State Single Audit. For purposes of this paragraph, the word "Grantee" shall be deemed to mean "nonstate entity," as that term is defined in Section 4-230 of the Connecticut General Statutes. The Grantee shall provide for an annual financial audit acceptable to the Grantor for any expenditure of state-awarded funds made by the Grantee. Such audit shall include management letters and audit recommendations. The State Auditors of Public Accounts shall have access to all records and accounts for the fiscal year(s) in which the award was made. The Grantee will comply with federal and state single audit standards as applicable. If the Grantee meets the requirements of the State Single Audit Act, C.G.S. §§ 4-230 through 4-236, as amended, the Grantee’s independent auditor is required to submit a State Single Audit Report to Grantor. C.G.S. § 4-231 requires those non-state entities which expended a total amount of State Financial Assistance equal to or in excess of $300,000 in any fiscal year to have either a single audit or a program-specific audit conducted for such fiscal year. A program- specific audit may be conducted if the Grantee received State Financial Assistance from Grantor for this Agreement and it is the only State Financial Assistance that the Grantee has expended during its fiscal year. The State Single Audit Report or Program-Specific Audit Report, including the management letter and corrective action plan, if applicable, should be uploaded by the Grantee’s independent auditor to the State of Connecticut Office of Policy and Management’s Electronic Audit Reporting System (EARS) website no later than six months after the end of the audit period (Web address: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx.xx.xxx/Auditing/Home.aspx) and a copy shall be given to the Grantor agency.
