Office of Inspector General

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) provides independent and objective audits and investigations relating to ARC’s programs and operations, and keeps the Commission and Congress fully informed about any problems or deficiencies at the Commission.

In addition, the OIG provides leadership and coordination, recommends policies to prevent and detect fraud and abuse, and promotes economy, efficiency, and effectiveness in agency programs and operations. The OIG has statutory authority to subpoena or otherwise obtain all records, files, reports, documents, or materials needed to conduct audits, inspections, and investigations.

Semiannual Reports to Congress

The Inspector General Act of 1978 (Public Law 95-452), as amended, requires that the Inspector General report semiannually to the head of the Department and the Congress on the activities of the office during the 6-month periods ending March 31 and September 30.
