Facilities, Operations, and Maintenance, and Special Education Cluster
Federal Assistance #: 15.042, 15.046, 15.047, and 84.027
Federal Agency: U.S. Department of the Interior and U.S. Department of Education
Grantor Number: N/A
Questioned Costs: N/A
Type of Finding: Noncompliance
Compliance Requirement: L. Reporting
Condition: The School did not submit their audit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, timely. The audit was
submitted May 28, 2024, which was 58 days past the March 31, 2024 deadline.
Criteria: 2 CFR § 200.512(a) provides, in part: "The audit must be completed and the data collection form ... must
be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s), or nine months after the
end of the audit period." 2 CFR § 200.520 provides, in part: "That to qualify as a low-risk auditee and be eligible
for reduced audit coverage the following condition must be met: Single audits were performed on an annual basis
in accordance with the provisions of this Subpart, including submitting the data collection form and the reporting
package to the FAC within the timeframe specified in § 200.512."
Cause: Management turnover
Effect: Not making all audit documentation available in a timely manner resulted in the audit and data collection
form submissions to be late and, therefore, not available to the public within the required timeframe. This late
submission also excludes the School from qualifying as a low-risk auditee.
Recommendation: The School should implement procedures to ensure that all audit documentation is available
for auditing in a timely manner and the audit report is completed and submitted within the appropriate timeframe.
Repeat Finding: Same as prior year finding 2022-03.
