EPA's inspector general says it is expanding the scope of its previously announced probe into Administrator Scott Pruitt's travel to include all of his travel.
The IG's office already opened an audit of Pruitt's travel to and from Oklahoma following complaints that he spent too much time back in his home state. In recent weeks, Democratic lawmakers and outside groups have called for the IG to look at whether Pruitt's non-commercial flights were necessary and appropriate expenses.
According to a memo dated Thursday and released today, the significantly expanded scope will consider the "frequency, cost and extent" or Pruitt's travel through Sept. 30, as well as whether agency procedures were followed by Pruitt, his security and his staff, and whether those procedures are properly designed to prevent fraud, waste or abuse.
"To accomplish these objectives, we will review supporting documentation and conduct interviews with management and staff to determine whether the EPA followed applicable policies and practices, and complied with federal requirements," the memo says.
WHAT'S NEXT: The investigation is likely to take several months to complete.
