Where To Report Waste Fraud, Abuse, Or Retaliation

The State Police lacks written policies establishing appriopriate internal control over ammunition acquisition, handling and security.

Report Details

Submitting OIG: 
West Virginia Office of the Legislative Auditor
Report Description: 
The objective of this review is to determine if the State Police ammunition storage facilities, policies, and procedures related to the management, storage, and accounting for ammunition resources have improved since PERD last reviewed them in 1999. PERD found that the State Police maintains records on ammunition inventory, but practices have not been formalized through official policies and procedures. The State Police Academy now operates a new, rebuilt facility on the site of the old range, which exceeds the recommendations of the 1999 report.
