The semiannual report of the Office of Inspector general for the 6-month period ending March 31, 1989, meets the requirements of Section 208(c) of Public Law 95-91, as amended. Our audit, inspection, and investigative activity during this period continued to focus on identifying opportunities to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and integrity of the Department of Energy's programs and operations. Special emphasis was given to the planning and initiation of projects to review and evaluate the Department's activities relating to environmental, safety and health matters. Implementation of corrective action on the conditions summarized in our reports should help in achieving improvements throughout the Department. On reports where a final Departmental position was received, management committed to more efficient use of funds totaling $309.5 million. The report details the accomplishments of OIG for the first half of Fiscal Year 1989. The report is organized into four major sections. The first section presents an organizational overview of the varied missions and functions of the Department of Energy. The second section describes the significant operational results of our audit, investigative, and inspection activity. The third section discusses the OIG actions during the past 6 months to support Presidential and congressional concerns, and the final section presents an organizational overview of the Office of Inspector General and describes the major management initiatives within our office to build on past accomplishments and to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of our operations.
