More Consistent Monitoring of Asbestos Could Improve Oversight
GAO-24-106324

The General Services Administration is responsible for the cost of cleaning up environmental contaminants—such as asbestos—on federal property. Contaminants can also make it harder or more costly for GSA to sell buildings that the government no longer needs. GSA requires asbestos inspections every 5 years for each federal building built before 1998. But about 2/3 of GSA's buildings haven't been inspected in the last 5...

The federal government has long invested in biomedical research through different Department of Health and Human Services agencies.

For example, agency staff regularly meet to share priorities and identify duplicative work. In addition, the newest health...

A plutonium pit is the central core of a nuclear weapon—the part that triggers the explosion. All the weapons in the nation's nuclear stockpile contain them. But most of the plutonium pits in the stockpile are at least 30 years old. Radioactive decay can affect the performance of these pits as they age. The National Nuclear Security Administration is responsible for the stockpile's performance, safety...

DOD Identified Operating and Support Cost Growth but Needs to Improve the Consistency and Completeness of Information to Congress
GAO-24-107378
Published: Feb 29, 2024
Publicly Released: Feb 29, 2024
DOD spends billions of dollars a year to operate and maintain its weapon systems. These "sustainment" costs—such as for repair parts or personnel—account for about 70% of a weapon system's total cost. DOD reports to Congress on these costs annually. We looked at DOD's FY 2022 sustainment reviews, and found that 7 out of 16 weapon systems had sustainment cost growth above the thresholds identified...
VA Health Care:

In this Q&A report, we review how the Department of Veterans Affairs has organized its suicide prevention program. In 2017, VA combined its suicide prevention and mental health programs into one office. Officials said that this facilitated internal coordination, but that suicide prevention staff had less autonomy to make decisions. VA decided to move the suicide prevention program back into a separate office in 2023—in...

After a student killed 3 people at a base in Florida in 2019, DOD implemented security procedures for vetting these students.

Estimates suggest that millions of renters are evicted each year, but there's little comprehensive data on evictions. Estimates are primarily based on 2 sources: court records and surveys. But these sources collect different data and may not paint the whole picture. Court records only represent filed evictions—not informal ones. Question design, response rate, and more affect survey accuracy. Federal and local stakeholders suggested that eviction...
Head Start:
