Privacy Act of 1974; Amendment to Existing Notices of Systems of

Records

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice of updates of existing systems of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: OPM proposes to add new routine uses of disclosure to four

existing record systems, and expand the purpose for which one of the

systems collects information.

DATES: The changes will become effective without further notice on July

15, 1994, unless comments are received that dictate otherwise.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to C. Ronald Trueworthy,

Chief, Information Policy Branch, room CHP 500, Plans and Policies

Division, Office of Information Resources Management, Administration

Group, Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street NW., Washington DC

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Leslie Crawford, 703-908-8550.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is being published under the

authority of 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11), which provide that the

public be given a 30-day period to comment on any new routine uses of a

system of records. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has

oversight responsibilities under the Privacy Act, requires a 40-day

period to review the reported changes. A report of these changes has

been provided to OMB and Congress.

OPM's Internal and Central system notices were previously published

in the Federal Register in full on April 12, 1993 (58 FR 19154-19191).

OPM's Governmentwide system notices were last published in full on

August 10, 1992 (57 FR 35698), with a correction published on November

30, 1992 (57 FR 56733).

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is establishing new

routine uses for OMP/Internal-6 and OPM/Internal-11 to allow for the

disclosure of information to contractors/grantees/volunteers performing

a service for the Federal government.

A new routine use is being added to OPM/Central-10 to allow

disclosure of Federal Executive Alumni (FEI) directory information to

FEI alumni.

In OPM/Central-11, Presidential Management Intern Program Records,

the entries detailing the categories of individuals and records

included the system are being updated for accuracy. The Purpose section

is being expanded to include the facilitation of interaction between

PMIP participants and alumni. The Routine Uses section is being

modified to add a new routine use to allow the disclosure of names and

home addresses to other PMIP participants and alumni.

Office of Personnel Management,

Lorraine A. Green,

Deputy Director.
