$2.5 Million Settlement reached to resolve False Claims Act Allegations against The Eyak Corporation

Date Filed:

Tuesday, June 30, 2015

Settlement Amount:

$2,500,000

A settlement has been reached to resolve False Claims Act Allegations by Eyak Technology LLC (EyakTek) and Eyak Services LLC (ESL) who are accused of submitting false claims to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

From 2005 to 2011, EyakTek held a $1 billion prime contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers known as the Technology for Infrastructure, Geospatial, and Environmental Requirements contract.

The government alleged that, between Sept. 12, 2007, and Oct. 4, 2011, EyakTek’s then-director of contracts, Harold Babb, accepted kickbacks from several subcontractors of EyakTek and ESL in return for using his position to direct subcontracts to them. EyakTek and ESL allegedly submitted invoices to the Army Corps that included charges for work that was never performed by the subcontractors and lacked internal controls to detect the improper charges.

In March 2012, Babb pleaded guilty to bribery and kickback charges. The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia sentenced him to serve 87 months in prison, to be followed by 36 months of supervised release and more than $9 million in restitution for his role in the kickback scheme.
