Reports

This report details the KPMG LLP auditors' report of the U.S. Department of the Interior's financial statements for fiscal years 2018 and 2017. In its audit of the Department, KPMG reported: • The financial statements were fairly presented, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S.

The OIG completed an investigation to determine if Peabody Energy Corporation (Peabody) submitted false statements to the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) to obtain self-bonds for coal mines on Federal leases in Wyoming and to determine if the WDEQ acted appropriately in the review of those applications. We did not find any false statements submitted by Peabody.

Independent Auditors' Report on DOI Financial Statement for FY 2018 and 2017

This report details KPMG’s findings of its audit of financial statements from the Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians (OST) for fiscal years 2018 and 2017. The OST financial reports contain financial statements and notes for Tribal and Other Trust Funds (Tribal) and Individual Indian Monies Trust Funds (IIM). KPMG issued a qualified opinion, consistent with prior years, on the Tribal financial statements because it was unable to satisfy itself as to the fairness of trust fund balances. KPMG issued an unmodified opinion on the IIM financial statements.

We summarize the DOI’s top management and performance challenges for FY 2018. Nine challenge areas are included in this year’s report.
