A property record or capital asset listing is required to be maintained for all equipment purchased with the Airport Improvement Program grant award to ensure adequate safeguards are in place to prevent loss or damage of items. The Authority used federal funds to purchase a snow broom costing $300,551. The equipment was included in the capital asset listing of the Authority; however, it did not include the proper identifying information. The Authority's capital asset listing did not include the following required information: The use and condition of the property. The percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired. The lack of internal controls and noncompliance were systemic issues throughout the audit period.

Cause The Authority was unaware of the requirements to track the percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired and the use and condition of the property. Effect Without the proper implementation of an effectively designed system of internal controls, the internal control system cannot be capable of effectively preventing, or detecting and correcting, material noncompliance. As a result, capital assets purchased with federal dollars were not properly added to the Authority's capital asset listing. Noncompliance with the provisions of federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award could result in the loss of future federal funding to the Authority.

(4) Adequate maintenance procedures must be developed to keep the property in good condition. . . ." Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the City to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the Equipment and Real Property Management Requirements compliance requirements. Cause: The City's management had not developed a system of internal controls to ensure compliance with the compliance requirements listed above. Effect: The failure to establish an effective internal control system place the City at risk of noncompliance with the grant agreement and the compliance requirements. The lack of internal controls could have allowed misuse and mismanagement of federal funds and assets by not having proper oversight, reviews, and approvals over the activities of the program. Questioned Costs: There were no questioned costs identified. Context: The capital asset listing provided by the City did not include any of the assets purchased with the Assistance to Firefighters Grant program funds. The fire station has a system in place to track their capital assets, however, upon review of the capital asset listing, it did not include the assets purchased with the grant noted above. Further, the capital asset listing did not include information such as the estimated useful life of the equipment nor did it include the funding source used to purchase the equipment. The amount of equipment purchases with the Assistance to Firefighters Grant funds, for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $815,546. Identification as a repeat finding, if applicable: No. Not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend the City update the capital asset listing at least annually to include all equipment and real property acquisitions and review for potential capital asset dispositions. The capital asset listing should include all required information to track capital asset acquisitions purchased with federal funding. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management agrees with the finding and has prepared a corrective action plan.

Equipment purchased with Airport Improvement funds requires management among other things to maintain property records, complete a physical inventory, safeguard against loss, and properly maintain the equipment. A property record or capital asset listing, which would include the following attributes, is to be maintained for assets purchased. • A description of the property. • A serial number or other identification number. • The source of funding for the property (including the federal award identification number (FAIN)). • Who holds title. • The acquisition date. • Cost of the property. • Percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired. • The location. • Use and condition of the property. Although the County purchased multiple land acquisitions using the Airport Improvement Program funds, which exceeded the County's capitalization threshold, the land acquisitions were not included on an inventory listing. Additionally, the County did not complete a capital asset inventory for airport assets every two years as required. INDIANA STATE BOARD OF ACCOUNTS 14 HENRY COUNTY SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (Continued) The lack of internal controls and noncompliance were systemic issues throughout the audit period.

Cause A proper system of internal controls was not designed by the management of the County. Embedded within a properly designed and implemented internal control system should be internal controls consisting of policies and procedures. Policies reflect the County's management of what should be done to effect internal controls, and procedures should consist of actions that would implement these policies. The County did not add the acquisitions to the property records as they were unaware that this should be added to property records. Effect Without the proper implementation of an effectively designed system of internal controls, including policies and procedures that provide segregation of duties and additional oversight as needed, the internal control system cannot be capable of effectively preventing, or detecting and correcting, material noncompliance. INDIANA STATE BOARD OF ACCOUNTS 15 HENRY COUNTY SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (Continued) As a result, not all required elements of the property record were documented for assets acquired with Airport Improvement funds. All assets were not added to the property records. Noncompliance with the provisions of federal regulations and the terms and conditions of the federal award could result in the loss of future federal funding to the County. Questioned Costs There were no questioned costs identified. Recommendation We recommended that management of the County design and implement a proper system of internal controls, including policies and procedures that would provide segregation of duties to ensure capital assets purchased with federal funds are included on a capital asset ledger and that a physical inventory is performed every two years.

