Your request was received in thisoffice on February 13,2012.The OIG c o n d u e l ~ independell1 itwestigations. audits. inspections. and special reviews ofDHSpersonnel, programs, and operations to detect and dClcr waste, fraud, and abuse, and to promoteinkgrity. economy. and efficiency within DHS.ln response to your request. a scarch wasconducted within the OIG Office of Inspections. That search generated the anached twodocumell1s responsive to your n:ques1. Please note that the document named "Frcqucw:y ReportD-I'" matches the parameters specified in your FOIA request. However. these are not the resultsOIG used for category "D-I"' in survey charts mentioned in the report. Instead.
