Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 200 / Monday, October 17, 2016 / Rules and Regulations
the extent that such provisions have
been identified and an exemption
claimed for the record and the purposes
underlying the exemption for the record
pertain to the record.
(3) Exemption from the particular
subsections is justified for the following
reasons:
(i) Subsection (c)(3). To provide the
subject with an accounting of
disclosures of records in this system
could inform that individual of the
existence, nature, or scope of an actual
or potential law enforcement or
counterintelligence investigation, and
thereby seriously impede law
enforcement or counterintelligence
efforts by permitting the record subject
and other persons to whom he might
disclose the records to avoid criminal
penalties, civil remedies, or
counterintelligence measures. Access to
the accounting of disclosures could also
interfere with a civil or administrative
action or investigation which may
impede those actions or investigations.
Access also could reveal the identity of
confidential sources incident to Federal
employment, military service, contract,
and security clearance determinations.
(ii) Subsection (c)(4). This subsection
is inapplicable to the extent that an
exemption is being claimed for
subsection (d).
(iii) Subsection (d)(1). Disclosure of
records in the system could reveal the
identity of confidential sources and
result in an unwarranted invasion of the
privacy of others. Disclosure may also
reveal information relating to actual or
potential criminal investigations.
Disclosure of classified national security
information would cause damage to the
national security of the United States.
Disclosure could also interfere with a
civil or administrative action or
investigation; reveal the identity of
confidential sources incident to Federal
employment, military service, contract,
and security clearance determinations;
and reveal the confidentiality and
integrity of Federal testing materials and
evaluation materials used for military
promotions when furnished by a
confidential source.
(iv) Subsection (d)(2). Amendment of
the records could interfere with ongoing
criminal or civil law enforcement
proceedings and impose an impossible
administrative burden by requiring
investigations to be continuously
reinvestigated.
(v) Subsections (d)(3) and (4). These
subsections are inapplicable to the
extent exemption is claimed from (d)(1)
and (2).
(vi) Subsection (e)(1). It is often
impossible to determine in advance if
investigatory records contained in this
system are accurate, relevant, timely
and complete, but, in the interests of
effective law enforcement and
counterintelligence, it is necessary to
retain this information to aid in
establishing patterns of activity and
provide investigative leads.
(vii) Subsection (e)(2). To collect
information from the subject individual
could serve notice that he or she is the
subject of a criminal investigation and
thereby present a serious impediment to
such investigations.
(viii) Subsection (e)(3). To inform
individuals as required by this
subsection could reveal the existence of
a criminal investigation and
compromise investigative efforts.
(ix) Subsection (e)(4)(G), (H), and (I).
These subsections are inapplicable to
the extent exemption is claimed from
(d)(1) and (2).
(x) Subsection (e)(5). It is often
impossible to determine in advance if
investigatory records contained in this
system are accurate, relevant, timely
and complete, but, in the interests of
effective law enforcement, it is
necessary to retain this information to
aid in establishing patterns of activity
and provide investigative leads.
(xi) Subsection (e)(8). To serve notice
could give persons sufficient warning to
evade investigative efforts.
(xii) Subsection (g). This subsection is
inapplicable to the extent that the
system is exempt from other specific
subsections of the Privacy Act.
(4) In addition, in the course of
carrying out analysis for insider threats,
exempt records from other systems of
records may in turn become part of the
case records maintained in this system.
To the extent that copies of exempt
records from those other systems of
records are maintained into this system,
the DoD claims the same exemptions for
71381
the records from those other systems
that are entered into this system, as
claimed for the original primary system
of which they are a part.

Interim final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) is issuing this interim final
rule to amend its adjudication
regulations regarding compensation for
disabilities resulting from undiagnosed
illnesses suffered by veterans who
served in the Persian Gulf War. This
amendment is necessary to extend the
presumptive period for qualifying
chronic disabilities resulting from
undiagnosed illnesses that must become
manifest to a compensable degree in
order that entitlement for compensation
be established. The intended effect of
this amendment is to provide
consistency in VA adjudication policy
and preserve certain rights afforded to
Persian Gulf War veterans and ensure
fairness for current and future Persian
Gulf War veterans.
DATES: Effective date: This interim final
rule is effective October 17, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In response to the needs and concerns
of veterans who served in the Southwest
Asia theater of operations during the
Persian Gulf War, Congress enacted the
Persian Gulf War Veterans’ Benefits Act,
Title I of the Veterans’ Benefits
Improvement Act of 1994, Public Law
103–446, which was codified in relevant
part at 38 U.S.C. 1117. This law
provided authority for the Secretary of
Veterans Affairs (Secretary) to
compensate eligible Gulf War veterans
with a chronic disability resulting from
undiagnosed illness. That illness must
have become manifest either during
active duty service in the Southwest
Asia theater of operations during the
Persian Gulf War, or disabling to a
degree of ten percent or more during a
period determined by the Secretary and
prescribed by regulation. The Secretary
would determine this period after
reviewing any credible medical or
scientific evidence, the historical
treatment afforded disabilities for which
VA had established such periods, and
other pertinent circumstances regarding
the experiences of veterans of the
Persian Gulf War.
To implement 38 U.S.C. 1117, VA
published a final rule to add 38 CFR
PO 00000
Frm 00058
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
3.317, which established the framework
for VA to pay compensation under the
Persian Gulf War Veterans’ Benefits Act.
See 60 FR 6660–6666, Feb. 3, 1995. As
part of that rulemaking, VA established
a period of two years after Gulf War
service in which VA would presume a
medical relationship of an undiagnosed
illness to that service. VA determined
that there was little or no scientific or
medical evidence at that time useful in
determining an appropriate presumptive
period for undiagnosed illnesses.
Therefore, VA primarily based this twoyear period on its history of establishing
presumptive periods as well as the
available facts regarding service in the
Southwest Asia theater of operations
during the Gulf War.
The lack of medical and scientific
evidence about the nature and cause of
the illnesses suffered by Gulf War
veterans continued, as did the
uncertainty of an appropriate
presumptive period for undiagnosed
illnesses. Accordingly, VA established
December 31, 2001, as the date by
which an undiagnosed illness must
become manifest. See 62 FR 23138, Apr.
29, 1997. In 2001, VA again extended
the period to December 31, 2006. See 66
FR 56614, Nov. 9, 2001.
In December 2001, section 202(a) of
Public Law 107–103 amended 38 U.S.C.
1117 by revising the term ‘‘chronic
disability’’ to include the following (or
any combination thereof): (a) An
undiagnosed illness; (b) a medically
unexplained chronic multisymptom
illness (such as chronic fatigue
syndrome, fibromyalgia, and irritable
bowel syndrome) that is defined by a
cluster of signs and symptoms; or (c)
any diagnosed illness that the Secretary
determines warrants a presumption of
service connection. The term
‘‘qualifying chronic disability’’
broadened the scope of those illnesses
the Secretary may presume related to
service. Under 38 U.S.C. 1117, a chronic
disability must still occur during service
in the Southwest Asia theater of
operations during the Persian Gulf War,
or to a degree of ten percent or more
disabling during the prescribed
presumptive period following such
service. VA amended § 3.317 to reflect
these changes. See 68 FR 34539, June
10, 2003.
As required by Public Law 105–368,
the National Academy of Sciences
(NAS) reviews, evaluates, and
summarizes the scientific and medical
literature for possible association
between service in the Southwest Asia
theater of operations and long-term
adverse health effects. Following review
of such NAS reports, VA determined
that the evidence remained inconclusive
