PROFESSIONAL AUDIT REVIEW TEAM
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20548

FOR RELEASE ON DELIVERY
EXPECTED AT 10:00 A.M.
THURSDAY, MARCH 22, 1984

STATEMENT OF
F. KEVIN BOLAND, CHAIRMAN
PROFESSIONAL AUDIT REVIEW TEAM
BEFORE THE
SUBCOMMITTEE ON FOSSIL AND SYNTHETIC FUELS
OF THE
HOUSE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND COMMERCE
ON
ACTIVITIES OF THE ENERGY INFORMATION ADMINISTRATION

Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

I welcome the opportunity to discuss the Professional Audit

Review Team's (PART's) evaluation of the activities of the

Energy Information Administration (EIA).

PART has closely followed EIA's activities over the past

several years, and has issued four reports to the Congress and

the President on our findings and recommendations. Because of

PART's broad legislative mandate, we have focused our work on

EIA's key management functions, and evaluated whether EIA's data

collection and analysis activities are being performed in an

objective and professional manner, consistent with the intent of

the Congress.

In today's testimony I will draw heavily on the tentative

findings and observations of our most recent work. We expect to

report on these matters in April of this year.

In conducting our review, we noted that EIA continues to be

faced with both budgetary and staffing resource constraints.
