Report: Audit of the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board Payment Integrity Information Act Reporting for Fiscal Year 2025
August 4, 2026 | Report No. 26-P-0045
Why We Did This Report
Our objective for this audit was to determine whether the CSB is in compliance with the Payment Integrity Information Act, or PIIA, for its fiscal year 2025 reporting.
Summary of Findings
For FY 2025, the CSB was not required to comply with PIIA and applicable OMB improper payment reporting requirements. While the CSB’s outlays in FY 2025 totaled approximately $10.8 million, none of the CSB’s nine programs met the threshold of $10 million to be subject to improper payment reporting requirements. As a result, the CSB was not required to publish its payment integrity information in its FY 2025 Performance and Accountability Report or to perform risk assessments for those programs. Additionally, the CSB has implemented internal controls to identify and reduce improper payments.
