QUESTIONS FROM REPRESENTATIVE THURMAN

Question 10):

Answer:

At the Subcommittee's request,
the General
Accounting Office prepared a report examining the
most recent inventory and property management
review reports for 20 of the Department's 50 M&O
contractors ("Department of Energy: Status of DOE's
Property Management Program" GAO/RCED-94-154FS).
For each of the past five fiscal years (FY'90
through FY'94), for each M&O contractor, provide
the total number of items and values of property
items missing, stolen, and damaged respectively;
the numbers and values of property items written
off; the numbers and values of property items for
which DOE has initiated action against the
contractor to recover the value of missing, stolen,
and damaged property; and the number and values of
missing, stolen, and damaged for which DOE has
actually recovered the value of such property from
the contractor.

Idaho Operations Office All property items identified as missing, stolen, or damaged were written off for FY 90 -FY 93. FY 94 missing, stolen, and damaged property is under review as part of the contractor close-out process (The Idaho National Engineering Laboratory transitioned from five M&O contractors to one on October 1, 1994). Write-offs will occur upon completion of said close-out process. Under the accountability rule, the contractors were billed and paid a total of $10,918.91 through fiscal year end 1994. Additional items are pending relating to contractor closeout activities. The provisions of the accountability rule were never incorporated in the PTI and MK-FIC contracts. Attached is information regarding the missing, stolen, and/or damaged personal property.

• EG&G and WINCO results for FY 94 are under review as part of the contractor close-out process. Final results will be provided as they become available.
