Our Objective(s)To evaluate single audit reports uploaded to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse between July 1, 2024 and September 30, 2024, and to identify findings that affect directly awarded Department of Transportation (DOT) programs.
Why This AuditOIG performs oversight of independent, non-Federal auditors single audit reports. Between 200 and 300 single audit reports are issued annually that include findings related to programs directly funded by DOT. We issue memoranda that summarize the single audit reports significant findings and recommendations that require priority action by DOT. When warranted, we also recommend that DOT recover funds that were inappropriately expended by non-Federal entities.
What We FoundAuditors reported 31 incidents of significant noncompliance with Federal guidelines related to 13 grantees that require prompt actions from DOTs Operating Administrations.
Of 31 findings, 13 were repeat findings related to 6 grantees.
Auditors identified questioned costs totaling $338,801 for three grantees.
Of this amount, $214,478 was related to Capital Area Transit System, Baton Rouge, LA.
We identified a finding that caused an adverse opinion for the City of Lawrence, Lawrence, KS.
We identified nonmonetary repeat findings that caused qualified opinions for three entities.
RecommendationsWe made two recommendations to OST to resolve and close the findings and recover questioned costs, if applicable
Congress provided $5.5 billion for the Emergency Assistance to Nonpublic Schools (EANS) program. The purpose of the EANS programs, authorized under the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA) and American Rescue Plan (ARP), is to provide services or assistance to eligible nonpublic schools to address educational disruptions caused by the COVID-19 emergency. Our audit sought to determine whether the Tennessee Department of Education (Tennessee) designed and implemented (1) application processes that adequately assessed nonpublic schools’ eligibility for EANS-funded services or assistance and complied with other applicable requirements and (2) oversight processes to ensure that EANS-funded services or assistance were used for allowable purposes. We found that Tennessee designed and implemented application processes that adequately assessed nonpublic schools’ eligibility for EANS-funded services or assistance and complied with other applicable requirements despite not having written procedures. However, we identified several weaknesses in Tennessee’s oversight of its EANS programs that could be improved: Tennessee did not ensure that drawdowns of CRRSA EANS funds were always supported by CRRSA EANS expenditures; Tennessee had not fully implemented policies and procedures for maintaining a record of assets purchased with EANS funds; and Tennessee did not obtain prior approval for certain EANS expenditures.
