CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN: At Lewis & Clark, the Direct Loan acceptance process switched from affirmative confirmation to passive confirmation to streamline the student loan process for students. For loans accepted via affirmative confirmation, the loan notification must be sent no earlier than 30 days before and no later than 30 days after crediting the student’s account. The student or parent has 14 days from the notification date to request the loan cancellation. For loans accepted via passive confirmation, the loan disbursement notification must be sent no earlier than 30 days before or 7 days after crediting the student’s account. The student or parent then has 30 days from the date of the notification to request cancellation of the loan. Although the new timeline for a student to cancel a loan was reviewed prior to the process change to passive confirmation, Financial Aid neglected to update the notification letter at the time of implementation. The loan notifications now reflect the 30 days for loan cancellation. Cancellation requests of loan funds are processed promptly. Although the timeline to request a cancellation of all or a portion of a loan previously indicated a 14-day deadline, the Financial Aid office accepts most requests beyond the 14 to 30 days. However unlikely, if more than 120 days have elapsed since loan funds were disbursed, loan funds cannot be returned on the borrower’s behalf. In Spring 2024, Financial Aid established a process to send loan notifications in conjunction with weekly financial aid transmittals to ensure compliance with sending loan notifications within 7 days of crediting a student’s account. A Direct Loan transmittal report (TFAR-Transmitted FA Report) is generated through Colleague (ERP Software) weekly throughout each term, and loan notifications are emailed weekly to students whose student loans are credited to their accounts during that weekly process. To prevent Post-withdrawal disbursements of loan funds from updating and transmitting to student accounts before receipt of acceptance of post-withdrawal disbursements (PWD), upon completion of the Return of Federal Funds calculation, Financial Aid will delay updating student accounts until confirmation of acceptance within the established 14-day timeframe; this is a change from the previous practice of updating the student record and then denying the PWD until acceptance of loan funds.

Federal Program, Assistance Listing Number and Name - ALN 97.036, Department of Homeland Security, Disaster Grants – Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters) (FEMA) Condition: Original Finding Description - The FEMA grant expenses are charged to various funds in the general ledger over several years but is managed and tracked by project in a manual spreadsheet which agrees to the amount of expenses reported on the fiscal year 2024 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). FEMA expenditures are reported on the SEFA when there is an award and expenditures. Given that the award is made subsequent to the expenditures being incurred a manual spreadsheet is used to track expenditures being charged to the grant. There were instances of duplicated costs in the manual spreadsheet. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action / Anticipated Completion Date - Istakur Rahman; Anticipated completion date: June 2025 Planned Corrective Action - The identified duplicate cost was an isolated occurrence caused by an oversight during the spreadsheet preparation process. While existing controls are in place, management will perform a secondary review of the end-to-end process to enhance these controls.

Corrective Action Plan: Anticipated Completion Date January 15, 2025 Prior to Mono County Office of Education (MCOE) taking over this program in 2022-23, another agency was responsible for the original eligibility determinations and special tests and provisions. MCOE investigated further, and it was noted that the staff at the time were not following the procedures and forms that were in place. Items were either not completed or filled out correctly in many instances. When the audit finding was identified in the 2022-23 audit, MCOE took action to immediately implement new procedures to address the items noted. Although a few items were noted during the 2023-24 audit, MCOE has made significant efforts in putting procedures in place, and will continue efforts to ensure all required documentation is complete. MCOE has developed a corrective action plan as follows to adhere to strong internal control in meeting the program’s requirements: • MCOE will ensure that existing and new staff are trained to adhere to the policies and procedures for the program. • MCOE will be conducting annual reviews of all service providers and children served to ensure MCOE is maintaining the required documents on file. • MCOE has developed a double-check procedure to ensure that staff is keeping the required documentation on file for both providers and children served moving forward. I, Jennifer Weston, CBO, will be responsible for the implementation and monitoring of the corrective action plan. Sincerely, Jennifer Weston Chief Business Officer Mono County Office of Education
