Section 20 AAC 40.365 - Audit requirements(a) For an audit conducted by the authority, the grantee and any subcontractor of the grantee shall provide the auditor with reasonable access to the books, documents, papers, and records of the grantee or subcontractor. The auditor is a representative of the authority.(b) When an audit report prepared under (a) of this section questions a cost or financial transaction incurred or recorded by the grantee or subcontractor, the grantee shall, within 30 calendar days after receiving written notice of the audit report, submit to the authority a response to the questions in the report. If the grantee fails to respond to the audit report or if the authority determines that the response does not adequately explain or justify a questioned cost or transaction, the authority may require the grantee to refund to the authority the amount of grant money used to pay the questioned cost or to otherwise correct a questioned transaction. The grantee shall refund the amount in accordance with procedures specified by the authority.(c) In addition to an audit conducted under (a) of this section and unless otherwise provided in the grant, a grantee and each subcontractor of the grantee under 20 AAC 40.330, except a subcontractor who is an individual, shall have a fiscal audit of the grantee's or subcontractor's operations, as applicable, under the grant program performed at least once every two years. However, the authority may accept a state or federal audit as a substitute for an audit required by this subsection.Eff. 10/24/2004, Register 172Authority:AS 37.14.045
