Dunbar, Manager Chicago Operations Office Atomic Energy Commission 9800 South Cass Avenue Argonne, Illinois 60439 Dear Mr. Dunbar: We have made a review for the settlement of accounts of the certifying officers of the Chicago Operations Office, Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), Argonne, Illinois, for the period through June 30, 1970. The review, completed in January 1971, was made pursuant to the Budget and Accounting Act, 1921 (31 U.S.C. 53), and the Accounting and Auditing Act of 1950 (31 U.S.C. 67). We also invite your attention to letter number B-161457, dated August 1, 1969, from the Comptroller General of the United States to the Heads of Federal Departments and Agencies. This letter notified agencies of revised audit emphasis by GAO and reemphasized to the heads of each agency or department their responsibility (1) to maintain adequate accounting and internal controls, including interna3 auditing, to provide assurance of the legality, propriety, and correctness of dis- bursements and collections of public funds, and (2) for the functions of their accountable officers. Our review was directed primari3y toward the settlement of the certifying officero' accounts, and included an examination of administrative procedures and controls relating to the collection and disbursement of funds, and such tests of indi- vidual financial transactions as we considered appropriate. In establishing the scope of our review we considered the most recent internal audits of the activities of the Chicago Operations Office by the Audit Branch, Finance Division, Chicago Operations Office and by the field audit staff, Office of the Controller, AEC. Program operations were not included in this review.
