EPA OIG employees attended the 2024 GovAI Summit in Arlington, Virginia. The event brought together federal agencies, tech leaders, and innovators to discuss the future of AI in the public sector. Our team learned more about how AI could enhance the OIG’s oversight work, from detecting fraud to strengthening data-driven decision making. #GovAI2024 #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Innovation

An independent office that helps the EPA protect the environment in a more efficient and cost effective manner.
About us
The Office of Inspector General is an independent office within the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that helps the organization protect the environment in a more efficient and cost-effective manner. It consists of auditors, program analysts, investigators, and others with extensive expertise. Although the office is part of U.S. EPA, Congress provides it with separate funding than the agency to ensure its independence. What We Do Conduct independent audits, evaluations and investigations; make evidence-based recommendations to promote economy, efficiency and effectiveness; and prevent and detect fraud, waste, abuse, mismanagement and misconduct for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board. We also provide hotline services to our agencies. We discuss issues with EPA management and others, including Congress, and provide detailed reports. Twice a year, we provide a Semiannual Report to Congress that identifies significant EPA deficiencies and proposed corrective actions and profiles our accomplishments. Why We Do It We strive to be a premier oversight organization trusted to speak the truth, promote good governance, and contribute to improved human health and the environment. We provide solutions to problems that ultimately result in making America a cleaner and healthier place.

Our new management implication report highlights a concern that some states are storing vital water infrastructure data in outdated formats, making it nearly impossible to conduct the data analytics needed for proactive oversight. Without proper data, it’s harder to detect potential fraud, waste, or abuse. To ensure accountability in contractor payments, performance, and contracts, states must prioritize structured, digital data storage.
