FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND

RECOMMENDATIONS

           

      The Sheridan Correctional Center was closed in October 2002.  It reopened in January 2004 as a specialized drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.  There were no material findings of noncompliance disclosed during our examination. We commend the Center for maintaining an effective system of internal controls.

 

AUDITORS’ OPINION

 

      We conducted a compliance attestation examination of the Center as required by the Illinois State Auditing Act.  This was a limited scope compliance examination.  Financial information for the Center for the six months ended June 30, 2004 will be presented in the Department of Corrections – General Office audit report, which includes financial statements for the entire Department.  Information for the close-out period, July 1, 2002 through October 15, 2002, was included in the scope of the FY 2003 audit of the Department’s General Office.
