09/25/2019	Department of Homeland Security	FEMA Should Disallow $1.1 Million in Grant Funds Awarded to Richland County, North Dakota	Disaster Recovery Report	Richland County, ND United States	View Report
					View Report
Submitting OIG Department of Homeland Security OIG Report Description Richland County did not always properly account for and expend Federal funds according to Federal regulations and FEMA guidelines. FEMA did not hold North Dakota accountable for fulfilling its grant management responsibilities, and North Dakota did not adequately manage the FEMA grant by monitoring the County to ensure it complied with applicable regulations and guidelines. The County failed to follow all Federal procurement regulations when awarding about $1.9 million in disaster-related contracts. We recommended that FEMA disallow $1,146,921 in ineligible contract costs and direct North Dakota to work with the County to verify that the County complies with all Federal grant requirements and establishes effective accounting systems. FEMA concurred with our three recommendations for improving County compliance in managing future Federal grants.

09/25/2019	Department of Homeland Security	The State of Washington's Oversight of FEMA's Public Assistance Grant Program for Fiscal Years 2015-2017 Was Generally Effective	Disaster Recovery Report	WA United States	View Report

Submitting OIG Department of Homeland Security OIG Report Description In two of the four areas – training and collaboration – Washington’s Emergency Management Division (EMD) and FEMA complied with applicable policies, procedures, and regulations. In the third functional area – project execution, monitoring and oversight – we did not identify any significant deficiencies. We found, however, EMD lacked position-specific guidance for all personnel with programmatic responsibilities. In the last functional area – project and grant closeout – neither EMD nor its subrecipients submitted timely project closeout requests. In addition, FEMA did not enforce compliance with its own guidance for processing closeouts. We recommended FEMA ensure EMD complies with its State Administrative Plan by issuing and regularly updating desk manuals. In addition, we recommended FEMA coordinate with EMD to initiate closeout on behalf of subrecipients for all open, large projects whose period of performance end dates exceed the 90-day regulatory requirement, and submit closeout requests to FEMA for projects exceeding the 180-day requirement. We made five recommendations to strengthen EMD’s internal controls to improve its oversight of FEMA’s Public Assistance grant program. FEMA concurred with all five of our recommendations.
