U.S Department of Education (USDE)Recommendation: We recommend that the Department continue to implement the sub recipient monitoring procedures and develop internal controls to ensure that the monitoring requirements are performed in a consistent and timely manner. Furthermore, the procedures should ensure that the documentation supporting compliance is maintained and readily available for review. We also recommend that the subawards contain all required federal award information. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: [Describe action planned or taken]. The Department has engaged a vendor to perform subrecipient monitoring of federally funded COVID relief grants (Assistance Listing No. 84.425 C, D, R, U, V, W and CSLFRF). MSDE worked with the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) to receive approval to enter into a contract with Hagerty Consulting since October of 2024. The target date of completion is October 31, 2025. In addition, the Contract Manager will monitor and ensure that all deliverables have been satisfactorily completed and documented. Further, the Program Manager will create or review existing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) regularly and update as necessary to ensure monitoring requirements are performed in a consistent and timely manner and that subawards contain all the required federal award information. Maryland State Department of Education respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2024. Audit period: July 1, 2023-June 30, 2024 The findings from the schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below.

2024-007 Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance The Child Nutrition Cluster: 10.555 – National School Lunch Program and 10.559 – Summer Food Service Program 10.558 – Child and Adult Care Food Program Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Education Contract Number: 359-46-477-8 Condition: During our testing of subrecipient monitoring activities for PDE programs CACFP, NLSP, and SFSP, we selected 31 contracted centers at random. Management provided documentation for each site, including contracts, meal pattern usage records, licensure and training documentation, and both announced and unannounced meal observation reviews. However, we found that CBS Food Program did not always maintain sufficient evidence to prove required monitoring was performed under the CACFP program. For one center, management could not produce proof that meal observation reviews or the mandated two unannounced visits occurred. At another center, neither a contract nor any meal observation review records, including the two required unannounced visits, could be provided. For the NLSP and SFSP, management was unable to provide contracts for any of the seven sampled centers. Additionally, there was no evidence of training for one center, and a second center had a noncompliant monitoring visit; although corrective action was prepared, follow-up occurred only after 66 days instead of within the required 45-day window. Recommendation: We recommend that management strengthen internal controls to ensure all required PDE CACFP, NLSP and SFSP subrecipient monitoring activities, including scheduled meal observations and the mandated unannounced visits—are consistently performed, documented, and retained. Management should implement a centralized tracking system to monitor review deadlines, required follow up actions, and receipt of supporting documentation from each contracted center. In addition, staff responsible for monitoring should receive periodic refresher training on PDE CACFP, NLSP and SFSP specific expectations. Finally, management should conduct periodic internal reviews to verify that monitoring documentation is complete, compliant, and appropriately maintained. Repeat Finding: No Explanation of Disagreement with Audit Finding There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Community Benefit Solutions shall utilize internally developed Quickbase application to schedule and track monitoring visits including ensuring necessary corrective action follow-ups are conducted within 45 days documented corrective action needed. Moreover, Community Benefit Solutions will require all monitoring staff to successfully complete monitoring specific training in addition to the annual and civil rights training to ensure up to date knowledge of all requirements. Trainings will be assigned, monitored and signed off on by Director of Operations. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: June 30, 2025

Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners: This issue originated under the prior County Clerk’s administration where key reporting processes were not followed. The Board of County Commissioners and the other elected officials have made correcting this a top priority. Together, we are: • developing a comprehensive SOP to ensure accurate and timely tracking and reporting of Federal funds, • improving communication and oversight between all county offices to ensure consistent reporting standards, • and ensuring annual compliance with federal reporting requirements. Our collective goal is to implement the policies and structures that will keep Osage County operating with the highest standard of accountability and excellence County Clerk: I was not the County Clerk in office at this time. To correct this issue, the County plans to develop a SOP to timely and accurately track and report on Grants and Awards. The SOP will be reviewed, adopted, and monitored by the Board of County Commissioners.

