Audit - The Anchor of IFTA

IFTA Audit Committee

November 2006 Fall is here and it will not be long before the 2007 IFTA/IRP Audit Workshop convenes. The Workshop is scheduled to open on Fri-day, January 5 and conclude on Sunday, January. For those wanting a bit more from the Workshop, we are again offering two optional sessions on Thursday, January 4. Also on Monday, January 8, the IFTA Audit Committee, the IRP Audit Committee, and the IFTA Industry Advisory Committee will be holding separate committee meetings.

The Workshop provides an excellent opportunity to discuss audit issues with representatives from other jurisdictions and industry. The wealth of knowledge that is available at this Workshop cannot be found at any other meeting. The 2007 Workshop’s agenda is packed with many interesting topics. As always, both the general session topics and the breakout sessions provide the participants with an opportunity to ask questions or raise issues. Thursday we will be presenting concurrent sessions for auditors and for managers. The auditors’ session will be geared toward new auditors or auditors who are new to IFTA and or IRP auditing. The managers’ session will cover a number of topics that managers encounter in addressing the requirements of the IFTA and the IRP.

On Friday morning, Sergeant Jeffery Millen of the Tempe Police Department will be giving a presentation on auditor safety. This is a very important topic as we seek to carry out our work assignments in an ever increasing violent society. On Friday afternoon, our friends from Industry will be giving a presentation on the history of the IRP and the IFTA. On Saturday the Workshop will be dedicated to four breakout sessions that will run concur-rently throughout the day. The breakout top-ics are as follows: ο Industry MPG/KPL and Records ο Audit Reports ο Bulk Fuel, and Ignoring Distance and Credit Adjustments ο Audit Standards On Sunday the general session reconvenes. The morning will be devoted to several timely topics. The afternoon will begin with a Town Hall meeting; this was one of the highlights of the 2006 Workshop. For more information on the Workshop, please download the registration packet from the IFTA web site. We look forward to seeing you at the Workshop.

NOTES FROM THE BOARD

The IFTA, Inc. Board of Trustees (Board) held its Fourth Quarter 2006 Board Meeting on October 20 - 21. The meeting was held at the IFTA, Inc. offices in Chandler, Arizona. Eight Board members were present. Board member-elect, Ms. Sonia Sanders (KY), also attended the two-day Board Meeting. Ms. Donna Burch (Ryder Transportation Services), IFTA Industry Advisory Committee (IAC) Chair, and Mr. Robert Pitcher, American Trucking Associations (ATA), were also present. Board member Ms. Kim Craig (ON) was unable to attend this meeting, but participated by teleconference on Saturday.

Minutes from the Second Quarter 2006 Board Meeting were approved as amended. The Board also approved the minutes, as amended, for the Board Actions by Email during the second and third quarters of 2006. The minutes

from an August 2006 teleconference were approved as written.

Mr. Jason DeGraf, IFTA, Inc. Information Systems Administrator, presented the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse update. There are forty (40) member jurisdictions and more than 500 registered users accessing the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse. Since the deadline for data compliance, five members continue to work towards the requirement of using standardized demographic and transmittal data. Four new jurisdictions are in the testing stages. These jurisdictions are Oregon, Missouri, North Dakota, and Saskatchewan.

The demographic page of the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse has recently been updated to include active carriers with a revoked status. There are approximately 100 carriers listed. Additionally, a new jurisdiction packet has been posted to the IFTA, Inc. website. The User Manuals and Technical Specifications can now be accessed from the secure web pages.

Board member Mr. Garry Hinkley (ME) and Chair of the IFTA Clearinghouse Advisory Committee (CAC), offered this committee’s report. The CAC continues to hold monthly teleconferences. Several jurisdictions have requested extensions regarding the deadline for coming into compliance with the paperless transmittal field definitions. The Board has ratified the committee’s recommendation to provide extensions to members that have experienced difficulty in meeting the October 1 deadline. The extensions allow for jurisdictions to come into compliance by the expiration date of their current access agreement. Any jurisdiction not in compliance by this date will not be allowed to renew their agreement.

