Inspection / Evaluation
Description
The Office of the Inspector General previously conducted an evaluation of Environmental Permitting and Compliance (EP&C) (Evaluation Report 2016-15366 issued September 28, 2016) and identified strengths and risks along with recommendations for addressing those risks. We conducted a follow-up evaluation (Evaluation Report 2017-15497 issued September 28, 2017) and determined that EP&C had taken actions to address most of the risks outlined in our initial organizational effectiveness evaluation; however, concerns with two managers’ behaviors remained unresolved. The objective of this follow-up evaluation was to assess management’s actions to address the remaining risks from our initial and follow-up EP&C organizational effectiveness evaluations. We determined EP&C has taken actions to address the remaining risks outlined in our initial organizational effectiveness evaluation. Specifically, EP&C (1) addressed the risks associated with management behaviors and (2) developed a metric to measure adherence to agreed schedules with business partners.
