DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Privacty Act: System of Records
Office of the Secretary,
Agriculture.
ACTION: Notice of proposed revision of
Privacy Act System of Records.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Privacy Act 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(e)(11), the
United States Department of Agriculture
(‘‘USDA’’) Office of Inspector General
(‘‘OIG’’) proposes to revise two of its
systems of records, USDA/OIG–3:
Investigative Files and Automated
Investigative Indices System and USDA/
OIG–4: IG Hotline Complaint Records.
These systems of records were last
published in the Federal Register on
November 17, 1997, on pages 61262–
61266, 62 FR 61262, et seq.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This notice will be
adopted without further publication in
the Federal Register on June 27, 2005,
unless modified by a subsequent notice
to incorporate comments received from
the public. Although the Privacy Act
requires only that the portion of the
system which describes the ‘‘routine
uses’’ of the system be published for
comment, USDA invites comment on all
portions of this notice. Comments must
be received by the contact person listed
below on or before the proposed routine
uses will become effective as proposed
without further notice on May 26, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David Gray, Counsel to the Inspector
General, Office of Inspector General,
U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1400
Independence Avenue, SW., Room 41–
W, Washington, DC 20250–2308,

The OIG
proposes revising existing routine use
by deleting one half of one sentence of
an existing routine use to avoid referring
to another Agency’s Regulations and to
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate jul<14>2003
11:52 Apr 25, 2005
Jkt 205001
add two routine uses to the routine uses
currently applicable to OIG’s systems of
records to permit disclosure under two
systems of records. The first addition is
for purposes of internal and external
peer reviews of the OIG’s Office of
Investigations specifically relating to the
systems of USDA/OIG–3: Investigative
Files and Automated Investigative
Indices System, and USDA/OIG–4: IG
Hotline Complaint Records. The second
routine use also applies to these same
systems of records to allow disclosure of
these records to the President’s Council
on Integrity and Efficiency (PCIE) and
other Federal agencies, when these
entities conduct an audit or
investigation pursuant to Executive
Order 12993.
The current language of routine use
numbered 13 in both systems of records
is as follows:
(13) Relevant information from a
system of records may be disclosed to
the news media and general public
where there exists a legitimate public
interest, e.g., to assist in the location of
fugitives, to provide notification of
arrests, where necessary for protection
from imminent threat of life or property,
or in accordance with guidelines set out
by the Department of Justice in 28 CFR
50.2.
The proposed revision deletes the last
part of the sentence, to end the sentence
after the word ‘‘property.’’ Thus, the end
of the sentence that refers to the
Department of Justice guidelines and its
regulatory citation is deleted. The
revised routine use will then read as
follows:
(13) Relevant information from a
system of records may be disclosed to
the news media and general public
where there exists a legitimate public
interest, e.g., to assist in the location of
fugitives, to provide notification of
arrests, or where necessary for
protection from imminent threat of life
or property.
The first added routine use is
proposed to reflect an amendment to the
Inspector General Act of 1978, pursuant
to VIII, Subtitle B, Section 812(7) of the
Department of Homeland Security Act
of 2002, which reads as follows: ‘‘To
ensure the proper exercise of the law
enforcement powers authorized by this
subsection, the OIG described under
paragraph (3) shall, not later than 180
days after the date of enactment of this
subsection, collectively enter into a
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
memorandum of understanding to
establish an external review process for
ensuring that adequate internal
safeguards and management procedures
continue to exist within each Office and
within any Office that later receives an
authorization under paragraph (2). The
review process shall be established in
consultation with the Attorney General,
who shall be provided with a copy of
the memorandum of understanding that
established the review process. Under
the review process, the exercise of the
law enforcement powers by each Office
of Inspector General shall be reviewed
periodically by another Office of
Inspector General or by a committee of
Inspectors General. The results of each
review shall be communicated in
writing to the applicable Inspector
General and to the Attorney General.’’
The second added routine use is
proposed to enable an OIG to assist
other OIGs with internal audits or
investigations required by the PCIE
under Executive Order 12993, but
which cannot or should not be
performed by the staff of a particular
OIG that would normally conduct the
investigation, and to allow reports to be
reviewed by the PCIE regarding actions
taken with respect to these
investigations. This routine use will
allow the OIG to conduct assigned
audits or investigations under Executive
Order 12993 and to report its findings,
recommendations and actions taken to
the PCIE. It will also allow the release
of information to other agencies
conducting internal audits or
investigations of the OIG.
The text of the addition of the added
routine uses (to be numbered 14 and 15)
to systems USDA/OIG–3 and USDA/
OIG–4 will read as follows:
(14) A record may be disclosed to any
official charged with the responsibility
to conduct qualitative assessment
reviews or peer reviews of internal
safeguards and management procedures
employed in investigative operations.
This disclosure category includes
members of the President’s Council on
Integrity and Efficiency and officials
and administrative staff within their
investigative chain of command, as well
as authorized officials of the Department
of Justice and the Federal Bureau of
Investigation.
(15) In the event that these records
respond to an audit, investigation or
review, which is conducted pursuant to
E:\FR\FM\26APN1.SGM
26APN1
21390
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 79 / Tuesday, April 26, 2005 / Notices
an authorizing law, rule or regulation,
and in particular those conducted at the
request of the President’s Council on
Integrity and Efficiency (‘‘PCIE’’)
pursuant to Executive Order 12993, the
records may be disclosed to the PCIE
and other Federal agencies, as
necessary.
All other aspects of OIG’s systems of
records remain unchanged and are as
published, other than systems of
records’ locations, which are updated as
set forth in Attachment A. A ‘‘Report on
New System,’’ required by 5 U.S.C.
552a(r), as implemented by OMB
Circular A–130, was sent to the
Chairman, Committee on Homeland
Security and Governmental Affairs,
United States Senate; the Chairman,
Committee on Government Reform,
House of Representatives; and the
Administrator, Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget on April 19,
2005.