The CAC is reviewing the current Clearinghouse Access Agreement. It is their intention to provide an amended agreement clarifying that participating members must fully comply with all Clearinghouse requirements, including paperless transmittals and funds netting once it has been developed. The revised agreement is anticipated before the spring renewal period.

The US Patriot Act continues to be a concern for the Canadian jurisdictions considering the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse. There is concern that, under this act, IFTA, Inc. would be compelled to release licensee information without the licensees knowledge. This is inhibiting some provinces from joining the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse.

The committee recommended that the Clearinghouse Best Practices Guide be incorporated into the Agreement Procedures Committee (APC) Best Practices Guide. This was based on duplicative recommendations that appear in the APC Best Practices Guide.

IFTA, Inc. Executive Director, Ms. Lonette Turner, provided an update on the funds netting project for the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse. Until there is one hundred percent compliance with the CH requirements, the project cannot advance. Discussions are continuing with the banking industry and a risk analysis has been completed and is being reviewed. Thirty-five jurisdictions responded to the funds netting survey. Only four jurisdictions reported having issues or concerns with funds netting, but feel that the issues might not be of major concern. Failure to fund is one concern of the project. IFTA, Inc. will meet with the banking officials following the Board Meeting.

Mr. Tom King, IFTA, Inc. Webmaster, provided a demonstration of the IFTA, Inc. website. Improvements and updates to the website continue to make the site more user friendly. The Voting Booth web pages are ready for use by the IFTA Commissioners. Ballot comments can now be sorted by either jurisdiction or support. Currently, only the IFTA Audit Committee has a committee only Message Board. It is the intention of IFTA, Inc. to create Message Boards for each IFTA Standing Committee with access by a special login.

Changes to the IFTA tax rate matrices were also shown. A new tax rate matrix is being compiled that would support an unlimited fuels listing.

IFTA, Inc. Events Coordinator, Mrs. Tammy Trinker, reported that there was an increase in attendance at a majority of the meetings held in 2006. Hotel proposals have also been signed for the 2008 meetings including the Quarterly Board Meetings, IFTA / IRP Audit Workshop, and IFTA Managers’ and Law Enforcement Seminar. The 2009 IFTA / IRP Audit Workshop continues to be under negotiation while awaiting recommendations from the IFTA and IRP Audit Committees as to the scheduling and location for this meeting.

Registration fees for the 2007 IFTA Attorneys’ Section Meeting were reviewed and approved by the Board. The registration fees for this coming meeting will be $250 for members and $310 for general and private sector industry representatives. The 2007 IFTA Attorneys’ Section Meeting will be May 11 - 12 at the Westin hotel in Indianapolis, IN.

Mrs. Debora Meise, IFTA, Inc. Program Director, reported that of the fifteen jurisdictions reviewed in 2005, nine jurisdictions are under either follow-up or reassessment. Two reviews remain to be conducted in 2006.

Results of the combined IFTA / IRP reviews were discussed. Thirty jurisdictions responded in favor of combined Program Compliance Reviews (PCR) while seventeen did not and ten members would like combined audit reviews only. The test jurisdiction for an IFTA / IRP Combined Review was Minnesota. This review was held in July 2006. Although there were some hurdles, the review was an overall success. Some issues for membership to consider for future combined reviews include the 5-year review cycle of IRP vs. the 4-year review cycle of IFTA. Regional reviews vs. implementation year reviews is another issue to be addressed. Additionally, actual combined reviews vs. separate but simultaneous reviews should also be considered.

Wyoming and Oregon have volunteered to be the second test jurisdictions for a IFTA / IRP Combined Review in 2007. IFTA, Inc. and IRP, Inc. will continue discussions regarding the pursuit of a combined review in 2007 with scheduling the review in advance of the IFTA Annual Business Meeting.

Ms. Rena Hussey (VA), Program Compliance Review Committee (PCRC) Board Liaison, offered this report. The committee continues to hold every-other-month conference calls. There have been two recent resignations from the committee and the PCRC continues to seek replacements for both Ms. Sanders and Mr. Joe Randall (ID). The committee charter will also be reviewed in regards to term limits for members. A revised charter is anticipated by January 2007. The committee supports IFTA Full Track Ballot Proposal #12-2006 as the ballot will assist in the committee’s efforts of achieving uniformity in the PCR process.

