Subject: Education Stabilization Fund – Special Tests and Provisions - Wage Rate Requirements Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Program: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund Assistance Listing Number: 84.425U Federal Award Numbers: S425U210013 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Special Tests and Provisions - Wage Rate Requirements Audit Findings: Material Weakness Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the School Corporation in order to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the Special Tests and Provisions – Wage Rate Requirements compliance requirements. The School Corporation did not include Davis Bacon wage rate requirements in its contract with vendor which includes labor installation. The School Corporation did not obtain the weekly payroll reports certifications from vendor installing equipment. Context: The School Corporation had three projects during the audit period which included construction or labor installation which were charged to the ESSER III (84.425U) grant award. For one of two vendors selected for testing, the School Corporation did not include federal wage rate requirement clauses in the contract with the vendor and did not have an internal control designed to collect the weekly payroll reports certifications from vendors and its subcontractors, as applicable, to comply with Davis Bacon wage rate requirements. The amount disbursed for the project totaled $50,000. Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Management will ensure all construction projects anticipated to incur labor costs greater than $2,000 include a signed contract containing a Davis-Bacon wage rate provision and will monitor the vendor to ensure compliance with certified payroll reporting requirements. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: David Wolford and Wyatt Schmicker will review wage rate provisions with vendors before initiating contracts when using federal funds.

FINDING 2024-001 – SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY- PROCUREMENT AND SUSPENSION AND DEBARMENT- INTERNAL CONTROL OVER VERIFICATION AGAINST THE SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (“SAM”) Description of Finding: 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, (Uniform Guidance) requires compliance with provisions of procurement, suspension, and debarment. Non-federal entities are required to ensure that they do not award contracts or make subawards to any parties that are suspended or debarred from receiving federal funds. This verification may be accomplished by checking the System for Award Management (SAM). The Town did not have a process in place to check that vendors were not suspended or debarred by checking the System for Award Management (SAM). Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: The Town agrees with the audit finding. Corrective Action: The Town has established policies and procedures since the vendor that was selected for testing was awarded the contract to ensure vendors are not suspended or debarred by checking the System for Award Management (SAM) and maintain documentation showing that verification. Name of Contact Person: Keri Rowley, Director of Finance & Administrative Services (860) 652-7587. Projected Completion Date: Already implemented.

We concur with the auditors' finding that the Project failed to complete and submit recertifications within the required timeframe. HANDS did fail to complete recertifications timely not due to insufficient tracking, but due to lack of staff. We understand that late certifications can lead to inaccurate rents/subsidies, which lead to subsequent adjustments. We will continue interviewing applicants for vacant positions, and existing employees will continue to assist in covering the vacant positions without putting their own portfolios at risk of falling behind. We will strengthen training in the area of sending tenants HUD required notices of recertification and following the steps for termination of subsidy. The tracking system is built into our property management software, and all managers and assistant managers have been trained in its use. As stated above, we will follow the same plan of action for HUD/LIHTC training after the initial 90-day probationary period has concluded.

Context: The School Corporation was required to submit two Annual Data Reports to the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) during the audit period to meet federal reporting requirements for ESSER grant awards. We noted that the ESSER II and ESSER III amounts reported on the Year 3 report ($347,591 and $337,851 respectively) did not agree to the underlying expenditure records ($135,355 and $159,811 respectively).

Management acknowledges that there was an error with one over award of subsidized loan on a student. Student was given $448 (gross) over the aggregate subsidized limit. The overage was sent back to the Direct lender. Since the student graduated, the $448 was covered by a grant. A survey of all students was completed and no other students were discovered to have been over their aggregate subsidized limit. • A student’s aggregate subsidized amount on NSLDS from his FAFSA record was listed at $17,948, allowing only $5,052 in remaining to reach the $23,000 aggregate limit on subsidized loan. Student was given $5,500 when it should have been $5,052. The $448 should have been given as unsubsidized loan. Student had previous loans from another school. (Powerfaids will catch this error if all of the historic loans were processed within our database.) • The student ISIR record did have Comment code 258: “Based upon data provided by the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) and your grade level, we have determined that you may have received a total amount of undergraduate student loans that is close to or equal to the loan limits established for the federal loan programs. Therefore, your eligibility for additional student loans may be limited.“ • The Federal processor usually sends a post-screening after federal aid is disbursed with warnings of limits: 255, 256, 258. 260 ad 261. This would cause a C-code on the student record. We did not receive a subsequent ISIR record on said student. Corrective Action Plan: Include in the Quality Assurance rules one for the ISIR codes associated with NSLDS overawarding of loans whether it be annual limits or aggregate limits. We will monitor these codes regularly during packaging season and subsequent to loan disbursing.

Planned Corrective Action: In order to ensure that all subrecipients receive adequate notice of any changes to the grant funding source which may occur midyear, e.g. with an “offset” grant award from the Governor’s Office, Texas CASA will email an initial notification within one month to all subrecipients once we receive a midyear “offset” award with a different funding source.

This process will include an additional review by a member of the executive committee of the Board of Directors to ensure objectivity and compliance with policies. We will review all contracts to ensure that they comply with the conflict-of-interest clause.
