Description

In 2000, Congress asked for a review of the Chemical Safety Board’s (CSB) effectiveness in carrying out its mission. The report cited problems with CSB’s governance, mgmt., policies, and procedures. It was recommended that CSB obtain the services of an existing office of Inspector General (IG). Since FY 2001, 3 IGs -- from FEMA, DHS, and EPA -- have provided oversight to CSB.
