How much of human life is lost in waiting.

Dear Mr. Zandberg,

I am the project manager for Evergreen Solutions’ part of the Yellow Book Audit of the ten largest school districts in Washington State. We at Evergreen are under contract to Cotton & Co., a CPA firm from Alexandria, VA. Cotton & Co. is under contract to the State Auditor’s Office in Washington State for this work.

At the present time, Cotton & Company and Evergreen Solutions are preparing a draft report for submission to the State Auditor’s Office, covering all ten districts. The SAO, after its review, will then conduct individual reviews of the applicable draft findings with each school district. A Final Report covering all ten districts will be prepared once all of this work has been accomplished. It is my understanding that only after a Final Report has been officially approved by the SAO for publication, it will become available to the general public. I know that no one is permitted to release any information, in whole or in part, until such time.

So the State Auditor doesn't do the audits; they are contracted out. Well, at least the money is only going as far as Virginia, not India or China.

They're too busy over there making our childrens lead based paint lunch boxes, to do that work.

Is this the yearly State Audit, or is this the Special Performance Audit from last fall done over the internet on the top ten School Districts in Washington State? Please clarify.

The latter.

An audit over the internet? Isn't that sorta like researching through a database when only a limited amount of information is placed in the database?
