Lessons Learned from Prior Oversight Related to the EPA’s Rulemaking

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Inspector General plans to begin a review of previously published federal oversight reports related to EPA rulemaking. Our objective is to describe the lessons we identify from select EPA OIG and U.S. Government Accountability Office reports to help inform the EPA’s future rulemaking efforts. We will conduct our review using Quality Standards for Inspection and Evaluation, issued by the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency.
