“Employees with access to the Administrator’s travel account were interviewed and all denied committing the unauthorized release. The investigation was inconclusive,” the OIG report says.
As reported Thursday, the OIG also reported closing investigations into Pruitt’s condo rental and his use of EPA workers for personal tasks. Both were deemed inconclusive because Pruitt’s resignation prevented investigators from interviewing him.
