Finding: 2024-002 Name of Contact Person: Michael Coone, Assistant Social Services Director Criteria: In accordance with 20 CFR 681.590, local youth programs must expend not less than 20 percent of the funds allocated to them, except for the local area expenditures for administration, to provide paid and unpaid work experiences. Recommendation: Require the County Program Directors to implement procedures to ensure that earmarking requirements are met. Corrective Action/Management’s Response: Management concurs with this finding and will adhere to the Corrective Action Plan in this audit report. The County has implemented the following process: Gaston County Workforce Development Board staff worked closely with the previous Youth service provider requesting them to assign 100% of their WEX specialist salary towards work-based learning expenses to obtain this goal. With a new service provider, Two Hawk Employment Services, their financial staff have budgeted 20% of all WEX related activities, salaries, staff costs, participant costs, etc. to meet the 20% goal. Gaston County WDB and Two Hawk Employment Services have adjusted staff day sheet logs to reflect 20% of staff activities to ensure all staff are assigning the work appropriately. The Gaston County Workforce Development Board mandated in the service provider Youth contract to meet the 20% WEX Expenditure and future contract awards are determined on successfully meeting the expenditure requirement. Per the state’s most recent Youth Expenditure Report at the end of October 2024, Gaston County Workforce Development Board is 76% towards meeting the goal. The Workforce Development Board staff and management will continue to monitor monthly that 20% of all salaries and WEX activities are accurately reflected on all invoices and financials from Two Hawk Employment Services. Proposed Completion Date: Management and the Board will implement the above procedures immediately with a completion date of June 30, 2025.

The District has contacted ISBE for direction in how to address and correct the overclaim. I have been in contact with the Principal Consultant from the Wellness and Student Care Department of ISBE who is my contact for the Community Partnership Grant, since November 15, 2024 when we became aware of the error. He has contacted various other departments within ISBE as he is unsure how we should proceed to correct this error. As of the writing of this plan, no conclusion has been reached by ISBE. I am hopeful that we will have a plan and resolution prior to December 29, 2024 as that is when the final expenditure report for this grant will be due. As soon as we have direction from ISBE, we will take the steps necessary to correct this error. Going forward, we will ensure that greater scrutinization of expenditure reports is taking place to ensure that future errors such as the typographical error in this case do not occur. This will include internal processes that allow for multiple individuals to review the records prior to submission. These steps have already been taken and are currently in place.

Identifying Number: 2024-001: Audit Finding: Per relevant statutory and regulatory provisions, costs must be allowable as specified in the references indicated for each program. Criteria must be met to determine if costs, such as separation leave costs (2 CFR section 200.431(b)), severance costs (2 CFR section 200.431(i), and post-retirement health benefits (PRHB) costs (2 CFR section 200.431(h)) are allowable. The District must demonstrate that costs incurred are allowable. The Auditor noted overpayment of various payroll after the time of employee resignation in the Special Education Cluster (IDEA) 84.027/84.173. The District did not follow internal control processes / procedures as outlined per the Employee Handbook related to the employee resignation process for payroll financed by federal assistance. Employees no longer employed for the District were paid with federal assistance that were unallowable. There were questioned costs of $26,857. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: The District agrees with the finding.

Recommendation: We recommend that the District implements a process that will ensure all Title IV funds are awarded at proper amounts.

Recommendation: We recommend the District re-evaluate their procedures for processing and documenting outstanding Title IV funds to the Department of Education. Action taken in response to finding: As this is a multi-year finding, the Financial Aid department and the Business Services department have been working closely this term to develop a coordinated approach to avoid the issue going forward. Our procedures have been changed drastically. Once a student appears on a timeout / stale-dated check report from the vendor responsible for delivering aid to our students, we are reversing the funds and processing that reversal through COD first, then reaching out to the student to see if they need to make arrangements for correcting their address. This was done in the opposite fashion in prior years, and while it reduced delays for students who could rectify things, it carried too much risk of being forgotten and the 240 day mark being surpassed. The financial aid department has committed to placing the reversals and processing them through COD within seven business days of receiving the notification from the vendor and/or Business Services. This is far stricter than the federal regulations, but a seemingly necessary step to ensure compliance. Additionally, the Business Services team is aware of the impossibility of delivering aid beyond 240 days of the original check issuance and is helping the financial aid team to understand issuance dates in situations where Title IV aids may be commingled with other financial aid across multiple disbursement attempts. This coordination will ensure the District’s compliance going forward.

2024‐001 Significant Deficiency: Return to Title IV Funds (U.S. Department of Education, William D. Ford Direct Loan Program, ALN #84.268; Federal Pell Grant Program, ALN #84.063; Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant Program, ALN #84.007; and TEACH Grant Program, ALN #84.379) Name of Contact Person The Director of Financial Aid, Christin Mustard, is responsible for the corrective action plan for this finding. Corrective Action Plan We agree with this finding. After review of this student’s Return to Title IV calculation, it was determined that upon beginning the calculation in the PowerFAIDS system, the Refresh button was not used which would have recalculated the completed days to include the 9-day Spring Break. After reviewing this procedure with PowerFAIDS, it was recommended that we also enter the withdrawal date on the R2T4 tab of the POE screen which forces the system to recalculate the completed days prior to beginning the R2T4 calculation. We have added this step to our Return to Title IV procedures. Anticipated Completion Date The corrected Return to Title IV calculation was completed, which resulted in an Unsubsidized loan return of $1,029. The loan funds were returned via the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system.

Christy White 348 Olive Street San Diego, CA 92103 December 16, 2024 We have reviewed the draft of our audit report and want to provide a formal answer to the audit finding #2024-001 related to Federal Compliance: Allowable costs/cost Principles - Time and Effort Reporting. In 2023-24 we reinstated a process by which every employee partially paid by a Federal Source was assigned a duty statement. That process was not correctly implemented as we only tracked the time associated with Federal award whereas it should have included both the time associated with Federal award and the time associated with any other fund. The NEW statement will describe: • Program Service • Program Code (Funding Source). This should include the full funding of that position, not only the Federal award • Description of Monthly or Yearly Activities • Hours Funded Each month the employee will fill out a timesheet logging the entirety of their time based on the activities described in the duty statement. Time certifications will be reviewed monthly by the CBO and kept in a binder. If you have any questions about this response, please contact me directly. Best, Marie Henrio CBO

Cash Management Management agrees with the finding and the auditor's recommendation. There was confusion at the time of this agreement as the nature of the work was in line with providing institutional services rather than a federal grant agreement. This led to a misunderstanding of cash management requirements due to the nature of the award. Mass General Brigham (MGB) has removed the $215K of questioned costs from the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). The funding will be returned to Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute, Inc. in January 2025. Additionally, management will review the limited instances where departments have been previously approved to request federal cash. This review is to confirm that an exception to the standard practice of managing this through the central Research Finance team is appropriate. Based on results of this review, to be completed by March 2025, management will determine criteria and prior approval requirements for departments to request federal cash if MGB concludes this practice will continue on a limited exception basis. The review will be conducted with oversight by the MGB Vice President of Research Management and Research Finance and the MGB Research Controller.
