Section 434.6  Exit

exit conference and an administrative hearing of the Department's findings and
recommendations.  The requirements for requesting a review of the findings and
recommendations are as follows:
a)         After receipt of the draft report or desk review report, the
entity may request an exit conference.  The request for an exit conference must
be received within 15 business days after receipt of the draft report or desk
review report.  The request must be sent to the Department's Office of Financial
Review and must explain which findings and recommendations the entity does not
understand or does not agree with.
1)         The exit conference shall be scheduled within 15 business days
after the request and shall be a general discussion between the agency
representatives and the auditors who performed the fieldwork or desk review.
Proposed responses to the draft report or desk review may be presented at the
time of the discussion.
2)         When an exit conference is held, the final report shall
contain a brief narrative regarding the date that the conference was held; the
names of the persons attending; the topics discussed; and any mutually agreed
changes to the draft or report that were decided upon during the exit
conference.
b)         If the entity disagrees with the audit findings, it may
request an administrative hearing regarding the findings and recommendations.
A request for an administrative hearing must be received in writing within 15
business days after the conclusion of the exit conference and shall be directed
to the administrator of the Administrative Hearings Unit with a copy forwarded
to the Office of Financial Review.  A request for an administrative hearing
