Dear Colonel Kluever

     We have completed our review of the SPEEDEX Civilian Pay and Leave
Accounting System at Tooele Army Depot.  This review was part of a
broad program of General Accounting Office reviews of selected civilian
pay and allowance systems within the Department of Defense.  To promote
a mutual understanding of issues raised during our review, we dis-

of internal audits conducted of the civilian payroll system during the
2 years prior to our review.

our review to correct the identified deficiencies.

the errors found had  an effect on current payroll. The action taken
and promised  should be sufficient to ensure that all payroll changes
aie input into the systen.

     2.  Civilian payroll personnel agreed to maintain the manual
 leave control registers and conplete these registers in a timely
