Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions Finding Reference: 2023-001 Responsible Individual: Melissa Mason Operator Foundation received a pass-through, subgrant extension from a partner organization under 19.22 Regional Democracy Program during the calendar year 2023. The subgrant paperwork Operator received from the partner did not include an Audit Certification form. The form was later provided and requested by the pass through entity on March 18, 2024, and Operator provided the form on the same day that the email request was received. However, passthrough recipients are required to submit a completed Audit Certification Form within 30 days of the end of each subrecipient fiscal year. Operator’s controls did not realize that the form was missing from the provided award package. Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Operator Foundation will strengthen the internal controls as it relates to submitting required reports to its granting agencies by establishing policies and procedures to ensure that reporting information is submitted timely. Operator will review each grant at inception and list out requirements related to reporting and deadlines. Operator Foundation will ensure that all reporting requirements are put on the organizational tracking system including calendars and that reminders are set to ensure timely submission. Operator will communicate any missing requirements in award packages to the funder for the purpose of strengthening compliance of all responsible parties receiving federal funds. Anticipated Completion date: 10/31/2024
