December 19, 2003: 6:45 AM EST NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Pentagon has accused Vice President Dick Cheney's former firm, Halliburton Co., of refusing to turn over internal documents that show the company knowingly overcharged taxpayers $61 million for work in Iraq, a published report said Friday. The Wall Street Journal reported that the dispute over the documents is outlined in a Dec. 10 letter from the Defense Contract Audit Agency to a top official at Kellogg Brown & Root, the Halliburton unit handling more than $5 billion of work in Iraq. "It has come to my attention that DCAA has been denied access to and/or copies of internal audit documents and reports performed on KBR operations," the newspaper quoted the letter as saying. The letter was sent by Francis Summers Jr., a regional DCAA director in Texas, to Al Neffgen, KBR's chief operations officer. Company officials were not immediately available for comment. Shares of Halliburton (HAL: Research, Estimates) gained $1.52, or almost 6 percent, to $27.12 in New York Stock Exchange trading Thursday. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 2003 Reuters All rights reserved.
