Finding No. 2025-006 – Internal control deficiencies over accounting for federal funds received from the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Corrective Action Plan Single Audit 2025 Page 6 April 30, 2026 Condition During our procedures over the Authority’s funds received from FEMA we noticed the following: 1. Return of interest earned on FEMA-related funds totaling approximately $211,853 was not timely recorded in the general ledger and was subsequently recorded through a post-closing entry dated January 26, 2026. 2. Management initially misclassified approximately $6 million received under the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds as state funds rather than federal awards. As a result, the amount was originally excluded from the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the Schedule). Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Actions It should be noted that, although certain funds received were not properly identified as working capital advances, those funds were properly considered as received from FEMA through the COR-3 office of the Government of Puerto Rico. This situation basically arises because the federal funds coming from FEMA are being handled by outside consultants, without any coordination with the Federal Funds Management Office (FFMO). The Authority’s management will ensure that, in the future, the FFMO will coordinate with the assigned outside consultants all the efforts necessary for the proper handling, identification and classification of funds received from FEMA.

Subject: 2025 Single Audit Finding 2025-004 2025-004 Management Response: Management acknowledges the finding. DEMRS did not submit the required quarterly financial and performance reports to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) for the Homeland Security Grant Program during the fiscal year. Root Cause Analysis: Over multiple years, DEMRS experienced significant turnover in key finance and grant management positions, which created gaps in continuity and delayed the department's transition to IEMA's Amplifund reporting system. As prior management departed and new staff were onboarded, the department faced operational challenges that affected the consistency of its grant reporting processes. Due to Amplifund's requirement that reimbursement requests be submitted sequentially before performance reports can be filed, the delays in prior period submissions prevented DEMRS from accessing and submitting the quarterly reports. Statewide pauses in FEMA and IEMA grant processing further contributed to the backlog. Corrective Action: DEMRS will complete and submit all outstanding reimbursement requests and performance reports for UASI 2022, UASI 2023, and UASI 2024 to bring the County into full compliance with grantor requirements. Preventive Action: DEMRS will implement a grants compliance calendar that tracks all reporting deadlines. Future reports will be prepared by the Manager of Grants & Contracts and reviewed and approved by the Associate Director of Finance, with documented evidence of review. Responsible Party: Damian Albert, Associate Director of Finance, damian.albert@cookcountyil.gov. 312.603.8177 Tina Bhaga, Manager, Grants & Contracts, tina.bhaga@cookcountyil.gov, 312.603.8543 Planned Completion Date: January 1, 2027