United States Standards for Grades of
Globe Artichokes
Agricultural Marketing Service,
USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing
Service (AMS), prior to undertaking
research and other work associated with
revising official grade standards, is
soliciting comments on the possible
revisions to the United States Standards
for Grades of Globe Artichokes. At a
2003 meeting with the Fruit and
Vegetable Industry Advisory Committee,
AMS was asked to review all the fresh
fruit and vegetable grade standards for
usefulness in serving the industry. As a
result, AMS has identified that the
standard may need to be revised to
reflect current marketing practices. AMS
is seeking comments regarding any
revisions that may be necessary to better
serve the industry.
DATES: Comments must be received by
June 27, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments to
the Standardization Section, Fresh
Products Branch, Fruit and Vegetable
Programs, Agricultural Marketing
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture,
1400 Independence Ave. SW., Room
1661 South Building, Stop 0240,

FPB.DocketClerk@usda.gov. Comments
should make reference to the dates and
page number of this issue of the Federal
Register and will be made available for
public inspection in the above office
during regular business hours. The
United States Standards for Grades of
Globe Artichokes is available either at
the above address or by accessing the

or call (202) 720–2185; e-mail
David.Priester@usda.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
203(c) of the Agricultural Marketing Act
of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1621–1627), as
amended, directs and authorizes the
Secretary of Agriculture ‘‘To develop
and improve standards of quality,
condition, quantity, grade and
packaging and recommend and
demonstrate such standards in order to
encourage uniformity and consistency
PO 00000
Frm 00003

in commercial practices.’’ AMS is
committed to carrying out this authority
in a manner that facilitates the
marketing of agricultural commodities
and makes copies of official standards
available upon request. The United
States Standards for Grades of Fruits
and Vegetables not connected with
Federal Marketing Orders or U.S. Import
Requirements no longer appear in the
Code of Federal Regulations, but are
maintained by USDA/AMS/Fruit and
Vegetable Programs.
AMS is considering whether to revise
the voluntary United States Standards
for Grades of Globe Artichokes using
procedures that appear in Part 36, Title
7 of the Code of Federal Regulations (7
CFR part 36).
Background
At a 2003 meeting with the Fruit and
Vegetable Industry Advisory Committee,
AMS was asked to review all the fresh
fruit and vegetable grade standards for
usefulness in serving the industry. As a
result, AMS has identified the United
States Standards for Grades of Globe
Artichokes for possible revision. These
standards were last revised in 1969. As
a result, AMS has identified that the
standard may need to be revised to
reflect current marketing trends.
However, prior to undertaking detailed
work to develop proposed revisions to
the standards, AMS is seeking
comments on whether any revisions are
necessary to better serve the industry
and the probable impact of any
revisions on distribution, processors,
and growers.
This notice provides for a 60-day
comment period for interested parties to
comment on whether any changes are
necessary to the standards. Should AMS
conclude that there is a need for any
revisions of the standards, the proposed
revisions will be published in the
Federal Register with a request for
comments in accordance with 7 CFR
part 36.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 1621–1627.

