with the 2025-2026 aid year, the process for receiving consent from students will be incorporated into the admission application as a separate question for undergraduate and graduate students.

Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance relating to inadequate documentation and controls in place to ensure costs are reasonable and intended for the program charged. Views of Responsible Officials: Management accepts the finding. Effective internal control over the allocation of indirect costs exceeding the de minimis cost rate of 10%, which can be attributed to a lack of communication and review of the total expenditures being charged to the federal program. Program managers were accidentally invoicing before reconciling adjustments made. More thorough training of staff, along with careful supervisory review of total expenditures being charged to the federal program, and invoicing would likely have prevented this error. Corrective Action: An annual training of all grant accountants is being developed and will cover indirect and allowable costs. In addition, a process for secondary review of all invoices is being developed.

COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan Rural Distribution Reporting Cluster: Not applicable Federal Agency: Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Award Name: Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan Rural Distribution Assistance Listing #: 93.498 Assistance Listing Title: COVID-19 - Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan Rural Distribution – Period 4 and Period 5 Award Year(s): January 1, 2020 – December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2020 – June 30, 2023 Management agrees with the finding and recommendation. Management notes that the period 4 HRSA reporting was more conservative and reported lower lost revenue. Management further notes that none of the miscalculated lost revenues were applied to any funding received as JHRP maintained sufficient capacity in amounts that qualified for use. Management reviewed the processes and controls in place for other reporting entities and is comfortable that the error was isolated to a control breakdown for the specific JHRP filing. Management notified HRSA to report the error and advise on next steps. Per HRSA’s advice, JHRP cannot restate period 4 HRSA reporting since there are no future reporting periods for a correction to be made. Management has documented the correction should there be any additional inquiries.

Through the College’s internal procedure, an error was found in the initial calculation, which resulted in a very small additional return for both students that fell outside the established time frame. The College is adding three new positions to the financial aid staff to allow for additional people to do initial R2TIVs and review calculations more quickly. Timeline for Implementation of Corrective Action Plan: Two additional financial aid counselor positions have been added to the staff in February 2024 to assist with the additional workload in the office.
