The New York Capital Chapter AGA, the
Office of the State Comptroller, and the
AGA National Office, in conjunction with
the National Association of State
Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers (NASACT)
and the Association of Local Government
Auditors (ALGA), is pleased to announce a
new and increasingly important topic to
our audio conference schedule
– how fraud
can undermine the integrity of
environmental programs and create
environmental risks.
You will hear how Criminal Investigators
at the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), working with auditors and
investigators across the federal, state
and local accountability community, are
identifying and prosecuting fraudulent
activities that can affect human health
and the environment. Lean what is being
done to address the systemic weaknesses
that allow fraud to occur and how to
prevent the individuals and organizations
that commit fraud from continuing to do
business with the government. Our
presenters will discuss criminal
wrongdoing that can affect your drinking
water, the schools your children attend
and places they play, and the vehicle you
drive, and many other aspects of your
life. Additionally, the panel will
discuss fraud indicators and efforts to
suspend and debar those who defraud the
public.
To share their
expertise in internal controls are
Michael
Daggett, criminal investigator, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Office of
Inspector General; Leonard Newmark,
criminal investigator, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Office of Inspector
General;
and Frank S. Lane, Director of the
Suspension and Debarment Division, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in
Washington, D.C.
The session
will also include approximately 20 minutes
for Q & A.
Remember to register early. Training
room capacity is limited.
