Department: Health and Human Services Title: Internal control over ELC program suspension and debarment needs improvement Questioned Costs: None Status: Management?s opinion is that corrective action is not required Corrective Action: The Department disagrees with this finding. The Uniform Guidance part 200.214 identifies that non-Federal entities are subject to the non-procurement debarment and suspension regulations in 2 CFR part 180. 2 CFR part 180 requires that ?when you enter into a covered transaction with another person at the next lower tier, you must verify that the person with whom you intend to do business is not excluded or disqualified. You do this by: (a) Checking SAM Exclusions; or (b) Collecting a certification from that person; or (c) Adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that person.? The Department meets this requirement as part of the contracting process by collecting certifications from the Community Agencies stating that they are not suspended or debarred. Therefore, we are in compliance with the Federal requirements for Suspension and debarment. The intent of the Department?s policy to utilize the System for Award Management Exclusions (SAM) is to be an optional and additional assurance to the required collection of certifications that the next lower tier persons are not suspended or debarred. The SAM is utilized as time and resources permit and is not intended to replace the certifications.

FINDING 2022-006 Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Schauna Relue Contact Phone Number: 260-665-2854 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The ESSER reports requested by IDOE will follow the same procedures of all FER reports. The ?data collection? for the ESSER grants was not identified as a financial report, and thus did not follow these processes. Now that we know this is a financial report, the steps below will be followed. The grant was initially not set up correctly and expenses were expended to and then transferred to the correct accounts once the grants were set up correctly. These changes were in flux when the report was requested, so what was reported at the time of the report is no longer what is reflected in grants? ledgers. The corrective action will require that the program director gathers the initial data, the data will be reviewed by the administrative assistant to the grants? director, and then reviewed by the Treasurer. All three employees will sign/initial a printed copy of the report before it is submitted. Data regarding students served by programs and staff reports will be reviewed by the program director and the data specialist and signed off on by both parties to ensure accuracy. Anticipated Completion Date: Effective Immediately; Completion will occur when the next report is requested.

NEISEC Treasurer will reach out to MSD of Steuben during the writing process of the IDEA 611 and 619 grants in order for MSD of Steuben to submit their plans for their allocation of proportionate share money. NEISEC will provide the allocation amounts to MSD of Steuben. These submissions will include a proportionate share budget and include proportionate share staff names and any necessary information for the budget categories. The NEISEC Treasurer will then compile the proportionate share information on the grant submission. The LEA Treasurer will be given a copy of the grant application and budget upon approval of the grant. Any NEISEC employee being paid out of proportionate share grant funds for salary and benefits will be paid from the LEA?s financial software. The LEA Treasurer will keep a spreadsheet of employee proportionate share expenses and this spreadsheet will be updated monthly based on time and effort logs that are submitted by MSD of Steuben to the LEA and NEISEC. Any employee utilizing proportionate share funds that is not an employee of NEISEC, but rather a direct employee of MSD of Steuben, will be paid directly by MSD of Steuben. Time and effort logs will still be submitted to the LEA and NEISEC Treasurers for these employees in order to generate a direct reimbursement from the grant fund to the member school. For any expenses for a category outside of salary and benefits, MSD of Steuben will submit an invoice and proof of purchase for equipment, supplies, etc. to NEISEC and the LEA in order to be directly reimbursed for those proportionate share expenses. If the request was not in the initial grant budget, MSD of Steuben will submit all relevant information to NEISEC in order for a grant modification to be completed. Per IDOE, the grant modification must be approved first prior to purchasing the items. Time and effort logs as well as invoice and proof of payment will be sent to the LEA Treasurer in order to complete the grant reimbursement requests. At the end of the grant period, any remaining proportionate share money will require that a waiver be completed. As of this date (2/10/2023) the LEA (DeKalb County Eastern CSD) and NEISEC are still in communication with SBOA and IDOE to review the proportionate share plan and ensure all necessary requirements will be satisfied. This will be communicated with MSD of Steuben. Anticipated Completion Date: Changes discussed above will be implemented for the remainder of the FY23 grant period starting 07/01/2023.

The Office of Federal Emergency Relief Programs (OFERP) utilized guidance provided by the U.S. Department of Education (grantor) and conferred in writing with Maine?s assigned U.S. Department of Education program officer throughout the Education Stabilization Fund application review process. The Maine Department of Education?s OFERP provided the auditor with the grantor?s guidance which clearly states that the questioned costs were allowable, reasonable, and necessary to prepare, prevent, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the application review process, OFERP utilized ESF federal statutory language and the grantor?s published guidance to determine allowability. Once funding applications were approved, SAUs requested reimbursement from the OFERP for the approved costs outlined in the school administrative unit (SAU) application. The OFERP reviewed SAU reimbursement requests and provided payment for approved expenses. The ESF costs outlined in this finding were allowable, reasonable, and necessary to prepare, prevent, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Documentation provided by the grantor supports the determinations made by the Maine Department of Education.

Department: Labor Administrative and Financial Services Title: Internal control over CSLFRF expenditures needs improvement Questioned Costs: Known: $51,482,644 Likely: $51,482,644 Status: Management?s opinion is that corrective action is not required Corrective Action: We disagree with this finding. Likewise, we are unable to determine why the auditor has identified a questioned cost or includes a recommendation that only allowable costs are funded by CSLFRF. The transfer of $80 million to the Unemployment Trust Fund is completely allowable, with a portion categorized under the Public Health and Economic Impacts use category and a portion under the Revenue Loss - Provision of Government Services use category. All documentation to support the allowability of this transfer was provided to the auditor for review. There were errors in the original calculation of the total amount eligible under the Public Health and Economic Impacts category; however, we provided documentation to support that the total amount was eligible under the Revenue Loss - Provision of Government Services use category. Although we have identified a weakness in internal control over compliance, there was no actual noncompliance. Consequently, there is no cost that is considered unallowable; therefore, there should be no questioned cost.
