June 19, 2014
Posted by on The Freedom of Information Act gives any person the right to request records kept by the federal government.
The OIG said the NRC generally follows federal rules and meets timeliness requirements in responding to these requests. But the audit found the NRC could improve through enhanced training, better use of technology, and better adherence with review and approval regulations.
The agency would also benefit from establishing controls to ensure more consistency in and better tracking of management reviews.
