A formal investigation shall be requested if the preliminary compliance review fails to resolve questions on the use of the property or indicates a possible criminal violation. Where there is need for formal investigation the SASP shall notify and cooperate with the Illinois State Police, the FBI, and the federal General Services Administration.
