Summary

HUD OIG is auditing the use of Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds as nonfederal match for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Public Assistance Program.  We will review four grantees, which as of July 2023, had budgeted more than $904 million and had spent nearly $356 million on completed and underway match activities.  Our audit objectives are to determine whether four CDBG-DR grantees made improper nonfederal match activity payments and whether the Office of Community Planning and Development’s, Office of Disaster Recovery had sufficient and adequate controls to prevent improper match activity payments.
