Dingell Chairman Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations Committee on Energy and Commerce House of Representatives Dear Mr. Chairman: We refer to your interest in the handling of the debt of Mr. J. Michael Tabor--an employee of the Economic Regulatory Administration, Department of Energy--for certain travel and subsistence reimbursements established by our decision J. Michael Tabor, B-211626, July 19, 1983. Subsequent to that decision, recoupment of the debt by salary offset was pre- cluded as a result of a hearing official's decision dated February 22, 1984, under the salary offset provisions of 5 U.S.C. § 5514(a). As you know, by letter dated December 19, 1984, B-211626, we advised the Secretary of Energy that his certifying officer was not relieved of responsibility for the recoupment of funds from Mr. Tabor through means other than salary offset. We suggested that this debt be referred to the Department of Justice for collection by litigation. On May 29, 1985, we requested a status report from the Secretary of Energy. In response, we received a letter dated July 12, 1985, from J. Michael Farrell, General Counsel of the Department of Energy, transmitting a copy of his letter of the same date to the Department of Justice. Mr. Farrell disagrees with our position that the debt is still viable and requests that the Department of Justice review this matter. We enclose copies of Mr. Farrell's letters for your information. We shall keep you advised of further developments. Sincerely yours, Comptroll r General Pof the United States Enclosures 7 / '
