The OIG provides independent oversight and promotes excellence, integrity, and accountability within DOI programs.
About us
Regulating energy development; conserving land and water resources; protecting wildlife; conducting scientific research; preserving national parks, monuments, and heritage areas; and addressing American Indian concerns. These diverse activities and more are the responsibility of the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI). The mission of the Office of Inspector General (OIG) is to provide independent oversight and promote excellence, integrity, and accountability within the programs, operations, and management of the U.S. Department of the Interior. We are a highly motivated organization of about 265 employees conducting independent oversight and responding in the best interest of American taxpayers to ensure that DOI earns the public’s trust. We are alert to waste, fraud, and mismanagement, whether expressed as administrative waste or criminal activity, and we use a range of audit and investigative tools to ensure that the Secretary of the Interior, Congress, and the public are informed when changes to DOI programs become necessary to achieve this goal.

Today we honor whistleblowers for the role they play in promoting accountability, integrity, and good government. Whistleblowers help ensure that our institutions work the way they’re supposed to and serve the people they’re meant to serve. Whistleblowers also help us do our job. As an Office of Inspector General, we’re committed to integrity and accountability across the whole of government, and to the success of U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) in particular. To those who have come forward to “blow the whistle” on misconduct at DOI and elsewhere, thank you. And for those looking for more information about whistleblower rights and protections, we invite you to learn more at doioig.gov/whistleblower. #WhistleblowerAppreciationDay #Ethics #Transparency #Accountability #MissionDriven #DOIOIGProud
