Investigators found another EPA employee who twice traveled to Paris in eight months for meetings on the management of industrial river basins. The man reported three day meetings but took ten extra days abroad for personal reasons without charging leave.

Costs ranged from 4 627 in Warrenton to 11 722 in Denver. Only one of sixteen RD officials filed financial disclosures as required.