Privacty Act: System of Records
AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, Agriculture.
ACTION: Notice of proposed revision of Privacy Act System of Records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(e)(11), the
United States Department of Agriculture (``USDA'') Office of Inspector
General (``OIG'') proposes to revise two of its systems of records,
USDA/OIG-3: Investigative Files and Automated Investigative Indices
System and USDA/OIG-4: IG Hotline Complaint Records. These systems of
records were last published in the Federal Register on November 17,
1997, on pages 61262-61266, 62 FR 61262, et seq.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This notice will be adopted without further publication
in the Federal Register on June 27, 2005, unless modified by a
subsequent notice to incorporate comments received from the public.
Although the Privacy Act requires only that the portion of the system
which describes the ``routine uses'' of the system be published for
comment, USDA invites comment on all portions of this notice. Comments
must be received by the contact person listed below on or before the
proposed routine uses will become effective as proposed without further
notice on May 26, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Gray, Counsel to the Inspector
General, Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Agriculture,
1400 Independence Avenue, SW., Room 41-W, Washington, DC 20250-2308,
telephone: (202) 720-9110, Facsimile: (202) 690-1528, e-mail:
drgray@oig.usda.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OIG proposes revising existing routine
use by deleting one half of one sentence of an existing routine use to
avoid referring to another Agency's Regulations and to add two routine
uses to the routine uses currently applicable to OIG's systems of
records to permit disclosure under two systems of records. The first
addition is for purposes of internal and external peer reviews of the
OIG's Office of Investigations specifically relating to the systems of
USDA/OIG-3: Investigative Files and Automated Investigative Indices
System, and USDA/OIG-4: IG Hotline Complaint Records. The second
routine use also applies to these same systems of records to allow
disclosure of these records to the President's Council on Integrity and
Efficiency (PCIE) and other Federal agencies, when these entities
conduct an audit or investigation pursuant to Executive Order 12993.
The current language of routine use numbered 13 in both systems of
records is as follows:
(13) Relevant information from a system of records may be disclosed
to the news media and general public where there exists a legitimate
public interest, e.g., to assist in the location of fugitives, to
provide notification of arrests, where necessary for protection from
imminent threat of life or property, or in accordance with guidelines
set out by the Department of Justice in 28 CFR 50.2.
The proposed revision deletes the last part of the sentence, to end
the sentence after the word ``property.'' Thus, the end of the sentence
that refers to the Department of Justice guidelines and its regulatory
citation is deleted. The revised routine use will then read as follows:
(13) Relevant information from a system of records may be disclosed
to the news media and general public where there exists a legitimate
public interest, e.g., to assist in the location of fugitives, to
provide notification of arrests, or where necessary for protection from
imminent threat of life or property.
The first added routine use is proposed to reflect an amendment to
the Inspector General Act of 1978, pursuant to VIII, Subtitle B,
Section 812(7) of the Department of Homeland Security Act of 2002,
which reads as follows: ``To ensure the proper exercise of the law
enforcement powers authorized by this subsection, the OIG described
under paragraph (3) shall, not later than 180 days after the date of
enactment of this subsection, collectively enter into a memorandum of
understanding to establish an external review process for ensuring that
adequate internal safeguards and management procedures continue to
exist within each Office and within any Office that later receives an
authorization under paragraph (2). The review process shall be
established in consultation with the Attorney General, who shall be
provided with a copy of the memorandum of understanding that
established the review process. Under the review process, the exercise
of the law enforcement powers by each Office of Inspector General shall
be reviewed periodically by another Office of Inspector General or by a
committee of Inspectors General. The results of each review shall be
communicated in writing to the applicable Inspector General and to the
Attorney General.''
The second added routine use is proposed to enable an OIG to assist
other OIGs with internal audits or investigations required by the PCIE
under Executive Order 12993, but which cannot or should not be
performed by the staff of a particular OIG that would normally conduct
the investigation, and to allow reports to be reviewed by the PCIE
regarding actions taken with respect to these investigations. This
routine use will allow the OIG to conduct assigned audits or
investigations under Executive Order 12993 and to report its findings,
recommendations and actions taken to the PCIE. It will also allow the
release of information to other agencies conducting internal audits or
investigations of the OIG.
The text of the addition of the added routine uses (to be numbered
14 and 15) to systems USDA/OIG-3 and USDA/OIG-4 will read as follows:
(14) A record may be disclosed to any official charged with the
responsibility to conduct qualitative assessment reviews or peer
reviews of internal safeguards and management procedures employed in
investigative operations. This disclosure category includes members of
the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency and officials and
administrative staff within their investigative chain of command, as
well as authorized officials of the Department of Justice and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation.
(15) In the event that these records respond to an audit,
investigation or review, which is conducted pursuant to
[[Page 21390]]
an authorizing law, rule or regulation, and in particular those
conducted at the request of the President's Council on Integrity and
Efficiency (``PCIE'') pursuant to Executive Order 12993, the records
may be disclosed to the PCIE and other Federal agencies, as necessary.
All other aspects of OIG's systems of records remain unchanged and
are as published, other than systems of records' locations, which are
updated as set forth in Attachment A. A ``Report on New System,''
required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), as implemented by OMB Circular A-130, was
sent to the Chairman, Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental
Affairs, United States Senate; the Chairman, Committee on Government
Reform, House of Representatives; and the Administrator, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget on
April 19, 2005.
Dated: April 19, 2005.

Secretary of Agriculture.
