Finding: 2025-060 - DEC did not fully comply with Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting requirements applicable to FY 25 Congressionally Mandated Projects subawards. Questioned Costs: None Assistance Listing Number: 66.202 Assistance Listing Title: CMP Views of Responsible Officials (state whether your agency agrees or disagrees with the finding; if you disagree, briefly explain why): DEC agrees with the finding 2025-060. The errors and omissions were due to staff turnover, limitations of the legacy FSRS.gov reporting system, and insufficient review procedures. The FSRS platform allowed only one user per grant and lacked visibility for other staff, which contributed to reliance on PDF backups without timestamps. The incorrect subaward action dates were due to insufficient review procedures during the migration to the new and unfamiliar SAM.gov platform. DEC acknowledges the need for stronger internal controls and improved processes. Corrective Action (corrective action planned): DEC has taken steps to address the issues identified in the FFATA reporting process. To strengthen internal controls, DEC has further enhanced its existing written procedure by incorporating a visual verification checklist to ensure all data entry fields are accurate and submissions are complete. Staff have been trained on the new SAM.gov reporting and verification process to reduce the risk of errors. DEC will also implement a secondary review by verifying data entry directly in Sam.gov rather than relying on the PDF reports. As a final level of review the agency will conduct random audits on a sample of reports to verify compliance. Completion Date (list anticipated completion date): February 27, 2026.

Finding: 2025-041 - One of six Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery Pacific Salmon Treaty (PCSRT) Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) reports tested was not submitted timely. Questioned Costs: None Assistance Listing Number: 11.438 Assistance Listing Title: PCSRT Views of Responsible Officials (state whether your agency agrees or disagrees with the finding; if you disagree, briefly explain why): Alaska Department of Fish & Game (ADFG) disagrees with this finding. The FFATA report for the FY2025 NOAA subaward was submitted one month late due to resource constraints while our team was actively implementing a corrective action plan (CAP) for a prior Office of Inspector General (OIG) federal audit finding related to FFATA reporting timeliness. During this period, we prioritized fulfilling the CAP requirements, which included a comprehensive reconciliation of all subawards across federal programs to ensure accuracy and compliance. This intensive remediation effort temporarily impacted our ability to meet standard reporting timelines. The delay was not the result of a new or separate control failure, but rather a timing issue directly tied to the corrective work already underway. Importantly: • The NOAA FFATA report was completed accurately as part of the same remediation workflow. • The delay occurred while addressing the previously identified issue and was resolved within the corrective action period established with the 01G. • The root cause was the same issue identified in the existing finding, and not a new or systemic breakdown. • Updated internal controls and revised procedures were implemented during this period and now apply uniformly across all programs, including NOAA. • These corrective actions have resulted in timely, comprehensive, and fully implemented processes designed to prevent recurrence. Given that the late NOAA FFATA report occurred within the active corrective action window and was resolved through the same documented process, we view this as part of the previously identified issue rather than a separate instance of noncompliance. The corrective actions were completed as planned and have strengthened our reporting controls to ensure ongoing compliance. Corrective Action (corrective action planned): ADFG has implemented formal policies and procedures to ensure timely processing and submission of FFATA reports, fully addressing the previous OIG audit finding. These procedures are now in place and actively followed, and ongoing monitoring has been established to verify continued compliance and prevent recurrence. Completion Date (list anticipated completion date): Completed April 15, 2025 Agency Contact (name of person responsible for corrective action): Jessica Hood, Accountant 5
