A new audit from the New Jersey Office of the State Comptroller reveals a series of incorrect bills sent out by the company the Christie Administration hired to run Sandy cleanup operations.
A new audit released this morning by the Office of the State Comptroller (OSC) finds that the company hired by the state to do cleanup after Superstorm Sandy overbilled for debris removal services in Ocean County. The report makes it clear that the overcharging doesn’t appear to have been done intentionally.
Essex County will receive $1.5 million in federal funding through the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The funds will reimburse the county for cleanup costs in the aftermath of Sandy.
