The magnitude 6.6 quake damaged historical buildings as far away as Rome and led to the closure of schools there, but most damage is reported in the medieval walled town of Norcia, close to the epicenter.
The incident highlights the risks at some of the older U.S. airports hemmed in by development or their placement near bodies of water that have prevented them from lengthening runways to modern safety standards.
The OIG recently released reports that deemed $9.9 million in approved funds for the Town of North Hempstead ineligible, unsupported or unused and $668,430 in federal funds ineligible.
