  Phone Company Cuts Off FBI Wiretap For Unpaid Bill

  A telephone company cut off an FBI international wiretap after the agency failed to pay its bill on time,according to a US government audit released last Thursday.

  据上周四公布的一份美国政府审计报告,美国联邦调查局由于未及时缴纳电话费,其国际窃听线路被电信公司切断。

  FBI spokesman Richard Kolko said “no investigations were adversely affected”.

  美国联邦调查局发言人理查德·科尔克称,“本次拖欠话费未对秘密调查活动造成不利影响”。

  The audit cited a 2006 case in which an FBI employee pleaded guilty to stealing more than $25,000 inconfidential case funds intended for undercover telecoms services.

  该报告还提到2006年的一起FBI工作人员盗用公款案,这名工作人员承认自己盗用了2.5万多美元的秘密通讯服务费。

  In response,the FBI's Assistant Director John Miller said that the bureau is working to fix the problems.

  FBI副局长约翰·米勒说,目前联邦调查局正在着手解决这些资金管理不善的问题。

  The FBI has agreed to accept 11 of the 16 recommendations to improve the agency's tracking and management of the funding system to prevent such failure in phone bill payment.

  为了改善FBI资金系统的监管工作,防止拖欠电话费事件的再度发生,

审计报告中还提出了16条整改建议,FBI已同意采纳其中的11条。