Views of Responsible Officials: CIF grew substantially in FY 24 following execution of the Federal award. This finding reflects the learning phase as CIF came into compliance with the Uniform Guidance. This FY 24 Program Audit immediately preceded the FY 25 Single Audit in fall 2025. Given this timing, the earliest possible implementation of corrective action is in FY 26. Beginning in FY 26, CIF implemented multiple corrective actions to address this finding: 1. CIF created a new template for Subaward Agreements that includes all elements required under 2 CFR 200.332(b). This template will be used for any future Subaward Agreements into which CIF enters. 2. CIF created an Amendment template for each active federal award Subaward/Subrecipient Agreement that includes all elements required under 2 CFR 200.332(b), a requirement to submit period financial reports to CIF, and a section on compliance with audit requirements according to 2 CFR 200.332(g) / 2 CFR 200.501. 3. For each Subrecipient of CIF’s grant NR233A750004G045 under ALN #10.937, formerly known as the Partnerships for Climate Smart Commodities grant but now known as the Advancing Markets for Producers (AMP) program, CIF will use that template to execute an Amendment to the Subaward/Subrecipient Agreement following the execution of the Amendment to the Grant Agreement between CIF and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). 4. CIF implemented a schedule for reviewing current subrecipients’ FY 25 Audit Reports after they are published in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in mid-2026, document the impact of any audit findings on the federally funded program, and implement a corrective action plan. 5. CIF made revisions in the FY 26 update to the CIF Subaward Management & Subrecipient Monitoring Policy and Procedures which will apply to any new subawards. The pre-award risk assessment procedures now include dating and ensure that results are documented prior to subaward execution. The monitoring procedures are now explicitly linked to risk assessment results, with greater oversight required for subrecipients without experience managing federal funds.

Response to finding 2024-003 – Subrecipient Monitoring Views of Responsible Officials: CSforALL management agrees with the conditions identified by SAX Advisory Group, including the noted causes and resulting effects under 2024-003. Due to the organizational pause at the end of 2024 and the transition period throughout 2025, the Organization had limited capacity to maintain formalized subrecipient monitoring procedures aligned with 2 CFR 200.332. As CSforALL prepares for the 2026 rebuilding phase, management is establishing structured policies and procedures to ensure full compliance with federal subrecipient monitoring requirements. Corrective Action taken in 2025: During 2025, the Operations Manager ensured that all subrecipients associated with the current Alliance grant have signed or will sign formal Statements of Work with explicit deliverables and expectations required for payment. External parties without a Statement of Work are now required to submit proper documentation, invoicing, and proof of deliverables before any funds are released. No payments have been made to participants under the FY 2025 Alliance grant to date, as CSforALL is ensuring that all required policies and procedures are in place prior to both drawing down and paying out funds. Weekly and quarterly meetings have been established with external partners responsible for deliverables to confirm timelines, verify progress, and ensure alignment with payment expectations. Corrective Action Planned for 2026: Beginning in 2026, CSforALL will formalize subrecipient monitoring policies aligned with 2 CFR 200.332, including risk assessments for all subrecipients, review and documentation of Single Audit reports where applicable, issuance of management decisions, and structured ongoing monitoring activities. All monitoring documentation will be maintained in a centralized, accessible system to ensure consistent compliance throughout the 2026 operating year and beyond.

Assistance Listing 93.914 HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: HHS acknowledges the Controller’s finding that management decision letters were not issued for specific subrecipient audit findings under ALN 93.914, as required under 2 CFR 200.332(e) and 200.521. While the formal letters were not issued, HHS did review the audit findings, obtained and evaluated the subrecipients’ corrective action plans and confirmed that no questioned costs or additional risks remained. These steps ensured that the underlying corrective actions were completed. To strengthen documentation and ensure consistency across all federal programs, HHS will adopt the following corrective measures: 1.Standard management Decision Template •HHS will adopt a simple, uniform management decision template and clear steps for documenting decisions within the required federal timelines. 2.Central Location for Documentation •HHS will store all management decision letters and related materials in one designated shared location to ensure accessibility and consistent record-keeping. 3.Brief Staff Guidance •HHS will provide concise written guidance to staff outlining: oWhen a management decision is required, oHow to complete it using the template, and oWhat documentation must be retained? These corrective actions will ensure consistent compliance with federal requirements while supporting the City’s long-term goal of standardizing financial processes across departments.

