"The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) internal watchdog will continue work on at least five of its ongoing probes involving former Administrator Scott Pruitt.
Kentia Elbaum, a spokeswoman for the EPA’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG), said Thursday that five closely watched probes that the office has publicly announced involving Pruitt and his close aides will carry on despite Pruitt’s resignation last week. The list appears to include all of the known ongoing audits.
The OIG doesn’t disclose ongoing criminal investigations, but Elbaum said any such probes involving Pruitt will continue as well.
“We can say that any criminal investigations that may have existed at the time of Mr. Pruitt’s resignation will continue,” Elbaum said in a statement."
