Wage Rate Requirements Known Questioned Costs $1,503,981 The school department did not comply with the Davis-Bacon Act for a renovation project at Griffith Elementary School that was partially funded by a federal Education Stabilization Fund Grant, (FAL No. 84.425D, ESSER II). Expenditures for roofing and HVAC improvements on this project were reimbursed with federal grant funds totaling $1,503,981 during the year ended June 30, 2021. Federal regulations require contractors and subcontractors to pay prevailing wages on any construction contract that exceeds $2,000 and is financed either wholly or partially by federal funds. As a result of the failure to comply with the Davis-Bacon Act, we are questioning the allowability of using the grant funds for the project. This finding was a result of a lack of management?s understanding concerning the usage of the grant funds for construction projects.
