2023-003 Internal Controls over Compliance and Compliance with the Period of Performance Compliance Requirement Contact: Sam Kimball Title:  Corporate Controller Phone Number: 202-296-9165 Estimated Completion Date – October 2024 Corrective Action: Management acknowledges the finding and notes that the costs identified related to a project that ended in March 2023. On October 1, 2023, the Foundation implemented a new ERP system that includes better controls around the period of performance, preventing transactions from being entered after the award end date and/or close out date, reducing the risk of recording transactions to projects outside of the stated period of performance. Therefore, management does not anticipate similar issues around period of performance going forward, as the risks are additionally addressed with the new system design.

Finding 2023-002 - Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (Material Weakness) CFDA Title and Number 66.468 Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Name of Federal Agency: Environmental Protection Agency Compliance/Internal Control over Compliance: Auditee Responsibilities Criteria: CFR Part 200.508, CFR Part 200.510, Auditee Responsibilities state that the auditee must prepare the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, which must list individual Federal awards by Federal Agency, including the total Federal awards expended, name of the pass-through entity, CFDA number, and total amount provided to subrecipients. The information contained in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards should be derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Condition: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) was not presented for audit. The City was unaware that funds borrowed through Business Oregon were federally sourced. Cause: The loan documents that were provided to the City were modified and date back several years. No individual, including those employed by the City, project managers engaged by the City, and pass-through managers were apparently aware that the loan proceeds were from federal sources. Consequently, no internal controls were designed or implemented regarding accounting for or preparation of the SEFA. The City did not provide a reconciliation of the expenditures of federal awards with amounts reported on the City’s general ledger. Effect or Potential Effect: Expenditures of federal awards and not be detected and corrected. Because the Auditee’s SEFA was completed incorrectly, and not reconciled to the general ledger the SEFA was materially misstated, prior to auditors’ correction recommendations.   Questioned Cost: No Context: Lack of adequate controls over the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and related accounting resulted in the following: • No SEFA was originally presented for auditors. • No reconciliation between federal expenditures reported on the GL and the SEFA was presented. Repeat of a Prior-Year Finding: Yes 2022-002 Recommendation: We recommend that the City establish policies and procedures to ensure that all Federal awards are identified and reported accurately on future SEFAs. Internal controls should be designed to prevent, detect, or correct errors in a timely manner by performing periodic reconciliations of the SEFA information to the general ledger throughout the fiscal year. The City should provide appropriate training to staff who are assigned to prepare and review the SEFA. City’s Response: The City acknowledges the deficiencies. Corrective Action Plan: The City will establish policies and procedures to ensure that all Federal awards are identified and reported accurately on future SEFAs. Planned Implementation Date: October 1, 2024 Responsible Person: City Manager

CONDITION: During my review of the Municipal Water Authority of Aliquippa’s internal controls over federal awards, I noted that the Authority does not have formal written policies and procedures surrounding the management of their federal award funds. Although not all-inclusive, an example of some of the required polices would include written procedures for procurement, conflict of interest, and allowable costs. CRITERIA: Section 2 CFR 200.303 of the Uniform Guidance requires non-federal entities such as the Municipal Water Authority of Aliquippa to maintain effective internal controls over federal awards. In addition, the Uniform Guidance also recommends these internal controls follow guidance in Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government (the Green Book), issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that the Municipal Water Authority of Aliquippa adopt the required written policies and procedures surrounding the management of federal award funds as prescribed by Section 2 CFR 200.303 of the Uniform Guidance. The focus of these policies and procedures should be to ensure that the Authorityofficials who are responsible for carrying out the objectives of the federal financial award understand 1) the federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the award, 2) how to evaluate and properly monitor compliance, and 3) the steps to take if noncompliance is identified. MANAGEMENT’S PLANNED CORRECTIVE ACTION: Management of the Authority will begin the process of reviewing Section 2 CFR 200.303 of the Uniform Guidance with the objective of understanding what specific policies and procedures surrounding the management of their federal award funds are required. As recommended, the focus of these policies and procedures will be to ensure that the Authority officials who are responsible for carrying out the objectives of the federal financial award understand 1) the federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the award, 2) how to evaluate and properly monitor compliance, and 3) the steps to take if noncompliance is identified. The timeframe for researching the required written policies and procedures of the Uniform Guidance, and the development and implementation of these written policies and procedures will cover the period including the last quarter of calendar year 2024 through and including the 2nd quarter of calendar year 2025.
