Corrective Action Plan Finding 2024-001 Finding Summary: The Center did not exclude charges for patient care when calculating modified total direct costs (MTDC) in accordance with Uniform Guidance and TxGMS and thus the indirect rate used in calculating the indirect amount charged to the grant was not consistently accurate. Corrective Action Plan: The Center has historically calculated the indirect amount using the same methodology over time. Given the small volume of patient receipts, the impact on the total indirect amount is minor. We believe that had we modified our calculations, we would have had enough modified total direct costs to cover the change in the calculation. The Center will modify all future calculations to ensure alignment. We will also review the fiscal year covered under this audit to understand what the impact of the change would have been on the split between cost types. Note that since we are midway through our next fiscal year, and we consider the differences minor, we have determined that we will correct for any future reimbursement requests, but will not modify prior reimbursement requests. Similarly, we will conduct a review of that fiscal year to determine the impact of the change and verify it is not significant. Responsible Individuals: Rusty Taylor, CFO Joe Carrington, Director of Financial Planning and Analysis Anticipated Completion Date: August 2025

Finding 2024‐002 Finding Subject: Special Education Cluster (IDEA) ‐ Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Todd A. Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent Contact Phone Number and Email Address: (812) 897‐6036 tarmstrong@warrick.k12.in.us Views of the Responsible Official: We concur with the finding. Additional Explanation: Although the vendors selected provided specific services outlined in the federal grant, proper documentation of how those vendors were selected was not maintained. Moreover, the department believed by following the spending allotted in the grant, they were meeting necessary purchasing guidelines. Internal controls did not identify this misstep and allowed the services to be purchased. To avoid this in the future, guidelines will be prepared for all departments submitting purchase requests, and an additional control will be put in place to verify that procedures are followed. Description of Corrective Action Plan: 1) Create and write an administrative guideline that outlines expected purchasing procedures. 2) Distribute and make available the administrative guideline to employees. 3) Create an additional internal control in the business office to verify that those procedures were met with each requisition or request for purchase. 4) Provide necessary corrections to any request that does not follow guidelines. Mr. Armstrong will oversee, direct, and coordinate this process. He will work with the Corporation administrative team to develop and write the guidelines. The Business department will distribute the guidelines to all interested parties and have guidelines available upon request. Mr. Armstrong will outline expectations and determine when they have been met satisfactorily. Anticipated Completion Date: The remedy for this finding will be in place prior to June 30, 2025.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: We accept the validity of this finding for the same reasons stated above in finding 2024-002. We actively monitored the subrecipient’s management of the subaward through documentation and regular personal contact. However, because we did not recognize the organization as a subrecipient, we did not adhere to the proper subrecipient monitoring requirements outlined in the Uniform Guidance. Corrective Action: As noted above in the corrective action to finding 2024-002, we have notified the organization of their subrecipient status; the requirement to conduct a Single Audit of its administration of their subaward; and the need to provide the JCIDA with a copy of the organization’s most recent audited financial statements and federal Single Audit reports once completed, if they expended over $750,000 of federal awards. We will include these requirements in future subrecipient contracts.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: We acknowledge the validity of this finding and offer the following explanation.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: We acknowledge the validity of this finding and offer the following explanation. While we recognized the Agency’s role as a subrecipient, we did not fully understand the guidelines for distinguishing between a “contractor” and a “subrecipient” when making a subaward to another organization. However, through a thorough discussion and assessment of the guidelines with the auditors, along with a joint review of the GSA-CX-1.8: Subrecipient and Contractor Determination Form, we have gained clarity on the proper process for making accurate determinations in future subawards. Corrective Action: For future grant awards, Agency staff will review the use of funds in accordance with federal guidelines to determine whether the recipient qualifies as a subrecipient or a contractor. Additionally, the Agency has taken steps to notify the organization of their subrecipient status and their obligation to conduct a Single Audit in compliance with Government Accounting Standards and Uniform Guidance requirements.

William Marsh Rice University Response The following is William Marsh Rice University’s Response to the audit of Federal programs in accordance with the Uniform Guidance for the year ended June 30, 2024. Finding 2024-001 – Loan Disbursement Notification Cluster: Student Financial Assistance Cluster Awarding Agency: Department of Education Award Name: Federal Direct Student Loans Award Year: July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024 Assistance Listing Number: 84.268 Pass-through Entity: Not applicable We acknowledge the audit finding regarding the missing documentation of the loan disbursement notification for the 2023-2024 academic year. The issue began when an automated rule was disabled by a system update. This prevented the loan disbursement notices from being sent to students. Upon recognizing the underlying reason, the loan disbursement notice, which is sent one day after a loan disbursement posts to a student’s account, had its system rules reengaged. This was achieved through a collaborative effort involving the Office of Financial Aid, the Bursar's Office, and Administrative Systems. Notices resumed on September 26, 2024, and we have since conducted spot checks to confirm that the notices are being sent as required. To prevent a recurrence of this issue, we have implemented the following measures: 1. Annual Review: We have updated our staff calendar with an annual reminder to review and request updates to the text and rules of the loan disbursement notice. 2. Documentation: We have ensured that the scheduled disbursement dates and the right to cancel are disclosed in multiple areas, including the all-freshmen notice, other loan/aid award notices, the loan section of our website, and the financial aid section of General Announcements for both undergraduate and graduate students. Prior to and including the 2023-2024 academic year, this information has been updated and made available on an annual basis in these areas. This practice will continue. Effective Date: September 26, 2024 Person(s) responsible for implementation: Paul Negrete, Executive Director for University Financial Aid Services, 713-348-5905 We believe these actions address the audit finding and will help maintain compliance with notification requirements moving forward. Sincerely, Paul Negrete Executive Director University Financial Aid Services

Findings and Questioned Costs Related to Federal Awards Finding Number: 2024‐001 Program Name/Assistance Listing Title: Child Nutrition Cluster Assistance Listing Numbers: 10.553, 10.555, 10.559 Contact Person: Brian Lockery, Director of Finance Anticipated Completion Date: The finding was corrected as of February 18, 2025. Planned Corrective Action: District staff took the following steps to immediately remedy this finding:  Entered and approved a journal entry in the FY24 general ledger to correct the indirect cost transfer out of Fund 510 and into Fund 570 as authorized under the program.  Submitted to ADE a request to open a 15‐915 data correction to submit a revised FY24 Annual Financial Report (AFR), Food Service AFR and School by School (AFR).  ADE opened the 15‐915 window, and Kyrene submitted all three revised AFRs.  ADE processed and approved all three AFRs.  Kyrene submitted all three revised AFRs to its governing board for approval on March 25, 2025.  FY25 opening fund balances were additionally corrected to reflect the changes approved in the revised AFRs. Kyrene remedied this finding as of February 18, 2025. Kyrene now employs a new, revised calculator tool which limits the amount of the food service contract expenses to $25,000 maximum annually. This worksheet will be used to calculate the maximum allowable indirect cost rate transfer from Fund 510 Food Services to Fund 570 Indirect Costs.
