D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty says the federal government has reimbursed the city for all costs related to President Barack Obama's inauguration, totaling nearly $43 million.

Fenty said Monday that the city was paid back for all costs related to the 240 inaugural-related events hosted by the city from Jan. 16 to Jan. 21.

He also released a report on the city's handling of the inauguration.

The report says there were no arrests or fatalities during those events. On Inauguration Day, city emergency services saw 86 percent more calls than on an average day.

Officials say constantly changing plans made it difficult to share information and train agencies for inaugural operations.
