2022-001: Considered a significant deficiency in internal control/immaterial non-compliance Program: ALN 93.959 Block Grants for Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse (Community Grant) Criteria: As detailed by 2 CFR 200.402, the total cost of a Federal award is the sum of the allowable direct and allocable indirect costs less any applicable credits. Condition: During testing of amounts charged to the grants it was noted that provider stabilization payments were charged to Community Grant but were not authorized by the grant. Cause/Effect: This condition appears to be the result of a misunderstanding of costs allowed under this grant. These costs were not in compliance with 2 CFR 200.402. Questioned Cost: $199,598. Recommendation: We recommend that the Entity review all grant agreements to gain a thorough understanding of allowable costs and then establish/modify internal controls to assure that only allowable costs are charged to the grant. View of Responsible Official: Management is in agreement with this recommendation
