SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY

County of Lake does currently have procedures in place to verify vendors are not suspended or debarred prior to entering into a transaction with the entity. However, County of Lake was not able to provide evidence that these procedures were performed for the covered transactions related to this grant. Questioned Costs: None. Context: The finding was noted in one of the six transactions tested. However, the transactions were not with entities that are suspended or debarred. Cause: Controls are not consistently in place to ensure that required suspension and debarment clauses are included when the vendor is working with multiple governmental agencies and executing state programs. Effect: There is a potential County of Lake could contract with a debarred or suspended entity if the verification is not performed. Recommendation: We recommend County of Lake perform suspension and debarment procedures on all vendors with which it plans to enter into a covered transaction and maintain the documentation for evidence of compliance. County of Lake can do this by (a) checking sam.gov exclusions, or (b) collecting a certification from the entity, or (c) adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that entity. View of Responsible Officials: County of Lake concurs with the recommendation.

Federal Agency: U.S. Department of the Agriculture Federal Program Title: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Assistance Listing Number: 10.561 Pass-Through Agencies: State Department of Social Services and State Department of Health Pass-Through Entity Identifying Numbers: CA Department of Public Health 15-10426, 23-10319, 29 - 10326 Award Period: July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025 Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Criteria or Specific Requirement: 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Award requires compliance with the provisions of procurement, suspension, and debarment. Non-federal entities are prohibited from contracting with or making subawards under covered transactions to parties that are suspended or debarred. When a non-Federal entity enters into a covered transaction with an entity, the non-Federal entity must verify that the entity is not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. The County should have internal controls designed to ensure compliance with these provisions. Condition: County of Lake does currently have procedures in place to verify vendors are not suspended or debarred prior to entering into a transaction with the entity. However, County of Lake was not able to provide evidence that these procedures were performed for the covered transactions related to this grant. Questioned Costs: None.
