ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0Shongaloo Water System, Inc. respectfully requests abatement of any late filing penalties associated with its Form 990 for the 2024 tax year based on reasonable cause. During 2024, the organization experienced extraordinary and non-recurring events that significantly delayed the completion of an accurate and complete return. Specifically, Shongaloo Water System, Inc. merged with two separate rural water systems - Dorcheat Acres Water System, Inc. and Stateline Waterworks, Inc. These two entities were maintained and reported by tax preparers other than our regular accountant, and their accounting records were prepared using different methodologies. As a result, substantial additional time was required to obtain records, reconcile differences, determine appropriate cutoff dates, and properly account for the mergers in accordance with applicable reporting requirements. The complexity of integrating two unrelated systems created numerous followup questions and delays that could not reasonably have been anticipated at the time the return was due. In addition, during 2024, the organization received over $1.5 million in government grant funding. Determining the correct timing and treatment of those grant funds for financial statement and tax reporting purposes required further analysis and documentation, contributing to the extended preparation period. Compounding these issues, our accounting firm experienced unexpected staff turnover during the year, including the loss of several experienced CPAs. This required internal reassignment of projects to maintain client commitments. Although the return was ultimately assigned to an experienced preparer, the review and analysis of merger documentation from multiple third party professionals took longer than expected to ensure the return was accurate and complete. At all times, Shongaloo Water System, Inc. acted in good faith and exercised ordinary business care and prudence in attempting to comply with its filing obligations. The delay was not due to willful neglect but rather to unusual and complex circumstances beyond the organizations control. The return was filed as soon as the necessary information was obtained and an accurate return could be prepared. THe 2024 tax year was an atypical reporting period due to these mergers and related system improvements. The organization has since centralized bookkeeping for the combined water systems and does not anticipate similar issues in future years. Shongaloo Water System, Inc. remains committed to timely and accurate compliance with IRS filing requirements going forward. For these reasons, we respectfully request that any penalties assessed for late filing of the 2024 Form 990 be waived due to reaonsable cause.
