DOE OIG: Management Controls over Department's Excess Weapons Inventories and Selected Sensitive Equipment used by Protective Forces

Audit Report – Management Controls over the Department’s Excess Weapons
Inventories and Selected Sensitive Equipment used by Protective Forces, January 2009
.

  • “The Department of Energy (Department) was not always properly managing its excess weapons inventories and and selected high risk/sensitive equipment used by protective forces. Specifically, our testing revealed large inventories of weapons that were no longer needed at various locations. These weapons could potentially be used by either other Department sites or other Federal law enforcement agencies. In addition, we noted control weaknesses related to the identification and disposition of potentially high risk/sensitive defensive and tactical equipment.”
