Our EPA at work - managing their independent contractors - update
Last night, I found out about this and posted it:
Our EPA at work - managing their independent contractors
Found the EPA report on the situation -- 17 page document here (PDF):
Early Warning Report: Main EPA Headquarters Warehouse in Landover, Maryland, Requires Immediate EPA Attention
Report No. 13-P-0272, May 31, 2013
Complete with 27 8�10 color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us.
The report is a quick read -- lots of photos and lots of boilerplate at the beginning and end. Conditions were really bad there -- not just the man caves.
The initial motherlode can be found here (PDF):
Observations at EPA Warehouse , Landover, MD
Presented to Agency on May 16, 2013
Updated on May 31, 2013 for Public Release
This is 72 pages but it looks like a PowerPoint presentation converted to PDF - fast reading and damning to Apex Logistics, LLC.
They had been dealing with this vendor since 2007. I find it amazing that nobody from the EPA had conducted an audit in those six years or were tracking the valuable inventory (computers, records, supplies, etc...) in parallel with the reports coming from Apex Logistics, LLC and comparing the differences.
Makes me really curious as to just who Apex Logistics, LLC is -- I just spent about 15 minutes on the
Maryland Business License Search website and zero hits on either any permutation of Apex or Logistics or Tim(othy) Graham. Online records only go back to 2011 though.
Time to do some digging...
