EPA OIG: Environmental Job Training Program Implemented Well, But Focus Needed on Possible Duplication With Other EPA Programs 

EPA did not have internal controls to identify and prevent duplication with other EPA job training programs. Consequently, there is some risk of duplication in EPA awards for job training programs. Other EPA programs that could possibly duplicate Environmental Job Training activities include the:

•   Superfund Job Training Initiative (SuperJTI) job readiness program
•   Surveys, Studies, Investigations, Training and Special Purpose Activities Relating to Environmental Justice grant program
•   Environmental Justice Small Grant Program

EPA recognizes the need to identify possible duplication.
