The Bemidji Post Office provides standard delivery and retail operations in a predominantly rural community in Northern Minnesota. The office also has some mail processing operations typically found inside a processing and distribution center. It processes, and subsequently, dispenses mail to 37 other delivery units in the region for delivery. In November 2023, community members and Postal Service employees in the Bemidji, MN, area contacted their congressional representatives and the media to express concerns about increased package volume disrupting mail service. Delivering and processing all mail timely is critical to the Postal Service meeting its service standards and providing the public with the service it deserves.

EAC OIG performed this review to determine whether EAC complied with the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 reporting requirements for fiscal year 2023.
Our objective was to assess the company’s efforts to support New Jersey Transit (NJ Transit) and oversee company interests as construction advances.We found that the project is both on budget and on schedule, as of January 2024, but we also found that the company has opportunities to improve its support to NJ Transit, the lead sponsor of the project, and better oversee its own interests. Specifically, it did not anticipate the demand for track outages and company labor, it had differing expectations with NJ Transit related to information sharing, and it did not initially staff its project team to effectively manage its work on the project.We recommend improvements to the company’s process for identifying outage, labor, and information needs at the outset of future projects. Further, for the Portal North Bridge project, we recommend that the company assess and address where information-sharing expectations may continue to vary with NJ Transit.
