Port Security: Better Performance Measures Needed
January 15, 2012
Bookmark and Share

There is a newer Government Accountability Office (GAO) report out on the Port Security Grant Program  Basically it identifies the need to have a better performance measurement process for how grants are being distributed and funding allocated.  Not to mention the administration of the grants which can be pretty convoluted.  

 

By the time things are streamlined there won't be any grant funds anyway!  I guess that might be the ultimate in "streamlining."
