Opening Statement Of Acting Chairman Hayes
Mr. Hayes. The subcommittee will please come to order. The purpose of today's hearing is to review some of the management problems and some of the contracting activities at the Environmental Protection Agency's environmental research laboratories.
I very much appreciate the panels which have come to testify. I welcome the gentleman from Florida, and in order to expedite what we are doing this morning, first let me go through a few procedural chores.
Mr. Synar always swears in everyone, so I will follow his lead and do that.
Therefore, Mr. Martin and Mr. Konz - as a matter of fact, all the witnesses, we can do this at once and simply get you to rise and raise your right - goodness, we have more people than I thought.
[Witnesses sworn.]
Mr. Hayes. Now, see, if that was a group of politicians, we would all know that, in and of itself, was not true and we could not begin the hearing. [Laughter.]
Let's see what else I have.
I am going to put Mr. Synar's statement in the record and ask unanimous consent his opening statement be placed in the record and included at this point.
Hearing no objection, so do.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book exposes the endemic management issues and contracting irregularities within the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The author, a seasoned EPA Inspector General, meticulously details a litany of misconduct related to outside assistance agreements, such as grants, interagency agreements, and cooperative work. The EPA's increasing reliance on external support has led to cozy relationships with certain contractors, with agency personnel routinely bending and even breaking rules to maintain these connections. These questionable practices include awarding contracts without fair competition, tailoring specifications to favor incumbents, and approving inflated invoices. Moreover, the author uncovers instances of personal service contracts in which contractors essentially perform the duties of government employees and cases where conflicts of interest were overlooked or ignored. This book raises important questions about the agency's commitment to responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars and serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of weakening oversight in the name of expediency.
