About This Audit
The Independent Auditor’s Report examines the Township of Orwell’s Liquid Fuels Tax Fund forms for 2021-2023, assessing compliance with criteria from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s Publication 9. Conducted per attestation standards, this examination evaluated the Forms MS-965 With Adjustments. The audit did not aim to express opinions on internal controls but did assess and found no material weaknesses or deficiencies. Additionally, no instances of noncompliance were reported. The report focuses on spending compliance of the funds under relevant laws, ensuring that allocations based on road mileage and population, used for highways, streets, and bridges, abide by established criteria. The report also mandates that various reports be submitted and ensures the resolution of any discrepancies to continue funding allocations. Timothy L. DeFoor, Auditor General, extends gratitude for cooperation from the Township of Orwell during the examination.
