Report Questions Usefulness of Iraq Reconstruction Projects
Poor construction, improper design, substandard materials and lack of maintenance have brought into question the usefulness of seven of eight US-funded Iraq reconstruction projects. "If these projects are typical of the quality and effectiveness of operations and maintenance performance on transitioned projects, the value of the US investment in Iraq reconstruction will be at risk," said Stuart W. Bowen Jr., the special inspector general, in his report to Congress and the Bush administration.