Mr. Kevin Park (UT), Board Liaison, offered the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC) report. The committee has developed and approved the new Complaint Content Guidelines, Complaint Content Review, Answer Content Guidelines and Answer Timeliness and Content Review forms. The committee will have quarterly conference call meetings to keep in contact with each other and any issues that develop until a dispute is filed. Should a dispute be filed, the committee will increase their communications as necessary.

Ms. Burch provided the IAC report. The last meeting of the IAC was in July when Mr. Mahlon Gragen (ATC Leasing) was appointed to the IAC Steering Committee. Comments were heard regarding the IAC position on the IFTA ballot proposals for 2006. Industry opposes IFTA Preliminary Ballot Proposals (PBP) 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8. The committee posted their comments to the IFTA, Inc. website for the second comment period.

Discussion was also had regarding the possible closed session presentation during the January 2007 IFTA / IRP Audit Workshop. The IAC has voiced opposition due to confidentiality issues on behalf of the taxpayers. The Board explained that a teleconference has been scheduled with representatives from both the IFTA and IRP Boards as well as the IFTA and IRP Audit Committees. It is their hope that the agenda topic will be thoroughly discussed and a decision made as to whether the topic should continue as scheduled or be dropped from the agenda for this particular workshop. Further, the Board clarified that they would support the decision of the IFTA Audit Committee to either hold or withdraw the closed session agenda topic.

Board Liaison Ms. Craig provided the Agreement Procedures Committee (APC) report via teleconference. The APC Best Practices Guide has been drafted and forwarded to the Board Liaisons. The liaisons will review the document further for a more in-depth discussion during the January 2007 Board Meeting. Additionally, the Annual Report and Exemption Database have been reviewed by the committee and is currently being reviewed by the liaisons.

Mr. Julian Fitzgerald, Board Liaison to the Law Enforcement Committee (LEC), provided this report. The LEC is discussing possible leadership changes with the announcement of Lt. John Moses (AL) stepping down as vice-chair. Several committee members have expressed an interest in assuming the responsibilities of the Chair and Vice-Chair positions. They continue to hold monthly teleconferences on the second Tuesday of each month. During the October teleconference, discussion was had regarding the IFTA Managers’ and Law Enforcement Seminar.

The LEC Best Practices Guide continues to be problematic in regards to formatting the document, but the committee is working to complete this task. They are also continuing to collect and compile the law enforcement contacts from each jurisdiction in both the US and Canada.

During the Audit Committee report, the Board approved the nomination of Mr. Arthur Gumbs (ON) and Ms. AnnMarie Chamberlain (MA) as Chair and Vice-Chair, respectively, effective February 1, 2007. The committee has also requested the Board to consider travel reimbursements for committee members attending and participating at an IFTA meeting, including the Audit Workshop. IFTA, Inc. will investigate the cost of reimbursing travel costs and registration fees for committee members and/or presenters for the IFTA meetings. The Board will revisit this issue at the April 2007 Board Meeting.

A recent survey conducted regarding a joint audit program was reviewed by the Board. The Audit Committee surveyed membership and inquired as to the interest in conducting joint audits on taxpayers. Nineteen jurisdictions were in favor of joint audits while twenty-five opposed the program idea.

The Attorneys’ Section Steering Committee (ASSC) is beginning to collect agenda topics for the 2007 IFTA Attorneys’ Section Meeting in Indianapolis, IN. The committee is also discussing bio-diesel issues and the various issues regarding the Dispute Resolution Process.

Mr. Scott Bryer (NH), Board Liaison to the Information Technology Advisory Committee (ITAC), reported that the committee currently has seven members including representation from industry. A committee roster has been posted to the IFTA, Inc. website. Currently, the committee is working to arrange a teleconference.

The 2008 IFTA decal specifications were reviewed. Both California and Idaho have submitted requests to revise the color and color rotation for the decals. It has also been recommended that a white border be incorporated into the decal design to prevent the color from bleeding against “like-colored” vehicles. The white border would enable law enforcement personnel to more easily identify the location of the decal.

