Currently, ICF is under scrutiny for its administration of the Louisiana Recovery Authority's "Road Home" program. According to several state and national media reports, including CNN and ABC News, more than a year after [[Hurricane Katrina]], ICF has sent out less than 100 checks out of tens of thousands of applicants. ICF meanwhile has distributed $2.7 million in one-time bonuses to 30 of its top managers. Ms. Anita Rechler is an ICF manager in charge of Road Home activities, which has not accounted program travel expenses which comprise $19 million — or 2‰ percent — of its $756 million contract as reported by the State of Louisiana. According to a press release by Business Wire, in a resolution passed by the State Legislature on December 15, 2006, Louisiana lawmakers have called the contractor "ineffective" and are pressing the state to stop paying the contractor until more homeowners get aid. According to the Washington Post on January 29, 2007, the company's performance has been criticized by Donald Powell, federal coordinator of Gulf Coast rebuilding, and the State House and Senate sent the governor's office similar, unanimous resolutions, directing her staff to fire ICF. |