Assistance Listing 93.323 Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases Program Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: The Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH) acknowledges the Office of the City Controller’s finding. PDPH maintains a process to identify subrecipients during the contracting process. Contracts with subrecipients include federal compliance language. The three entities identified in this finding, including Concilio, Urban Affairs Coalition (UAC), and Public Health Management Corporation (PHMC), should have been classified as vendors and not subrecipients. These entities were not responsible for programmatic decision-making. This error has been corrected in subsequent contracts. Despite the misclassification, appropriate vendor monitoring was conducted, including supervision of staff hiring and monitoring and reconciliation of monthly invoice packages.

Assistance Listing 93.136 Injury Prevention and Control Research and State/Community Based Programs Views of the Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: The Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH) acknowledges the findings of the Office of the City Controllers. PDPH confirms that risk assessments and related monitoring documentation for all subrecipients were not consistently completed or retained during the audit period, primarily due to staff turnover and limited administrative capacity within the grants management function. To address this, the Division of Substance Use Prevention and Harm Reduction (SUPHR) has initiated corrective measures to strengthen compliance with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.332. These measures include implementation of standardized tools and procedures to ensure that subrecipient risk assessments, monitoring activities, and the review of financial and performance reports are conducted in a consistent, timely, and well-documented manner. Implementation of these improvements will enhance internal controls, ensure appropriate oversight of subrecipients, and promote full compliance with federal regulations. The Department anticipates that tools and standard operating procedures will be finalized by December 19, 2025, with full implementation of corrective actions by March 3, 2026.

The Program Quality Improvement Branch (PQIB) has resolved the risk assessment application finding. Risk assessment criteria is applied and documented on all agencies annually. Documentation of the applied risk assessment is in the caseload spreadsheet. The Continuous Improvement Plan (CIP) process was implemented in FY 24-25. The updated procedures have been applied for tracking. The process ensures reports are received for all programs requiring follow-up from outstanding findings identified during Contract Monitoring. FY 25-26 will be the first full year of implementation of this practice and the PQIB will conduct internal monitoring to ensure procedures are followed. A spreadsheet tracks all areas of the monitoring tool that require follow up. Additionally, the CDSS has fully adopted a process for audit report monitoring responsibilities of Local Education Agencies (LEA) and certain non-LEAs receiving Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Cluster program funds. This process applies to monitoring of FY24-25 audit reports and includes notifying contractors and certified public accountant (CPA) firms that the CDSS must be reported as the pass-through entity for the CCDF cluster on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) in single audit reports. When the CDSS audit monitoring discovers the CDE as the pass-through entity on SEFA, the CDSS will directly request the CPA to revise the SEFA. Estimated Implementation Date: Fully Corrected.

On November 25, 2025, it was brought to the attention of DLA that significantly more Assistance Listing Numbers (ALNs) have been created to correlate to specific programs awarded by FHWA. While the Caltrans Division of Local Assistance does not have the capacity to electronically identify the ALNs, the Caltrans Office of Federal Resources (OFR) owns the database that DLA uses to process federal requests for authorizations. By January 31, 2026, DLA and OFR will meet with FHWA to determine how they may transmit the ALN into Caltrans’ database. By June 30, 2026, the DLA will determine how to upload the data into the program supplement agreement or finance letter, which will be transmitted to subrecipients.

