View of Responsible Officials The Agency had two vacant positions in the Finance Department, one being the Senior Finance Director position for eight months.

Corrective Action Plan

Due to lack of personnel and an incomplete fiscal year 2024 audit by March 31, 2025, NRVCS did not file timely with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. The fiscal year 2025 financial audit was completed on December 3, 2025, and the Single Audit portion was completed on February 26, 2026. NRVCS management will collaborate with Brown Edwards to ensure proper steps are taken in submitting the filing with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse on or before March 31, 2026, and current and future staff will be aware of this deadline for subsequent years going forward.