IFTA, Inc. will survey membership to determine the lead time required for the decal specifications and ordering of the decals at the jurisdiction level. Additionally, the LEC will be asked about their position on the color rotation and the use of primary colors only for the decals as well as a sole-source vendor for the decals. The Board will revisit the 2008 IFTA decal specifications following the completion of the survey.

Mr. Kirk Davenport (TX) provided a brief North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) update. A training session was held in September 2006 in California. Over twenty persons attended the training session and included representation from the Border-States as well as Federal and Mexican transportation officials. The training offered an overview of both the IFTA and IRP. Bonding issues were also discussed at this meeting.

With the new Mexican President taking office on December 1, 2006, and the US elections being held in November, it was opined that the borders would not be opened before the end of the year. However, the Border-States are making forward-progress regarding the preparation for the adoption of Mexican carriers.

Reviewing the Board-sponsored ballot proposals for 2006, the Board approved IFTA ballot #1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 11 and 12 to proceed. The Board amended and approved IFTA ballot proposal #4 and #8 to also continue through the ballot process.

The Board reviewed IFTA ballot proposal #10-2006, which was withdrawn during the IFTA Annual Business Meeting and referenced unprocessable tax returns. It is the consensus of the PCRC to allow membership enough time to review and process tax returns that are initially identified as unprocessable. However, the Agreement does not currently allow for this additional time. IFTA, Inc. will review prior Annual Reports requiring an actual count of unproccessable tax returns by the January 2007 Board Meeting. During the 1Q07 Board Meeting, the Board will revisit this issue and consider a possible ballot proposal for 2007. The deadline for ballot proposal submission for next year is March 23, 2007.

An in-depth review of the IFTA, Inc. Strategic Plan was had. During this review, the Board approved the New Board Member Guide as amended. The proposed 5-year budget review was also approved by the Board. This budget will be utilized as a tool in establishing the fiscal year budget over the next five years. A Contingency Plan for IFTA, Inc. was also presented. The purpose of this plan is to prepare for contingencies that disrupt the business operations of IFTA, Inc. For purposes of the plan, it is assumed that the contingencies would be of catastrophic nature that would completely disrupt IFTA, Inc.’s business operations. The Board was in favor of the Contingency Plan as drafted.

The Board also considered establishing a sub-committee to review and discuss the probability of both increasing membership dues and formulating a single dues structure. This sub-committee would be comprised of volunteer Board members. The single dues structure includes the IFTA, Inc. Clearinghouse membership fees. The sub-committee would present it’s evaluation to the entire Board at the April 2007 Board Meeting. During the IFTA, Inc. financial report, Ms. Turner announced that the organization remains financially sound.

In addition, the Board discussed creating a pool of candidates to be used by the Nominating Committee for future Board elections. A Special Committee will also be created to review the bio-diesel and duel fuel issues as they relate to IFTA. Ms. Craig will act as Chair of this committee and solicit representation from the IFTA Standing Committees.

Website updates......by Tom King

Clearinghouse Update [email protected]

Data….Are you using it? As you are renewing IFTA Licenses, please keep in mind that the Clearinghouse has a list of Active accounts with a Revoked status in another jurisdiction. There are over 100 accounts listed and with the renewal process taking place, it may be a good time for you to clear up what is essentially an IFTA compliance issue. The Demographic portion of the Clearinghouse now shows Participating Jurisdictions and the last time they have updated the Clearinghouse with new data. It has already proved helpful in recognizing where some jurisdictions had fallen behind with updates and we were able to remedy the issues. Other jurisdictions are looking at your data, so keep it as clean and as timely as possible. It benefits the entire IFTA Community. Funds Netting Every month the Funds Netting Demo page will be updated with real transmittal data. This will be used in the future to determine financial obligations to all Clearinghouse jurisdictions. While funds netting is still some time away, IFTA, Inc. will be ready to roll it out as soon as we can. User Registration Reminder User Registration for Clearinghouse access is done at the IFTA, Inc. web page, www.iftach.org. ...till next time…..
