At the request of the House Committee on Appropriations the Office of Inspector General will conduct an audit of Amtrak’s five–year capital plan. The objectives of this audit are to determine: (1) Amtrak’s five–year capital requirements and how these align with its business and strategic goals; (2) how Amtrak prioritizes its capital projects among competing needs; (3) Amtrak’s FY 2009 capital needs and ability to implement its increased FY 2008 capital budget; and (4) how Amtrak evaluates the performance of its capital projects.
