8.1.4: Recovery.gov

Comply with Office of Management and Budget guidance for ARRA implementation and reporting.

Other Information:

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) created the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, which maintains Recovery.gov so the American people can see how ARRA money is being distributed by federal agencies and how the funds are being used by the recipients. The Board’s goals are to provide transparency in relation to the use of ARRA-related funds and prevent and detect fraud, waste, and mismanagement. DOL fully complies with Office of Management and Budget guidance for ARRA implementation and reporting. On a weekly basis, DOL submits an ARRA Financial and Activity Report to Recovery.gov and posts the report to www.dol.gov/recovery to provide the public with a snapshot of its ARRA-related obligations and outlays. The report includes a breakdown of funding by Treasury Account Fund Symbol, Award Type, and State, as well as a narrative description of the past week’s major ARRA-related developments. DOL utilizes its www.dol.gov/recovery Web site to provide important data and narratives regarding its ARRA-funded programs and efforts, including working training, unemployment benefits, and expanded access to continued health benefits.
