TOIG - OIG-23-031 - 1-1

The Chief of the Treasury Office of Recovery Programs works with the OIG to ensure that the ASG Treasurer returns to Treasury the $1.5 million of CRF proceeds that were used to purchase the MV Pago Pago in violation of subsection 601(d) of the Social Security Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 801(d)), as well as Treasury’s Guidance and FAQs. To the extent funds are not returned, Treasury OIG will seek recoupment under its authority assigned by the CARES Act.