Finding 2024-215: The Department did not document subrecipient risk assessments or ensure subrecipient audits were received for the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund. Related to Prior Finding: 2023-206 Agency’s view: Agree Corrective Action Plan: DEQ has had significant turnover in the fiscal office, which has resulted in gaps of knowledge of policies and practices. In summer 2025, DEQ leadership reorganized the fiscal department to improve efficiency, enhance oversight of grants and contracts, and strengthen financial controls. The fiscal office is currently in a rebuilding phase and is dedicated to training and developing staff, implementing best practices, and documenting processes and procedures. Along with these changes, the grants and contracts teams have been combined to help with oversight and consistency. This is particularly valuable when contracting or procuring goods or services with grant or federal funds. The Department created a Subrecipient Monitoring Policy that will be implemented by the end of this calendar year, December 31, 2025. This policy includes a risk assessment checklist that will be used prior to issuing a subaward. The results of the risk assessment, the overall risk level, and the level of monitoring will be included in the subaward agreement. The risk assessment and the process will be documented with each subaward request.

Finding 2024-210: The Department did not complete sufficient subrecipient monitoring for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) program during fiscal year 2024. Related to Prior Finding: N/A Agency’s view: Disagree Corrective Action Plan: Although the Department agrees that not as many LEAs were monitored as might normally be in a given year, the Department is on track to have monitoring activities completed for all LEAs within the five-year cycle and in accordance with the US Department of Education’s six-year cycle. There is no statute that states a certain amount of monitoring must take place each year. Rather, states are required to monitor all LEAs within a six-year period. In Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) QA 23-01, State General Supervision Responsibilities under Parts B and C of the IDEA, it states: “States should ensure all LEAs or EIS programs are monitored at least once within the six-year cycle of the State’s SPP/APR, presumptively implementing a reasonable timeframe for monitoring.” (See also Q A-11). The special education fiscal monitoring process includes robust written policies and procedures to meet federal requirements, and the Department underwent thorough federal on-site monitoring by OSEP in FY 2024 and passed without any fiscal findings. The LEA fiscal monitoring is assigned and takes place throughout the state fiscal year. The Department has completed or is in the process of completing 88 LEA monitors for the first three years in the cycle before the end of calendar year 2025. Corrective actions will be forthcoming, and LEAs have 365 days to complete any state monitoring and enforcement corrective actions under 34 CFR 300.600(e). This program-specific rule complements the Uniform Grant Guidance of 2 CFR 200.332(d) in which passthrough entities (SEAs) “must ensure subrecipients take ‘timely and appropriate action’ to correct deficiencies.” The Department is currently transitioning to year four of the five-year cycle for FY 2025-26 (reviewing FY 2024-25 records). With the support of five contracted staff, 60 LEAs are scheduled between December 2025 and June 2026 to review FY 2024-25 fiscal records (made available in November 2025 when CPA audits are due to the state). The Department is also continuing to close out corrective action plans for LEAs from prior reviews. Year five (FY 2026-27) of the cycle will evaluate the FY 2025-26 fiscal records of remaining LEAs. Those LEAs will not be available to monitor until November 2026 when LEA CPA audits are finalized and available. The Department will conduct those reviews in FY 2026-27 (after November 2026). The Department will continue to conduct other monitoring activities throughout the year for all LEAs including through claim reimbursement reviews, the annual IDEA Part B Application, and the risk assessment activities in alignment with Idaho’s Special Education System of General Supervision.

Finding 2024-002 - Subrecipient Monitoring Federal Agency: Department of Treasury Program: COVID-19 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds - ALN #21.027 Condition: As part of the monitoring process, the County did not obtain and review the annual audit reports of subrecipients. Planned Corrective Action: Upon notification of this issue during the 2024 Single Audit, the County immediately took action to implement corrective actions to be compliant with this with this requirement. The County modified the subrecipient quarterly report template for Q3 2025 to include a question requiring all subrecipients to verify if they were audited as required by subpart F of 200.332. The County then conducted the required follow up to obtain and review each audit to identify any significant developments that might negatively impact the subaward. Of the 27 subrecipient audits reviewed, only one had a finding related to 21.027 regarding keeping records of their reporting to the County and hiring a full-time finance director. The County followed up with the subrecipient to confirm that they have put their corrective action into place and the subrecipient responded that this was complete. Additionally, there were four subrecipients who reported that they were required to have an audit, but it wasn't completed yet. The County is in the process of conducting follow-up with these organizations to remind them of their responsibilities under 200.332 and to obtain and review the required audits. The County will conduct subrecipient monitoring of ARPA subrecipients each year throughout the remainder of the program. Additionally, the Controllers department will provide Subrecipient Monitoring training and information in 2026 to County departments who administer subrecipient funding in order to assist them in fully complying with this requirement Name(s) of contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Fonta Reilly and Eli Gilman Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Corrective action implemented in November 2025

