Finding 1: AZDE did not issue grant award documentation to subrecipients in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Guidance.
Discussion: State agencies are required to include specific information in the grant award notifications issued to AEFLA subrecipients. AZDE provided each AEFLA subrecipient with a letter of the award notification and contract, which included the terms and conditions of receiving federal funds. However, AZDE did not include all elements required by the Uniform Guidance. Specifically, the AEFLA award letter and contract did not identify if the award is a research and development grant or contract. AZDE must include all the requirements of a pass-through entity with their grant documents for PY 2023 continuation awards and subsequent AEFLA awards.
