06 Marel Termination

PORT OF SEATTLE 
MEMORANDUM 
DATE:    August 08, 2016 
TO:      Audit Committee 
FROM:    Joyce Kirangi, Internal Audit Director 
SUBJECT:  Audit Termination Memo -- Project Deemed Low Risk 
Marel Seattle Inc. Lease & Concession Agreement 
Included in the 2016 Audit Committee Annual Work Plan was a lease and concession audit of
Marel Seattle Inc. The audit objective was to assess whether Port management monitoring
controls are adequate and effective to ensure Marel Seattle Inc. complied with the lease and
agreement terms as stipulated in the agreement. After conducting our planning and assessing
management controls, Internal Audit did not identify significant risks related to this agreement.
We concluded that further audit testing would add no value.
