Going forward our focus will be to work with the auditor and owner to get the audits finalized earlier so adequate time is left for the deposits to be made. In instances where the final is not going to be issued and allow enough time, the deposit will be made based on the reviewed draft. C. Status of Corrective Action on Prior Findings No prior findings.
