U.S. Office of Government Ethics 1201 New York Avenue, NW Suite 500 Washington, DC 20005-3917 October 15, 2008 DO-08-032 MEMORANDUM TO: Designated Agency Ethics Officials FROM: Joseph E. Gangloff Deputy Director SUBJECT: 2008 Survey of Ethics Officials This is a follow-up to the 2008 Survey of Ethics Officials recently distributed by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE). The distribution for this survey is very narrow; therefore, it is important that each recipient responds. Because survey responses are anonymous, OGE does not know who has completed the survey. Survey invitations were e-mailed to Designated Agency Ethics Officials (DAEOs), Alternate DAEOs, and other high-level agency ethics contacts on October 9, 2008. The survey closes on October 24, 2008. If you are a DAEO or Alternate DAEO and have not received the survey or would like the survey re-sent to you, please contact Karen Rigby by phone at 202-482-9212 or by e- mail at ethics_official_survey@oge.gov. Ms. Rigby is available to answer any questions regarding the survey. If you have already completed the survey, thank you.
