Audit of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network's Fiscal Year 2005 Balance Sheet
We reviewed and evaluated the control design and documentation for the time reporting process to determine whether key financial reporting risks were addressed in the control framework. In summary, we determined process control documentation was inadequate in the areas of establishing responsibility for accurate time reporting, and monitoring of time reported, which resulted in inconsistencies in time reporting processes used at TVA sites. TVA management agreed with our findings and initiated corrective actions to improve guidance. Summary Only

We reviewed $64.5 million of costs billed to TVA by a contractor for subcontracted engineering services performed at Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 1. We determined TVA had been over billed $34,958. The overbilling included (1) $20,243 of temporary living allowance (TLA) payments that had not been approved by TVA, (2) $8,019 of relocation payments made to an employee who had already been paid to relocate to BFN by another contractor, (3) $3,623 of travel expenses that were either ineligible, over contractual limits, or should have been included in overhead, and (4) $3,073 of fees that should have been credited back to TVA. The contractor subsequently credited TVA for the $3,073 of fees. TVA management is planning to review the TLA certifications to determine if retroactive approval is justified and to recover any payments associated with unapproved certifications. Management is reviewing the remaining findings to determine the action it plans to take. Summary Only