Information on the Federal Program: Assistance Listing Number 81.086— Upper Midwest Inter‐Tribal EV Charging Community Network. Compliance Requirement: Equipment and Real Property Type of Finding: Noncompliance and material weakness in internal control over compliance. Criteria: 2 CFR 200.313 item (d): Property Standards. Property records must include a description of the property, a serial number or another identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), the title holder, the acquisition date, the cost of the property, the percentage of the Federal agency contribution towards the original purchase, the location, use and condition of the property, and any disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the property. The recipient and subrecipient are responsible for maintaining and updating property records when there is a change in the status of the property. Condition: For real property and equipment purchased with federal funding by Native Sun, adequate records and agreements were not kept. This included a lack of a listing as referenced above and a lack of agreement with beneficiaries of real property and equipment to ensure they remained in compliance with federal standards. Causes: The Organization was not retaining adequate records of equipment transferred to beneficiaries. Effect or Potential Effect: There could be equipment or real property purchased with federal funding that is not adequately accounted for or used outside of the bounds of the designated project use. There could also be equipment or real property unaccounted for or disposed of in a way that is not in compliance with federal standards. Large purchases of equipment including an electric bus and a bus garage lacked agreements that ensured that these items were accounted for in compliance with federal standards. Questioned Costs: None Context: The Organization did not have adequate controls in place to ensure that two of eight equipment and real property purchases tested were in compliance with federal guidelines. In addition, the organization was not able to provide an equipment list which included all required information at the beginning of the single audit process. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Organization maintain a detailed listing of all real property and equipment purchased with federal funding that adheres to the criteria noted in 2 CFR Part 200. We also recommend the Organization have signed agreements dictating the treatment of real property and equipment with beneficiaries of all items that ownership is transferred from the Organization to ensure compliance. Views of Responsible Officials: Agree.

Condition/Context During our audit of the Organization’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 federal award program, we noted the Organization did not conduct the physical inventory, as required. Cause Organization management had scheduled a property inventory for 2024 (no physical inventory was planned or completed in 2023). However, due to turnover of two key personnel charged with leading this work, they have no records of the results. They are completing one in 2025. Effect Management is not in compliance with the requirements of the federal award. Questioned Costs None Is the finding a repeat finding No Recommendations We recommend that Management perform the required physical inventory, as soon as possible Views of Responsible Officials / Planned Corrective Actions Management agrees with the finding.

