h. Pending OIG Actions. The RD shall designate a member <strong>of</strong> his or her staff to<br />

review the file <strong>of</strong> submissions to the OIG on a periodic basis. In any case where<br />

payment or other adjudicative action is being held in abeyance pending OIG<br />

disposition, a status inquiry should be sent to the regional <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> the OIG to which<br />

the material was sent each 30 days. The status <strong>of</strong> other cases should be checked<br />

Director for FEC.<br />

the Forms CA-503, and DL-1-56, should be made to the Director for FEC if no<br />

disposition has been made by the end <strong>of</strong> six months following the submission <strong>of</strong> the<br />

documents. When information is received that the OIG has disposed <strong>of</strong> a case, the<br />

Director for FEC should be advised immediately if a report concerning a delay had<br />

previously been made. The Director for FEC will advise the RD whether continued<br />

monitoring by the district <strong>of</strong>fice will be necessary in those cases where reports have<br />

been submitted to him.<br />

a resolution is reached, and the Regional Director should sign any correspondence.<br />

The Office should retain tracking reports on the PC or in hard copy form.<br />
