EPA OIG: Need Continues for a Strategic Plan to Protect Children’s Health

EPA OIG Evaluation: Need Continues for a Strategic Plan to Protect Children’s Health, Report No. 10-P-0095, April 5, 2010

  • “Five years after providing Office of Children’s Health Protection (OCHP) with recommendations related to the strategic and annual planning processes, agreed-to corrective actions have not been completed. According to OCHP, which is now the Office of Children’s Health Protection and Environmental Education (OCHPEE), corrective actions have not been implemented due to constant turnover in office directors, one of whom claimed that the corrective actions were completed prior to closing the recommendations. If these corrective actions were implemented, OCHPEE would be able to demonstrate, on an annual basis, its impact on the protection of children’s health. However, OCHPEE’s lack of strategic planning, identified goals, adequate measures, and quantifiable accomplishments result in its inability to demonstrate its role and value added to the protection of children’s health.”
