We did not test the Corporation’s internal controls or compliance with the policies and procedures provided in this report. Information on whether the Corporation followed the appropriate standards was based on OIG open recommendations and the Corporation’s Plan of Actions and Milestones.Sensitive information contained in the evaluation report has been redacted.
