Why We Did This Report
Under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, or IIJA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was provided with over $60 billion in appropriations for Agency programs, including the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Programs, the Superfund Program, geographic programs, and more. Since the IIJA’s enactment, the EPA Office of Inspector General has been conducting timely and relevant oversight to ensure that IIJA funds—taxpayer dollars—are used effectively. Our third annual IIJA progress report covers February 1, 2024, through January 31, 2025, and provides an update on our oversight of the EPA’s use of IIJA funds.
Summary
This report provides updates on the oversight work the OIG planned, initiated, or completed during its third year of IIJA oversight. It also details the OIG’s declaration of 2025 as the “Year of Innovation” and highlights the OIG's continued efforts to engage IIJA stakeholders.
