Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6197648

This is the third Semiannual Report to Congress by the Secretary of Energy to be submitted under the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended. Pursuant to the Inspector General Act Amendments of 1988 (Public Law 100-504), agency heads are to report to Congress on the status of final action taken on audit report recommendations. This report is complementary to a report prepared by the Department's Office of Inspector General (IG), which provides information on audit reports issued during the period and on the status of management decisions made on IG audit reports. During the time period covered by this report, from April 1 to September 30, 1990, the Department took final action on 27 contract and financial assistance audit reports. At the end of the period, there were only eleven reports pending final action. With regard to operational, financial, and preaward audits, the Department made management decisions on 60 reports and took final action on 71 reports. This is an increase of 45 percent and 30 percent, respectively, from the previous period. There were 40 audit reports remaining that required final action at the end of the reporting period, which represents a decrease of 22 percent from the previous semiannual period and a decrease of 41 percent from the reporting period before that. This report has three parts. The first outlines significant management accomplishments achieved by the Department during the reporting period. The second part contains the statistical tables which illustrate the status of final action on IG audit reports. The third lists the audit reports which are one year or more past management decision and have not completed final action, and provides the status of corrective actions on each report.
