DOE Trying to Limit Costs Related to Whistleblower Activities | PNWC’s Government Contracting Update

The Department of Energy (DOE) is known for their gigantic cost-type contracts where all of the financial risks are ascribed to the Agency and ultimately American taxpayers. DOE spends billions of dollars every year cleaning up nuclear production sites across the land. It is dangerous work where safety is paramount. DOE contractors seem to generate more than their fair share of whistleblowers. Most of these whistleblowing events relate to safety issues though more than a few relate to financial improprieties (e.g. timecard mischarging or overtime pay for hours not worked).
