Finding: The Department of Commerce did not have adequate internal controls over and did not comply with requirements to issue management decisions for audit findings to subrecipients of the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program. Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 93.568 93.568 COVID-19 Status: Corrective action complete Corrective Action: The Department?s internal control officer is responsible for completing the monitoring of federal reporting and issuing management decisions for subrecipients who receive federal audit findings for programs funded with the Department?s federal pass-through funding. Beginning in December 2021, the internal control officer documented all findings, corrective action plans, and communication with subrecipients in a monitoring spreadsheet. This enabled the Department to ensure all efforts in monitoring subrecipients were taken. In May 2022, all management decisions were added to the monitoring spreadsheet which documented the Department?s management decisions. To ensure compliance with federal requirements for subrecipient monitoring, the Department has implemented the following process: ? Review all audit findings issued to Department subrecipients. ? Review each subrecipient?s corrective action plan. ? Review and discuss all findings and corrective action plans with subrecipients to identify and understand the basis for the deficiency and planned corrections. ? Create a management decision for each subrecipient finding, receive leadership approval, and formally communicate the decision to our subrecipient. ? All management decisions will be formally communicated to our pass-through subrecipients within the six-month federal deadline.

Finding: The University of Washington did not have adequate internal controls over and did not comply with federal requirements to ensure subrecipients of the Global AIDS program received required single or program-specific audits, and that it followed up on findings and issued management decisions. Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 93.067 93.067 COVID-19 Amount $0 Status: Corrective action in progress Corrective Action: The University maintains that there are adequate internal controls to ensure the Global AIDS program complies with the requirements for pass-through entities as outlined in Uniform Guidance 2 CFR ? 200.332 and the university policy incorporated in Grants Information Memorandum 8. As noted in the finding, the University uses a certification process to obtain information and documentation needed, such as audited financial statements, from each subrecipient and perform a risk assessment using standard risk criteria. For the one exception identified by the auditors, the University misinterpreted the response provided by the subrecipient regarding whether it expended $750,000 or more in federal awards during the fiscal year. Although the single or program specific audit report was not obtained and reviewed, a risk assessment was performed on the subrecipient. With a medium risk rating, the subrecipient was subject to monitoring at the program level throughout the project during the period in question, in accordance with University policy. The University will: ? Update the certification process with all subrecipients to confirm if federal expenditures during a fiscal year exceed the $750,000 threshold to require a single or program-specific audit. ? Issue written management decisions for all applicable audit findings. ? Ensure subrecipients develop and perform acceptable corrective actions to address all audit recommendations, if applicable.

View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan –The Organization agrees with this finding. The Chief Financial Officer in collaboration with the Finance Associate and the Financial Consultant will set a calendar at the end fof the fiscal year to ensure timely closeout of the books that will allow ample time to engage and complete the audit prior to the deadline for the FAC filing.

Through the assistance of the Oklahoma State Auditors and Inspectors Office, we have received appropriate instruction on how they wish the appearance of the SEF A to be. We believe this issue to be resolved and will be reported as instructed from this point forward.

The BOCC will work to design and implement internal controls to ensure accurate reporting of federal expenditures on the Schedule of Federal Awards (SEFA) and ensure compliance with federal requirements.

View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corretive Action Responsible Party: Executive Director The single audit requirement was new to KMNH as a result of ESG CV funding. KMNH completed the procurement process as required by HUD, but did not receive any response from qualified service providers despite proactive outreach on our part. We were informed that many of the audit firms were overwhelmed by the need to complete audits due to the increased level of federal funding due to COVID. KMNH has since been able to secure an audit firm to complete the audit after the stipulated due date. The same audit firm has been engaged to complete our audit for year ended December 31, 2022. The benefit to using the same audit firm is that their understanding of KMNH’s financial reporting and grant compliance processes learned during the 2021 audit should contribute to an expeditious 2022 audit. KMNH will work diligently with the audit firm with the goal of completing the audit as soon as possible.
