Engagement Memo—Audit of the Company’s Physical Security Efforts in Washington, D.C. (Project code 012-2018)

We are initiating an audit of the company’s efforts to provide physical security at Washington Union Station and the Ivy City Yard. As part of this work, we plan to assess efforts to improve physical security and access controls at these facilities, including company actions taken to mitigate any weaknesses identified in prior internal security risk assessments.

During the audit, we plan to interview company officials (including frontline staff), commuter rail agencies, and federal security officials, as appropriate. We will conduct site visits and analyze company documents and data related to planning, implementing, and assessing physical security efforts specific to Washington Union Station and the Ivy City Yard, and related facilities.
