C. 20590 Dear Mr. Harper. We have reviewed selected administrative operations and related financial transactions of the Office of Headquarters Opera- tions (HQ) in the Washington headquarters office, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation, for the purpose of settling the accounts of certifying officers covering fiscal years 1965 through 1967. In addition to the financial transactions applicable to FAA Headquarters Operations, our review included those applicable to the operations of FAA's Europe, Africa, Middle East Region and the Bureau of National Capital Airports (BNCA) for which HQ maintains separate accounting records. Our review was directed primarily toward evaluating current administrative procedures and controls, and included such tests of financial transactions as we considered appropriate. In determin- ing the scope of our work, we considered the extent of internal audit coverage of payroll activities. During our review, we noted several deficiencies which resulted, in our opinion, from inadequate supervision and review of the work performed by the HQ accounting personnel. Further, we noted a gen- eral lack of familiarity with pertinent agenpy regulations at the supervisory level. We discussed this matter with HQ officials who agreed and recognized the need for adequate supervision and review and more detailed written piocedures to augment those comprising FAA's accounting system. The officials stated, however, that at the present time, there were not enough qualified personnel avail- able in HQ to carry out all of the needed corrective actions, par- ticularly those dealing with better supervision over HQ accounting opprations. ~Jof g7.-1(
