This audit assessed the Department of Energy Yucca Mountain Project Office`s (Project Office) oversight of the Yucca Mountain Project contractor`s leasing of office space. To accomplish the audit objective, we interviewed Department of Energy`s Nevada Operations Office, Yucca Mountain Project Office, and contractor officials, and reviewed: (1) Department of Energy (Department) policies, procedures, and practices; (2) General Services Administration (GSA) requirements for utilization of federally owned or leased space; and (3) the lease for the Valley Bank Complex, Las Vegas, Nevada. In addition, we analyzed space utilization as of February 1, 1990, for the Yucca Mountain Project and compared the results to the GSA standard. Our examination followed generally accepted government auditing standards for performance audits, including tests of internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and regulations to the extent necessary to satisfy the audit objective. 1 fig
