Specifically, our objective was to determine whether the State has the capacity to account for Recovery Act funding and the controls to ensure that its recipients expend those funds for eligible program activities. Based on our review, the State has the capacity and management controls to account for Recovery Act funding and ensure that its recipients spend the funds for eligible program activities within the allotted time.
