Activities Allowed and Unallowed / Allowable Costs and Cost Principles Please reference Finding 2023-002 for new procedures implemented during fiscal 2024 to ensure that payroll costs are allocated properly. In reference to the non-payroll costs, the finding arose because the Center’s participant database did not store an audit trail of the on-line approvals once the award was processed. In the current fiscal year, the Center’s software consultant worked with our software provider to update our participant database to include an audit feature which provides the full approval history for awards that are completed. Reporting The FFATA report was filed in fiscal 2024. Procedures were modified to ensure that necessary information is requested from Center subaward recipients to assist in preparing the FFATA reports. Furthermore, the subaward agreement template was revised to make reference to the need for filing FFATA reports. Subrecipient Monitoring Management has revised procedures to ensure that the subaward recipients are notified of the federal assistance listing number. In addition, Finance staff have been reminded of the necessity to communicate the assistance number to our subaward recipients.

Management of the Organization concurs with the audit finding. The Organization signed on several new providers within this fiscal year due to several other sponsoring organizations withdrawing from the CACFP program. As a result, the Organization was not able to perform all the required reviews. This had been discussed with the representative of Indiana Department of Education, Office of School and Community Nutrition (IDOE), the State oversight agency for the CACFP program, who is aware of the issue. In fact, the IDOE requested its own waiver on CACFP reviews performed for the program year October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2023 due to continued labor shortages and lack of both software developers and software companies when there has been an abundance of system changes for the program year. The Organization has already hired an additional staff as a CACFP Specialist who will monitor facilities on a full-time basis. Both the CACFP manager and CACFP Specialist have created a calendar to coordinate with the software used by the provider homes and the Organization to get all monitoring completed.

• Finding 2023-001 – The FEMA submission request was submitted by management in 2021, which occurred prior to management’s implementation of its corrective action plan to address Finding 2022-004. Management performed an independent review of the expenditure for FEMA eligibility as part of an iterative review process with its FEMA consultants and FEMA representatives. This review was also documented in management’s representation on the FEMA online portal when the submission was made. However, management’s process did not include internal documentation to evidence an independent review had occurred prior to submission. The process has been corrected for any future FEMA submissions in October 2022. o Responsible Party: Amanda Zentefis

Condition: Tiered environmental reviews were not completed for the City’s emergency and minor home rehabilitation activities. The environmental review for major rehabilitation activities was incomplete and was not submitted in the HEROS system. Planned Corrective Action: This finding was partly due to the staff members' need for more training. HUD mandated that staff undergo training on the HERO system as part of the resolution. The extra training enabled staff to revisit and finalize previous environmental reviews, ensuring compliance with environmental review regulations. After a follow-up with HUD, the agency considers the issue resolved. Going forward, environmental reviews will be conducted once every five years, which is in compliance with HUD regulations. Tiered reviews will be added as projects are completed. Our rehab specialist will be responsible for entering HEROs, and the division director will be responsible for public notices and hearings.

The University concurs with the auditors' finding. Management understands the requirement to obtain student voluntary consent to participate in electronic transactions.

During the 2024-2025 academic year UAH will make available to students the option of electronic communication or non-electronic communications by using our custom Password reset application. To access UAH services, all students must voluntarily provide consent to participate in electronic transactions. This consent will be recorded in our Banner system. The University expects to complete this corrective action plan by December 2024. For follow-up questions or if you need any additional information, please feel free to contact, contact Patrick James, Associate VP for Student Affairs, at pgj0002@uah.edu who is responsible for this corrective action.

Finding Number 2023-001: Allowable Cost/Cost Principles: Grant Award Period Year Ended December 31, 2023. Condition: In testing performed under Air Forces Defense Research Sciences Program, the Auditors indentified a deficiency that was the result of subrecipients expenses being recorded in accordance with GAAP rather than CFR compliance for the purposes of the single audit. (SEFA). View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management concurs with the finding. The Organization revised its review procedures and controls so that subrecipient expenditures are recorded in the proper accounting fiscal year according to 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F section 200.502, whereby amounts will be reported as expended when the disbursement is made to the subrecipient for single audit purposes. These steps should correct the deficiency. Contact Person: Stephanie Peluso, Senior Staff Accountant Finance (760-802-7554) and/or Diane Peluso, Senior Contract Advisor (760-522-5300) Propsed Completion Date: This action plan was completed on 5/17/2024.
