ALN: 21.027, Corrective Action Plan: Inadequate Subrecipient Monitoring - ARPA - DNRC - The Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation partially concurs with finding 2023-015 because it disagrees with the interpretation that subrecipient monitoring must occur within a specified time period and believes controls were in place during the audit period. Additionally, because the department's policy is to assign every subrecipient the same risk level until an assessment is completed, it believes it is following subrecipient monitoring requirements. As such, the department will continue to evaluate risk through a subrecipient survey and designate any subrecipient as medium risk if a survey is not completed and returned. The department has enhanced related internal controls by noting in its Risk Assessment and Subrecipient Monitoring Guidance that the agency may withhold reimbursement payments if a subrecipient fails to complete a risk survey. Additionally, the DNRC continues to perform subrecipient monitoring requirements, including verifying compliance with the Single Audit Act.  The agency has enhanced related internal controls by adding a process to review the Montana Department of Administration’s Local Government Audit Findings Report and requesting corrective actions from noncompliant subrecipients.
