Summary:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) fiscal year 1992 appropriation included funding for 12 new major construction projects, each estimated to cost $3 million or more. The appropriation law required that VA award (1) construction documents contracts for these projects by September 30, 1992, and (2) construction contracts by September 30, 1993. In addition, VA's appropriation for fiscal year 1991 contained funding for 11 other projects for which VA was to award construction contracts by September 30, 1992. This report reviews the contracting delays of reportable projects for impoundment implications under the Impoundment Control Act. GAO also assesses whether VA had reported all projects funded through these acts for which it had not awarded contracts by September 30, 1992.
