Boren United States Senate The Honorable Don Nickles United States Senate I The Honorable James R. Jones 123209 House of Representatives The Honorable Mike Synar House of Representatives Subject: Status of the Bureau of Indian Affairs' Muskogee and Anadarko Area Office Consolidation (GAO/RCED-84-89) Your jointly signed August 19, 1983, request asked us to review personnel and administrative changes underway at the De- partment of the Interior's Muskogee and Anadarko, Oklahoma, area offices of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the implications of such changes for delivery of services to Indian tribes in Oklahoma. In discussions with your offices, we agreed to provide a report on the status of the consolidation. We made our review, which was performed in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards, at BIA's Washington, D.C., headquarters where BIA officials responsible for administrative changes at area offices are located. We reviewed BIA's organization directives and other functional statements for the Muskogee and Anadarko area offices. We also interviewed BIA headquarters and area office officials responsible for planning and monitoring the implementation of the personnel and administra- tive changes at Anadarko and Muskogee. All of the pertinent docu- ments and data concerning the Muskogee and Anadarko area office consolidation were available at BIA's headquarters; therefore, on-site visits to the area offices were not necessary. CONSOLIDATION HISTORY BIA established the Anadarko and Muskogee, Oklahoma, area of- fices in the early 1950's. BIA area offices are responsible for managing a wide variety of programs, such as Indian education, housing financial assistance, road construction design, and real estate. In addition, each area office manages its own administra- tive responsibilities, including staff payroll and equal employ- ment opportunity monitoring. (145954)
