Part X : FIN48 Footnote	The Foundation is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. US GAAP requires the Foundation to evaluate tax positions taken by the Foundation and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Foundation has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Foundation has analyzed the tax positions taken and has concluded that as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there are no significant uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

Form And Line Reference	Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	Pre-Award Often, a federal agency funding a project (or other funder), wants to know at the beginning of the project about the planned use of subrecipients. It is crucial that expenditures for subrecipients are classified correctly in budgets and project plans and are approved by the funder before work begins, and that the risk of the subrecipient's noncompliance with federal rules and grant conditions be evaluated. All potential subrecipients must also be verified against the Governments Excluded Parties List (EPL) (www.sam.gov; see also http://exclusions.oig.hhs.gov/Default.aspx). Procurement staff is to compare the names of each subrecipient against the EPL and print out any results of the search. Evidence of the search of the EPL must be maintained in the project files. If the subrecipient shows a record of suspension or debarment in the EPL, Project Staff must not proceed with that subrecipient and must alert the Compliance department. WGBH is prohibited from using any supplier/service provider on the EPL, and any work then in progress with a subrecipient on the EPL must be terminated immediately.Post-Contract Monitoring Once the contract has been signed and work has commenced, WGBH and the project team are responsible for monitoring the performance of the subrecipient. Subrecipient monitoring occurs in two forms:Performance Monitoring This involves the project team ensuring that the subrecipient is meeting the performance requirements of the contract and award, including timeliness, scope and results. This monitoring is generally performed by the project team and can be accomplished through meetings, conversations or other methods. Site visits are another monitoring procedure to evaluate the subrecipients compliance with the terms of the project/award and the appropriateness of the subrecipients administration of the project. All performance monitoring activities should be documented in the project files. If issues are identified, the related follow-up or corrective action taken should also be documented in the project file.Compliance Monitoring WGBH is also responsible for monitoring the subrecipients compliance with applicable laws and regulations. This can be accomplished in multiple ways. Annually, WGBH will send a questionnaire to all known subrecipients requesting a copy of their most recent Single Audit report and other information. Responses will be sent back to WGBHs Compliance department, which will review the results and follow up on any findings identified. All responses will be verified against the U.S. Federal Audit Clearinghouse website. If issues are identified that impact a particular project, that project team will be notified. Compliance department will then work with the subrecipient and the project to resolve the issues noted. A final determination on the issue (including references, if applicable) will be provided to the subrecipient within six months of issue identification and any corrective action required of the subrecipients must be completed as soon as possible.
