PBS&J Works Though Woes Of $36-Million Embezzlement

摘要

Tampa-based PBS&J is engaged in a costly effort to repay about 12 to 15 state departments of transportation for reimbursed overhead expenses that were inflated as part of an alleged embezzlement scheme run by the company's former chief financial officer. The amount allegedly embezzled by the former CFO, W. Scott DeLoach, and two subordinates from 2000 to 2005 came to $36 million in PBS&J funds, the company has said. The amount that eventually will be returned to state DOTs may be in the millions but has not yet been finalized, says Todd J. Kenner, PBS&J president.
