Description
In accordance with the Reports Consolidation Act of 2000, we are submitting what we have determined to be the most significant management and performance challenges facing the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), for inclusion in the DOI’s Agency Financial Report for fiscal year 2019. Six challenge areas are included in this year’s report, namely financial management, workplace culture and human capital, responsibility to American Indians, energy management, IT security, and water programs. Each challenge area connects to the DOI’s mission and strategic plan, and reflects continuing vulnerabilities and emerging issues. This report is based on specific OIG and U.S. Government Accountability Office reviews and other reports, as well as our general knowledge of the DOI’s programs and operations. We met with key DOI officials to gain their perspectives on the challenge areas and progress made under each.
