Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

The Bureau requested GAO's opinion as to whether it would be authorized to accept the free services and financial assistance of the Social Science Research Council in the preparation of census monographs and, if not, if the Bureau would be authorized to contract with the Social Science Research Council at the nominal rate of payment of $1.00 and assistance in the form of space and equipment for the preparation of official monographs.