These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in 'Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government' issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the 'Internal Control Integrated Framework', issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)...." 2 CFR 200.313(d)(1) states in part: "Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the federal award identification number), who holds title, the acquisition date, cost of the property, percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired, the location, use and condition of the property, and any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sales price of the property" Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the District to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the Equipment and Real Property Management compliance requirement. Cause: Management had not established a system of internal control that would have ensured proper procedures are followed to comply with the Equipment and Real Property Management compliance requirements. Effect: The failure to establish an effective internal control system enabled noncompliance to go undetected and the proper tracking of assets acquired with federal funds was not taking place. Noncompliance with the grant agreement and the Equipment and Real Property Management compliance requirement could have resulted in the loss of federal funds to the District. Questioned Costs: There were no questioned costs identified. Context: The District did not maintain an updated asset listing that reflects the construction in process balance related to the project funded with federal funds. There was approximately $25.0 million of disbursements from federal funds related to the project as of December 31, 2024. Identification as a repeat finding, if applicable: This is a repeat finding from the immediately prior audit report. The prior audit finding number was 2023-003. Recommendation: We recommend that the District’s management establish controls related to the grant agreement and the Equipment and Real Property compliance requirement to ensure that assets being purchased with federal funds are added to the capital asset listing and all required information is maintained on the capital asset listing. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management agrees with the finding and has prepared a corrective action plan.
Equipment Management Grantor: Various Cluster: Research & Development Award Names: Various Award Numbers: Various Assistance Listing Number: Various Award Year: Various Criteria 2 CFR 200.313 (d)(1-2) indicates that a physical inventory of federal equipment must be taken and the results reconciled with property records at least once every two years. Additionally, accurate property records must be maintained which include various identifying information, such as the location, use and condition of the property and any ultimate disposition data, including the date of disposal and sale of the property. Condition In testing the Company’s conformity with the compliance requirements for equipment management, we selected 25 pieces of equipment from the detailed listings provided to physically inspect. Additionally, in order to test the completeness of the detailed listings, we selected 25 pieces of equipment from the “floor” and traced these to the detailed listings provided. Through our testing, we noted the following: • Two pieces of equipment out of the 25 selections made from the detailed listings for physical inspection were incorrectly included in the listings. o One asset was moved to another institution with the associated principal investigator. The asset was not included in the list of equipment approved for the transfer with the departure of the principal investigator. The department continued to certify the asset was in service after the transfer of the asset. The acquisition price of the asset was $6,023.36. o The second asset was acquired in 2008 and sold in 2023, at the direction of the principal investigator, with the proceeds of the sale allocated to a non-federal internal research fund. The department continued to certify the asset was in service after the disposal of the asset. Cause For the first asset that was improperly included in the detailed listing, two pieces of the same equipment were purchased together, and one of the two pieces of equipment was retained, which caused the department to inadvertently certify that both assets were still in service. Further, the asset was not included on the list of equipment approved for transfer with the principal investigator’s departure from the Company. For the second asset, the principal investigator in charge of the equipment is in the process of leaving the Company, and the department is moving or disposing of his equipment. The equipment management team was waiting until the Investigator’s space was completely cleared before updating the inventory listings. Effect The process around the transfer and/or disposal of equipment when there is a transfer of an award, or a transfer of the principal investigator is not properly reflected in the Company’s inventory records. Questioned Costs There are no questioned costs. Under the Federal Grant and Cooperative Agreement Act, 31 U.S.C. 6306, NIH permits institutions to obtain title to equipment for support of basic or applied scientific research without further obligation to the Federal government. NIH has the right to require transfer of title to equipment with an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more to the Federal government within 120 of the completion of the award. The associated award ended prior to FY24, so the title transfer period has expired. Therefore, the equipment disposal did not result in questioned costs. Recommendation We recommend that the Company provide additional training to the principal investigators and other grant personnel focusing on the policies and procedures around federal equipment management. Specifically, the training should emphasize the importance of accuracy in the disposal request forms, including federal funding.

