finding · F1

Lack of up-to-date required information could lead to the public’s inability to contact Reclamation District personnel.

Audit: Addressed

Response says

Disagrees with the asserted duty, missing-contact characterization, personnel terminology and alleged lack of currency.

Audit analysis

The four disputed components are specifically explained through directory locations, statutes, district responsibilities and described outreach. The audit does not resolve the competing interpretation.
