The second part of this evaluation was limited to another USBR industrial control system that provides monitoring, alarming, and process control to ensure the safe and reliable operations of the water and power facilities for another dam. We determined that additional efforts on this project are not needed.

Allegations of Sexual Misconduct by NPS Biologist Unfounded

Report Number
18-0199

The OIG investigated an allegation that a National Park Service (NPS) biologist had coerced at least two interns into having a sexual relationship, and that the biologist misused his position to lead interns to believe he could influence their chances of gaining employment at the NPS. We found no evidence that the biologist manipulated any NPS interns, or that he misused his position. We determined that the biologist had a personal relationship with one former intern, but the intern was not an NPS employee at the time and the relationship did not violate any NPS policies.
