Abstract | In response to continuing disclosures of fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement in federal programs, the Congress enacted the Federal Managers' Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA) of 1982. By requiring agencies to evaluate and report on their internal control and accounting systems, the act provides the necessary discipline for agencies to identify, remedy, and report on internal control and accounting systems problems that hamper effectiveness potentially cost taxpayers billions of dollars, and erode public confidence in government. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), with about a $4.3-billion budget for fiscal year 1985, manages the national effort to protect public health and the environment by regulating various areas-air, water, pesticides, toxic substances, and hazardous waste. |
