Management’s Response (Unaudited) – Unfortunately, we are not able to provide documentation of this requirement at the time the contract was executed. We believe that the verification was performed, as vendor in question is not suspended or disbarred, but understand that documentation is needed. Corrective Action Plan (Unaudited) – In the future, we plan to include a requirement to respond to our RFP/RFQ that the vendor must not be suspended or disbarred. If Federal funds are allocated to the project after the RFP/RFQ process, we will verify before accepting funds or signing the contract that the vendor is not suspended or disbarred by checking the sam.gov website. Contact Person – Matt Koehn, Director of Finance Anticipated Completion Date – August 12, 2024

FINDING 2023-001 Finding Subject: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds – Reporting Summary of Finding: The Kosciusko County Sheriff's Office applied for the Indiana Local Body Camera Grant (ILBC). The sheriff’s office was awarded this grant on January 1, 2023, with a grant cost amount of up to $31,920. This grant is a reimbursable grant through the Indiana Department of Homeland Security. The period of performance was from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023. The Kosciusko County Sheriff's Office ordered body-worn cameras and equipment on April 26, 2023. The invoice for the cameras and the camera equipment was paid on July 14, 2023. The Kosciusko County Sheriff's Office then submitted a Reimbursement Claim Form on September 11, 2023. The Reimbursement Claim Form shows the Sheriff's Office incorrectly requested the full $31,920. They received $31,920 from the Indiana Department of Homeland Security on September 27, 2023. However, the county had only spent $9,581 of the grant money towards the body camera purchase. Therefore, there is a remaining balance in the fund of $22,339 as of December 31, 2023. Due to the period of performance, the county should have reimbursed the Indiana Department of Homeland Security $22,339. On May 9, 2023, the Sheriff's Office grant administrator submitted a Program Report for the ILBC grant. This report was filed without an implemented internal control or evidence of a review. The report was completed and submitted by the Sheriff's Office grant administrator. The report incorrectly indicated that all expenditures had been completed. As of the date of the submission, the county had not purchased the bodyworn cameras and all federal funds had not been expended. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Alyssa Schmucker Contact Phone Number and Email Address: 574-372-2325 aschmucker@kosciusko.in.gov View of Responsible Officials: We concur with the findings identified. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The Kosciusko Sheriff’s Office, grant coordinator will contact IDHS for instruction on how to return the $22,339.00 and prepare a claim to be processed by the Kosciusko County Auditor’s office. The grant balances are submitted each month by departments these are checked and confirmed by the Auditor’s Office this one was overlooked in the review process. The person who applied for the grant no longer works for the county. It is believed the new person handling the grants was not aware that this grant even existed. The Grant Administrator(s) will have someone sign off on the grant report submissions and forward all reports to the Auditor’s Office. Anticipated Completion Date: It is anticipated that this will be completed as soon as the information to return the funds is received from the state and the claim is submitted to the Auditor for payment. This claim will be paid as soon as it is received. On or before 12/31/2024.

Finding 2023-002 Material weakness in internal controls and non-compliance related to special tests and provisions. Federal Agency: Department of Defense Pass-Through: N/A Assistance Listing Number: 12.420 Assistance Listing Name: Military Medical Research and Development Award Number: W81XWH-18-2-0048 Period of Award: September 15, 2018 - September 14, 2024 Federal Agency: Department of Defense Pass-Through: N/A Assistance Listing Number: 12.750 Assistance Listing Name: Uniformed Services University Medical Research Projects Award Number: HU00011920056 Period of Award: October 1, 2019 - September 30, 2024 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Pass-Through: University of Utah Assistance Listing Number: 93.213 Assistance Listing Name: Research & Training in Complementary & Alternative Medicine Award Number: 10055443-02 Period of Award: September 22, 2020 - August 31, 2024 Criteria The National Institutes of Health and the Department of Defense require prior approval for a significant change in the status of key personnel including but not limited to withdrawal from the project; absence for any continuous period of 3 months or more; reduction of the level of effort devoted to project by 25 percent or more from what was approved in the initial competing year award. Condition/Context The Foundation’s internal controls require management to obtain prior approval for any significant changes or shortfalls of 25 percent or more of stated level of efforts in key personnel, from the award sponsor. During our testing, out of 22 grants tested, we noted 3 grants with instances where individuals identified as key personnel in the agreement either left the Foundation or had over 25% shortfall of level of efforts, and the sponsor was not timely notified. Our sample was not a statistical sample. Contact Person(s): Kristen Bacon, Director, Finance and Accounting. Corrective action planned: Geneva implemented the following increased measures in FY23 -- LOE operating procedures and JAMIS reports were developed to ensure that material LOE variances were detected, discussed, and if applicable, escalated to the sponsor. The Finance Office will revisit current LOE reports and if necessary, will enhance reporting to improve more visibility and completeness of LOE data by program. The Finance Office will also conduct a refresher training. As stated in the FY22 audit, management believes that review of financial and LOE reporting are clearly defined, documented, and are in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and sponsor requirements; however, management will seek to strengthen the documentation, reporting, training, and communications between Finance and the Department of Programs. If process deficiencies are identified or Standard Operating Procedures are not current, updates will be made, and end user compliance training will be rolled out to ensure a clear understanding. Anticipated completion date September 30, 2024

Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR 200.328 and 31 CFR section 35.4(c) Reporting and requests for other information, grantees are required to file quarterly Project and Expenditure Reports listing significant projects, significant payments to subrecipients, subawards, and expenditure awards greater than $50,000. Condition: The Tribe incorrectly listed some project vendors as a subrecipients on the Project and Expenditure reports. Cause: Treasury guidance for reporting subrecipients versus contractors was in transition during the reporting periods for the year. Effect: The Tribe reported subrecipients on the Project and Expenditures Reports, but did not have any subrecipients of Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). Recommendation: Update reporting to ensure payments are reported as project vendors rather than subrecipients. Management's Response: Management recognizes that the error exists and has not been able to correct the report due to US Treasury’s portal not accepting prior period revisions. Treasury has changed its guidance on SLFRF multiple times over the past several years which has created an increased risk in filing errors for all reporting for these funds. Person Responsible: Robert Schulte, CFO Anticipated Completion Date: Ongoing evaluation
