State auditors found 1,564 building access keycards, fobs and badges still active but no longer needed at 20 New York school districts and BOCES, some tied to former employees, ex-contractors and first responders who had moved on, a State Comptroller report says. Only two of the 20 regularly reviewed who had access.

Two Army internal audit offices could not produce files for five projects, one because the auditors with access had left and one because files were lost in a 2023 cloud migration, a Defense Department inspector general peer review says. It also found an auditor who audited financial statements the same auditor had prepared, and rated the program pass with deficiencies.

Officials at 20 New York fire districts had not fully carried out 121 of 163 state audit recommendations, or 74%, a follow-up report from State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli's office says. The Fine Fire District implemented none of its 20, and four districts were listed as persistent nonfilers of required annual financial reports.
