Auditor says USM misused $5.3M in Katrina aid
A federal auditor says FEMA should demand the return of $5.3 million of Hurricane Katrina reconstruction money from the University of Southern Mississippi.
The Department of Homeland Security’s Inspector General reviewed $12.2 million of the $41.1 million that USM received to rebuild its Gulf Park campus in Long Beach following the 2005 hurricane.
Federal Emergency Management Agency officials must decide whether to demand the money’s return or discard the finding.