Finding 2024-001 Audit Finding: In accordance with 2 CFR § 200.332(a) of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), pass-through entities are required to “clearly identify to the subrecipient” certain information and requir...
Finding 2024-001 Audit Finding: In accordance with 2 CFR § 200.332(a) of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), pass-through entities are required to “clearly identify to the subrecipient” certain information and requirements at the time of subaward, including the Federal award identification, all compliance requirements, and any additional terms and conditions imposed by the pass-through entity. The Town did not execute a formal subrecipient agreement with Fishers Island Ferry District, to whom federal funds were passed through during the audit period. Specifically, no written agreement was in place outlining the subrecipient’s responsibilities, applicable compliance requirements, or the terms and conditions of the award. Recommendation: We recommend that the Town develop and implement procedures to ensure that formal written subrecipient agreements are executed prior to the disbursement of federal funds. These agreements should contain all elements required by 2 CFR § 200.332(a), including the identification of the federal award, applicable compliance requirements, and any additional terms and conditions. Corrective Action Plan: In coordination with the Supervisor’s office, Town Attorney’s office, and Comptroller’s office, formal subrecipient agreements will be prepared and executed, with adoption of Town Board resolutions, between the Town of Southold and pass-through entities concurrently as Federal grant contracts are awarded, as applicable. Responsible Individual: Albert J. Krupski Jr., Town Supervisor Paul DeChance, Town Attorney Michelle Nickonovitz, Town Comptroller Planned Date of Implementation: Corrective action plan procedures have already been communicated and implemented to ensure that formal written subrecipient agreements with pass-through entities are executed prior to the disbursement of federal funds.

Finding 2024-002 – Subrecipient Monitoring (Significant Deficiency) Recommendation: We recommend that procedures be implemented to ensure all subrecipients are notified of subaward requirements as outlined in 2 CFR 200.332(b) and the County implement a process to ensure all subrecipients audits are reviewed and deficiencies be followed up on. We also recommend that the County perform annual risk assessments for all subrecipients. The Area Agency on Aging failed to conduct the required annual risk assessment prior to disbursing funds. Corrective Action: • All divisions within the Department of Human Services (excluding Gracedale) will conduct an annual risk assessment for each provider during the contracting process. • DHS Policy 300.8 will be revised to include a standardized, department-wide risk assessment form for use across all divisions. The County did not ensure that all Foster Care Title IV-E and aging subrecipients were notified via contract or letter of their subaward Assistance Listing Number (ALN) and the amount paid during the year. Corrective Action: When issuing contracts, the County will include a notification letter to each provider indicating whether they have the potential to be a subrecipient of federal funds. If applicable, the letter will also include the relevant Assistance Listing Number (ALN). After the close of each fiscal year, the County will issue a summary letter to all subrecipients detailing the total amount of federal, state, and county funds paid to them. The portion of federal funding will be clearly identified and accompanied by the corresponding ALN. Cindy Smith, Financial and Information Systems Director for the Department of Human Services and her staff will be responsible for the corrective actions for finding 2024-002. The Department of Human Services began issuing notification letters in fall 2025 to vendors identified as potential subrecipients of federal funding. These notifications apply to fiscal year 2025–2026. In addition, summary letters informing vendors of federal award amounts are currently being distributed for fiscal year 2024–2025.
