Audit of Tribal Participation in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program from 2018 through 2023
The Office of the Inspector General performed an audit of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA) Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Program due to the increased use of unmanned aircraft in TVA operations. Our audit objectives were to determine if TVA's (1) UAS Program was in compliance with applicable federal requirements and (2) use of unmanned aircraft was in compliance with applicable TVA policies. Our audit scope included TVA's use of unmanned aircraft from January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2024.
In general, we determined TVA's (1) UAS Program complied with applicable federal requirements and (2) use of unmanned aircraft complied with applicable TVA policies. However, we determined 2 of 64 pilots did not have the remote pilot certificate required to operate UAS. We made one recommendation to management to address verification of remote pilot certificates.
