Description
The OIG found official stations were generally appropriate for TVA's most frequent travelers. However, we noted departments with employees who frequently travel to multiple locations assign official stations in differing ways. Additionally, controls and policies could be strengthened by including guidance on evaluating official stations and requiring approval from the appropriate level of management for decisions not to change official stations based on the dollar values of travel expenses incurred or expected to be incurred. As part of our audit we followed up on TVA management's actions taken in response to the OIG's previous travel review, Inspection 2006-522I, Review of TVA Travel Reimbursements, we noted action plans agreed to in the past do not appear to have been fully implemented.
