Section 38041
Status: in_force

(a)  Annually, there shall be a single independent financial and compliance audit of nonprofit organizations that contract with the state under a direct service contract. Any such audit shall include an evaluation of the accounting and control systems of the direct service contractor and of the activities by the contractor to comply with the financial requirements of direct service contracts received by the contractor from the state agency. Audits carried out pursuant to this section shall be audits of the contractor, rather than audits of individual contracts or programs. In the case of any contractor that receives less than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) per year from any state agency, the audit required by this section shall be conducted biennially, unless there is evidence of fraud or other violation of state law in connection with the direct service contract. The cost of such audit may be included in direct service contracts up to the proportionate amount that the contract represents of the contractor’s total revenue.

(b)  A nonprofit organization shall have responsibility for financial and compliance audits of the nonprofit organization and any subcontractors. The audits shall be made by independent auditors in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The audit shall be completed by the 15th day of the fifth month following the end of the contractor’s fiscal year.

(c)  (1)  Nothing in this chapter limits the authority of state agencies to make audits of direct service contracts; provided, however, that if independent audits arranged for by direct service contractors meet generally accepted auditing standards state agencies shall rely on those audits and any additional audit work shall build upon the work already done.

(2)  The state is responsible for conducting, or contracting for the conduct of, contract performance audits which are not financial and compliance audits.

(3)  Nothing in this chapter limits the state’s responsibility or authority to enforce state law or regulations, procedures, or reporting requirements arising pursuant thereto.

(a)  The Legislature hereby finds and declares that, because sanitary landfill sites are very difficult to obtain, these valuable sites should be reserved for high-priority waste such as garbage and low-volume rubbish, and that the disposal, by open outdoor fires of high-volume wood waste will help prolong the life of such landfill sites.

(b)  Therefore, the state board shall conduct studies of alternative methods of disposing of wood waste from trees, vines, or bushes, other than by open outdoor fires.
