Management concurs with this finding. As noted in the response to Subrecipient Monitoring – Improper Communication to Subrecipient, Subrecipient vs. contractor differentiation has been an area of continued improvement. Management believes recent efforts to properly differentiate between subrecipients and contractors has resulted in accurate determinations. However, documentation, ongoing monitoring, and communication are areas for further improvement. To that end, Management has implemented a new subrecipient/contractor determination form that includes both documentation of the determination and a checklist for ongoing compliance and monitoring for both subrecipients and contractors. This form requires that a subrecipient monitoring plan be put in place which will address compliance with all applicable federal award conditions including Single Audits. Management believes implementation of this form/process will reduce the risk of further noncompliance.

GFEMS completed the necessary reporting to the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) for the Department of State. There were no costs or loss sustained from the incident because GFEMS subtracted the misappropriated amount, $4,979.75, from the final disbursement to the subrecipient. GFEMS will continue to apply its existing due diligence and subgrantee monitoring procedures to minimize risk of fraud and non-compliance of subgrants awarded. This will include review of subgrantees policies, procedures, vouchers, receipts, and audit reports as well as desk and site visit financial monitoring, as appropriate.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR FINDINGS REPORTED UNDER UNIFORM GUIDANCE City of Davenport January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 This schedule presents the corrective action the City is planning to take for findings included in this report in accordance with Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Finding ref number: 2022-001 Finding caption: The City’s internal controls were not adequate to ensure compliance with the revenue diversion special test requirements. Name, address, and telephone of City contact person: Steve Goemmel, City Administrator City of Davenport P. O. Box 26 411 Morgan Street Davenport, WA 99122 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: The City’s airport fund balance was overstated due to a coding error by the Clerk/Treasurer in 2022. Every month the city pays the Washington State Department of Revenue excise tax for its utility funds, (Water/Sewer/Garbage funds) plus any revenue generated from the sale of graves at the cemetery, and leasehold tax on the airport hangar leases. The Clerk/Treasurer uses a spreadsheet template to calculate these liabilities. He inadvertently entered the calculated remittance into the airport fund rather than the garbage fund. The resulting error caused the city to overstate the expenditures in the airport fund and understated the expenditures in the garbage fund. The amount of the remittance that was paid to the Washington State Department of Revenue and the dollar amount remitted was correct and expended to the proper corresponding funds. This was also done on three small expenditures on the city’s credit card account. The expenditure amounts were paid but misassigned to the airport fund. All these expenditures were true and paid in a timely fashion. There was no misappropriation of funds. They were simply data entry mistakes to different funds numbers. No airport funds within any of our FAA grants were used to pay the Washington State Department of Revenue or other vendors. Under my direction, the Clerk/Treasurer has amended his calculation worksheet so that it does not include any expenditure to the Airport Fund. Airport Leasehold Tax is now paid to the Special Leasehold account of the Washington Department of Revenue. The City will institute a revised financial policy for credit card use so this doesn’t happen in the future. All credit card expenditures will be reviewed for accuracy in earnest. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: June 1, 2024
