Privacy Act System of Records
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission or Agency) has amended an existing system of records, FCC/OMD-17, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and Privacy Act Requests, subject to the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as amended. This action is necessary to meet the requirements of the Privacy Act to publish in the Federal Register notice of the existence and character of records maintained by the agency (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)).

FOIAonline also permits the public to search various fields of data (as designated by the FCC) concerning FOIA requests, appeals, and responsive records. The FCC began participating in FOIAonline in February 2015. The system has been operational since then without incident.
