The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Office of Inspector General reviewed the front-end risk assessment (assessment) of the Green Retrofit Program (program) for Multifamily Housing for HUD. Our objective was to determine whether the assessment complied with the Office of Management and Budget’s guidance for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act); the Recovery Act’s Updated Implementing Guidance; and HUD’s streamlined assessment process. Our review of the final assessment for the program determined that it generally complied with the Office of Management and Budget’s guidance for the Recovery Act, the Recovery Act’s Updated Implementing Guidance, and HUD’s streamlined assessment process. Of the 11 factors evaluated in the assessment, none was found to be high risk, four were assessed as medium risk, and seven were assessed as low risk. The assessment’s risk assessment chart adequately addressed planned actions for the four factors assessed as medium risk. Overall, the factors identified above had the major program objectives sufficiently emphasized in the assessment. As a result, there are no recommendations in this memorandum.
