Pursuit's Take
While DOT’s AFR included all of the required reporting elements, OIG found errors that constitute noncompliance. OIG found several errors and/or inaccuracies in the improper payment reports. For example, DOT’s future year outlays reported in the Department’s 2015 AFR do not match the future outlays reported in the 2016 Presidents Budget estimates as required by OMB. Additionally, DOT did not complete testing of 1 payment or meet its improper payment reduction targets for 1 of 8 programs.
