SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOL OIG is issuing this notice to publish an
updated line of succession and delegations of authority within DOL OIG.
Pursuant to the Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1998 (5 U.S.C. 3345-
3349d) and the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended (5 U.S.C. app.
3), the IG has designated the detailed sequence of succession as
follows:
I. During any period in which the DOL IG, dies, resigns, or is
otherwise unable to perform the functions and duties of the office, and
unless the President designates another officer to perform the
functions and duties of the
[[Page 10393]]
position, the Deputy IG, as the designated first assistant to the IG,
shall temporarily perform the IG's functions and duties in an acting
capacity, pursuant to and subject to the Federal Vacancies Reform Act
(5 U.S.C. 3345-3349d). However, the Deputy IG does not become the
acting IG if, during the 365-day period preceding the IG's death,
resignation, or the beginning of the period in which the IG is unable
to serve, the Deputy IG served as Deputy IG for less than 90 days and
the President has nominated the Deputy IG to the IG position. In the
absence of the IG and Deputy IG, the officials designated below, in the
order listed, shall become the acting Deputy IG and so shall
temporarily perform the delegable functions and duties of the IG. This
order may be changed by a delegation in writing from the IG, or by the
Deputy IG while acting in the absence of the IG:
1. Assistant IG for Investigations (AIG/I);
2. Assistant IG for Audit (AIG/A);
3. Counsel to the IG;
4. Assistant IG for Management and Policy (AIG/MP)
5. An official serving in a Senior Executive Service (SES) or
Senior Level (SL) permanent position in DOL OIG who has the longest
tenure with DOL OIG.
6. A GS-15 Special Agent-in-Charge or Audit Director in a permanent
position in DOL OIG who has the longest tenure with DOL OIG.
II. For purposes of this order of succession, a designated official
is a person holding a permanent appointment to the position. Persons
filling positions in an acting capacity do not substitute for officials
holding a permanent appointment to a position. If a position is vacant
or an official occupying the position on a permanent basis is absent or
unavailable, authority passes to the next available official occupying
a position in the order of succession.
III. This delegation is not in derogation of any authority residing
in the above officials relating to the operation of their respective
programs, nor does it affect the validity of any delegations currently
in force and effect and not specifically cited as revoked or revised
herein.
IV. The authorities delegated herein may not be re-delegated.
Authority: 5 U.S.C. 3345-3349d; 5 U.S.C. app. 3.
Dated: February 16, 2022.
Larry D. Turner,
Inspector General.
