Lower Valley Transmission Project

For several decades, the Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site (Site) operated as part of the Nation's nuclear weapons production complex. In 1989, however, the Department of Energy (DOE) ceased production at the Site and, by 1992, DOE began transitioning Rocky Flats to a cleanup mode. DOE's goal is to convert the Site to beneficial use in a manner that is safe, environmentally and socially responsible, physically secure, and economical. We initiated this audit to determine whether the Site was maximizing its reuse of excess facilities.ý

The Federal emphasis on reinventing Government and the end of the Cold War have driven change at the Department of Energy. In the midst of this change, the Department’s Information Architecture Program was initiated. Over the past several years, the Department realized that information management and strategic planning efforts must focus on the utility and management of information, rather than management of technology. The importance of an information architecture was also recognized by Congress through the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996. This law required the establishment of a Chief Information Officer position in each Federal agency with the responsibility to develop and implement an integrated information architecture. The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Department had developed and implemented an Information Technology Architecture.