Equipment Management Grantor: Various Cluster: Research & Development Award Names: Various Award Numbers: Various Assistance Listing Number: Various Award Year: Various Criteria 2 CFR 200.313 (d)(1-2) indicates that a physical inventory of federal equipment must be taken and the results reconciled with property records at least once every two years. Additionally, accurate property records must be maintained which include various identifying information, such as the location, use and condition of the property and any ultimate disposition data, including the date of disposal and sale of the property. Condition In testing the Company’s conformity with the compliance requirements for equipment management, we selected 25 pieces of equipment from the detailed listings provided to physically inspect. Additionally, in order to test the completeness of the detailed listings, we selected 25 pieces of equipment from the “floor” and traced these to the detailed listings provided. Through our testing, we noted the following: • Two pieces of equipment out of the 25 selections made from the detailed listings for physical inspection were incorrectly included in the listings. o One asset was moved to another institution with the associated principal investigator. The asset was not included in the list of equipment approved for the transfer with the departure of the principal investigator. The department continued to certify the asset was in service after the transfer of the asset. The acquisition price of the asset was $6,023.36. o The second asset was acquired in 2008 and sold in 2023, at the direction of the principal investigator, with the proceeds of the sale allocated to a non-federal internal research fund. The department continued to certify the asset was in service after the disposal of the asset. Cause For the first asset that was improperly included in the detailed listing, two pieces of the same equipment were purchased together, and one of the two pieces of equipment was retained, which caused the department to inadvertently certify that both assets were still in service. Further, the asset was not included on the list of equipment approved for transfer with the principal investigator’s departure from the Company. For the second asset, the principal investigator in charge of the equipment is in the process of leaving the Company, and the department is moving or disposing of his equipment. The equipment management team was waiting until the Investigator’s space was completely cleared before updating the inventory listings. Effect The process around the transfer and/or disposal of equipment when there is a transfer of an award, or a transfer of the principal investigator is not properly reflected in the Company’s inventory records. Questioned Costs There are no questioned costs. Under the Federal Grant and Cooperative Agreement Act, 31 U.S.C. 6306, NIH permits institutions to obtain title to equipment for support of basic or applied scientific research without further obligation to the Federal government. NIH has the right to require transfer of title to equipment with an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more to the Federal government within 120 of the completion of the award. The associated award ended prior to FY24, so the title transfer period has expired. Therefore, the equipment disposal did not result in questioned costs. Recommendation We recommend that the Company provide additional training to the principal investigators and other grant personnel focusing on the policies and procedures around federal equipment management. Specifically, the training should emphasize the importance of accuracy in the disposal request forms, including federal funding. The training should also focus on the importance of timely updates to the equipment inventory listing to ensure the listing is complete and accurate.

Finding 2024-011 – Equipment Management (Significant Deficiency and Noncompliance) Information on the Federal Program: U.S. Department of Education, Higher Education- Institutional Aid, Assistance Listing No. 84.031 Criteria: 2 CFR Section 200.313(d)(2) establishes the requirement that a physical inventory of property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least every 2 years. Condition: Documentation of a physical inventory performed college-wide was not available. Cause: The College did not perform a physical inventory of assets purchased with federal funds in the last 2 years. Effect: The College did not have appropriate documentation that a physical inventory was performed. Questioned Costs: None Recommendation: We recommend the College strengthen its policies and procedures over equipment management to ensure a physical inventory is performed every 2 years, at a minimum. Views of Responsible Officials: See Management’s View and Corrective Action Plan included at the end of the report.
2024-004 Internal Controls over Compliance and Compliance with Equipment and Real Property Management (Significant Deficiency) Information on the Federal Program: U.S. Department of Agriculture Assistance Listing Number: 10.606 Assistance Listing Name: Food for Progress Grant Award Number: Direct Award Number Award Period FCC-521-2016/012-00 September 29, 2016 through September 30, 2025 Criteria or Specific Requirement: Auditee requirements contained in Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (2 CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, Subpart D ‐ Post Federal Award Requirements, Section 200.303 ‐ Internal Controls, requires the auditee to establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non‐Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with a framework such as the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the COSO. Also, a physical inventory of property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least once every two years (2 CFR section 200.313(d)(2)). Condition: During our testing of the equipment and real property management compliance requirements, we noted that there is no formally documented physical count of property acquired using federal funds in 2024 specific to Haiti. Questioned Costs: There are no known or likely questioned costs. Context: This is a condition based on testing of CRS’s compliance with specified requirements. The prevalence of the finding is detailed in the condition section above. The samples were selected using a non-statistical method. Cause: CRS country office personnel did not adhere to CRS’s documented policies and procedures for ensuring proper compliance with monitoring of property acquired using federal funds. Effect: Failure to conduct physical inventory of property could lead to misappropriation of assets and noncompliance with Federal regulations resulting in return of Federal awards received. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: We recommend that management implement policies, procedures and controls that will ensure the physical counts of property are conducted, that evidence of a count is formally documented and an authorized individual formally approves the result of the count, and the related reconciliation of property records, in order to adhere to Federal regulations related to equipment management and its related maintenance. Views of Responsible Officials: CRS management agrees with the finding and recommendations and will enhance processes surrounding property reconciliation.
