VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS As part of the Corrective Action Plan to address the identified findings, the following measures will be implemented: • For the preparation of the SEFA, all accounts related to disaster funds will be included, considering that these accounts were segregated into revenues and expenses by the Department of the Treasury. Both categories will be properly incorporated into the SEFA preparation process. • Federal reimbursements received will be immediately identified, and the corresponding journal entries will be prepared without delay to accurately reflect the associated expenses. • Journal entries related to the reimbursement received will be prepared, and the expenses will be recorded in the appropriate accounting accounts, ensuring proper classification and compliance with federal requirements. • We are currently in the process of drafting the corresponding administrative order, for which a preliminary draft has already been prepared. This document aims to clearly and systematically establish the necessary processes and procedures, including those related to the identified deficiencies, to ensure the implementation of enhanced controls that guarantee regulatory compliance and operational efficiency. • Responsible personnel will be retrained on the processes and requirements applicable to SEFA preparation, in order to strengthen compliance and accuracy in reporting. • A fiscal section within the Office of Federal Affairs will be established to manage the fiscal process of federal funds.

In October 2024, immediately after the above-referenced fraud was committed, SELF created a new policy with tighter internal controls in regard to ACH payments. The new policy requires multiple staff members to verify any banking information (in multiple ways) before any such payment can be initiated. The new policy was approved shortly thereafter by the organization’s board. SELF also contracted with a digital security company to train all employees about digital threat awareness including fraud and phishing attempts, specifically via email. As part of these new practices, all employees are required to participate in monthly training.

To improve the timeliness and accuracy of our quarterly and semi-annual reporting, Cayuga Centers has aligned reporting deadlines with internal reconciliation schedules. A reporting coordinator will be appointed to oversee submissions and ensure accuracy. Monthly reconciliations of qualifying costs and cash draws will support this process, and a reporting calendar with automated reminders will be implemented to keep all stakeholders on track.

This finding is, in part, due to a gap in adequate personnel and oversight within the Finance Department for a brief period of time. As stated above, Cayuga Centers has contracted for Chief Financial Officer and Controller services as a near-term measure to fill gaps and improve processes. Further, Cayuga Centers has engaged grants management advisors who will assist in evaluating the scope of this asserted finding in conjunction with Finding 2024-005 to ensure any perceived deficiencies are addressed to the satisfaction of Cayuga Centers’ primary federal funder. The new Finance Team leadership have reinstated use of the class system in our general ledger to allocate direct costs to specific programs and clearly separate non-reimbursable expenses. Monthly reconciliations will be performed to ensure qualifying costs align with cash draw requests. Accounting staff have or will receive targeted training on cost allocation principles and documentation standards to support this effort.

Assistance Listing 14.231 Emergency Solutions Grants Program Assistance Listing 93.224 & 93.527 Health Center Program & Grants for New and Expanded Services under the Health Center Program Assistance Listing 93.354 Public Health Emergency Response: Cooperative Agreement for Emergency Response: Public Health Crisis Response Assistance Listing 93.667 Social Services Block Grant Assistance Listing 93.914 HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: Although we acknowledge that certain prior-year expenditures were recorded in the FY24 SEFA, we do not believe these errors were material to the basic financial statements. In addition, we do not believe that including these expenditures affected the determination of major programs or our compliance with any federal grant requirements. We confirm that our financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and that, as presented, they are materially accurate. For FY 2025, we expanded our search for unrecorded liabilities to include activity through seven months after year-end. Because the risk of unrecorded liabilities declines as we move further from fiscal year-end, we focused our review on transactions that could reasonably have a material impact on the financial statements. We will work closely with all departments to ensure that any outstanding obligations that have not yet been vouchered are identified and addressed.

Assistance Listing 97.083 Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: This finding pertains to a single Federal Financial Report (FFR) for period ending June 30th, 2024.

Assistance Listing 97.083 Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: This finding pertains to a single Federal Financial Report (FFR) for period ending June 30th, 2024. This was the first and only FFR for this grant that the Philadelphia Fire Department prepared independently. The report was subsequently reviewed, approved, and accepted by FEMA. All subsequent and future FFRs have been submitted through the FEMA GO portal, where FEMA pre-populates the digital worksheet with the relevant figures. It should be noted that these pre-populated amounts align with PFD reimbursement requests for each reporting period, rather than the city’s total expenditures on salaries and benefits during the same period. Upon notification of the discrepancy by the Controller’s office, PFD promptly contacted both FEMA and the City’s Grants office to seek clarification and guidance. Due to the federal government shutdown, FEMA has not yet responded. PFD will re-engage FEMA once normal operations resume, and if warranted will submit a revised FFR. PFD emphasizes that the discrepancy identified on the single FFR does not impact the available grant funding. Contact Person: Kelly Collins, Deputy Commissioner, Fire, 215-906-8976

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions The Grants Administrator and the Finance Department is working closely to compare all expenditures incurred by quarter to the expenditures as reported to the grantor in the quarterly reports. The Grants Administrator and Finance Department have been working to make any corrections necessary for reporting purposes and to address the timing and presentation issues of expenditures as incurred versus as reported. Going forward, the Grants Administrator will be more involved in communicating with the Finance Department, at a minimum on a monthly basis, in regard to the reporting of expenditures that are being funded by federal, state, and local awards.

On November 25, 2025, it was brought to the attention of DLA that significantly more Assistance Listing Numbers (ALNs) have been created to correlate to specific programs awarded by FHWA.

By June 30, 2026, the DLA will determine how to upload the data into the program supplement agreement or finance letter, which will be transmitted to subrecipients.

The EDD has policies, procedures, and training in place instructing employees to include applicable penalty amounts when establishing overpayments in the database. When the overpayment for the sample in question was established, the employee did not follow the proper procedure to include the penalty. EDD accepts this oversight and is committed to reviewing its applicable policies and procedures to ensure they are clear, and the penalty requirements are emphasized. Regarding internal controls, EDD leverages a process known as the Field Office Basic Evaluation System (FOBES). This process includes a standardized form that is utilized by leadership to evaluate the quality of their employees’ work on a variety of processes, including overpayment processing. EDD continues to review and modernize the existing assessment form and FOBES process to ensure effectiveness and consistency while evaluating employee compliance with policies and procedures Estimated Implementation Date: Currently Implemented Contact: Diane Underwood, Division Chief, Unemployment Insurance Branch, California Employment Development Department
