The students were told to arrive no later than 7:30 and the "adult" running the operation, didn't arrive until 8:00 because she thought that would be plenty of time to set up for an 8:30 test. They didn't start the test until well after 9:30.
I looked into seeing if we could get the results voided, because the noise level was awful.

Are there any consequences for anyone involved in this mishandled operation?

The proctor gave us the wrong amount of time for a section of the test. Everyone looked around like (like, hey, what?) but no one said anything (we trusted she was right).
After I got home I looked up how long I was supposed to have. She'd cut us 10 minutes short.
Sent a note to the ACT ... while they wouldn't void my results, they offered a fee waiver to retest.

The College Board has a number and email specifically for test center complaints: testcenter@info.collegeboard.org / Tel: (609) 771-7710 / Fax: (609) 771-7710.
They may cancel the score and allow your student to retake the test for free.

Interestingly (to me, anyway), over in LWSD we don't spend the money on that. If kids want to take the SAT or ACT, they deal with it themselves: no school-wide testing days (other than the PSAT, of course). It's interesting how districts choose to allocate their money.
She said she thought they started around 9 AM. She said everything went pretty normally, and the only noise she remembers hearing was about two minutes of whistling at the beginning of the essay section.
So it sounded like a pretty typical testing session. She would really NOT like to see results voided. Given that this was the test where students got to take it free of charge, it would really suck for many students to have the results not count. :(
