This system currently consists primarily
of records of potentially dangerous
taxpayers formerly maintained under
the system of records entitled
‘‘Treasury/IRS 60.001—Assault and
Threat Investigation Files, Inspection,
and Records’’ pertaining to assaults,
threats, and suicide threats maintained
in the Treasury/IRS 60.007—
