Summary: The law requires federal agencies to report annually to the Office of Management and Budget about taxpayer-funded projects that are significantly delayed or over budget—specifically those more than five years behind schedule or costing at least $1 billion more than originally estimated. The OMB must then compile this information and publish an annual report to Congress detailing each troubled project, including explanations for the delays and cost increases, along with any bonuses paid to contractors.
