Agreed-Upon Procedures Review of Corporation for National and Community Service Grants Awarded to the Georgia Commission for Service and Volunteerism
Testimony of Curtis W. Crider, Inspector General, U.S. Election Assistance Commission, before the House Committee on House Administration, Subcommittee on Elections, "The Election Assistance Commission," 12 March 2008
Our audit of $5.9 million of costs billed to TVA by a contractor that conducted various projects and programs from April 1999 through September 2007 found the costs were fairly stated and agreed with the terms of the contract. However, about 20 percent of the payments TVA had made to the contractor were related to a specific project under which TVA acts as an administrator, collecting funds from various federal agencies and disbursing the funds to the contractor. Since the benefits received by TVA for incurring the costs of administering the collection and disbursement of the funds for the project appear negligible, we recommended TVA consider transferring the administration function for the project to the contractor. TVA management and the contractor agreed with the audit recommendation. TVA management and the contractor agreed with the audit findings. Summary Only

We previously issued an audit report (2007-019F) that noted (among other things) significant duct leaks at two fossil plants. Management agreed with our recommendation to work to promote a culture of transparent reporting throughout TVA organizations. We have now closed a joint investigation with the EPA Criminal Investigations Division that found installation of a Selective Catalytic Reduction system led to deterioration in the flue gas ductwork at the Widows Creek Fossil Plant. The deterioration caused extensive leaks that became progressively worse. In spite of the extent of the leaks, it appeared TVA gave little, if any, consideration to reporting them to regulatory authorities. While TVA patched the leaks as they occurred and eventually replaced large sections of the ductwork, we recommended management consult with the TVA Ethics and Compliance Officer to incorporate ethics and compliance considerations into daily operations at the fossil plants.
