Default Crawl space venting into garage

Found a crawl space with concrete floor venting directley into attic, called out that it should be vented to outside and garage vent covered to maintain 1 hour fire break. Have not seen this before. Any thoughts

Write it up. The garage is not a consistent source of fresh air
