The Trump Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) officially referred potential mismanagement of a $20 billion Biden-era program to the office of the EPA’s inspector general on Monday.
The EPA’s acting inspector general, Nicole Murley, will be looking over the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), a massive Biden EPA program that sought to award billions of taxpayer dollars green groups loaded with Democrat insiders and donors, according to a Monday letter to Murley from acting Deputy EPA Administrator W.C. McIntosh. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) are also probing the GGRF for potential fraud or mismanagement in their own investigations.
“Recent findings reveal a pattern of reckless financial management, blatant conflicts of interest, astonishing sums of tax dollars awarded to unqualified recipients, and severe deficiencies in regulatory oversight under the prior administration,” the letter states. “The EPA Office of Inspector General (OIG) plays a critical role in eliminating waste and abuse, and we stand with your office in our shared mission to restore accountability and prevent further misuse of taxpayer dollars.”
