Privacy Act of 1974: System of Records, 35727-35728 [E6-9732]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 119 / Wednesday, June 21, 2006 / Notices will be considered to the extent practicable, but FMCSA may make its final decision at any time after the close of the comment period. FMCSA believes the requirements for a renewal of an exemption under 49 U.S.C. 31315 and 31136(e) can be satisfied by initially granting the renewal and then requesting and subsequently evaluating comments submitted by interested parties. As indicated above, the Agency previously published a notice of final disposition announcing its decision to exempt these 19 Isuzu drivers from the CDL requirement in 49 CFR 383.23. The decision to renew the exemption for these drivers was based on the merits of each driver’s demonstrated knowledge and skills about the safe operation of commercial motor vehicles, and only after careful consideration of the comments submitted in response to the April 30, 2003 (68 FR 23174) notice. The notice of application for exemption indicated that detailed information about the qualifications and experience of each of the drivers was provided in Isuzu’s application and that a copy of the application is in the docket. The docket number is referenced at the beginning of this notice. Interested parties or organizations possessing information that would otherwise show that any, or all of these drivers, are not currently achieving the requisite statutory level of safety should immediately notify FMCSA. The Agency will evaluate any adverse information submitted and, if safety is being compromised or if the continuation of the exemption is not consistent with 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(4) and 31136(e), FMCSA will take immediate steps to revoke the exemption of the driver(s) in question. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 31136 and 31315; and 49 CFR 1.73. Issued on: June 15, 2006. David H. Hugel, Acting Administrator. [FR Doc.

Authority for maintenance of the system:
    49 U.S. C. 31136 (e), Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1984, 49 U.S.C. 
31315, and the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) 
which was enacted June 9, 1998 as Public Law 105-178.

Purposes:
    To provide FMCSA personnel with a centralized document repository 
application for archiving and accessing documents relevant to FMCSA 
business processes. The mission of FMCSA is to improve the safety of 
commercial motor vehicles and save lives by enforcing the laws and 
regulations set forth to govern motor carrier operations. The business 
processes included in realizing this mission are the performance of 
compliance reviews and inspections on motor carrier operations and 
inspections of commercial motor vehicles, which may result in 
enforcement actions being taken against a motor carrier for failure to 
adhere to motor carrier laws and regulations. EDMS contains the 
documents related to these processes and allows all authorized users 
access to these documents in the performance of their duties.
    EDMS is also used in the administrative process as a central 
repository in the operation of a specific office within FMCSA. Travel, 
procurement, budget and other administrative documents are housed in 
this system to support the migration to a ``paperless'' work 
environment.

Routine uses of records maintained in the system, including categories 
of users and the purposes of such uses:
    See Prefatory Statement of General Routine Uses.

Disclosure to consumer reporting agencies:
    None.

Policies and practices for storing, retrieving, accessing, retaining, 
and disposing of records in the system:
Storage:
    Documents are stored on this system on a dedicated server. Metadata 
specific to each document is stored on a separate database server and 
is dynamically linked to each document.

Retrievability:
    Records are retrievable by USDOT number, carrier census information 
(carrier name, DBA, address, etc.), Division, Service Center, Driver 
Name, Employee Name, Document Category, Document Date, Author, and 
Fiscal Year.

Safeguards:
    The electronic records uploaded to EDMS are stored in one server on 
a secure web-based system. The index data associated with these 
documents is stored on a database server. Both of these servers are 
physically protected by virtue of the fact that they are housed in a 
limited-access controlled server room. The entire EDMS application is 
electronically safeguarded through the use of HTTPS and SSL (Secure 
Socket Links) and is accessible only to users within the FMCSA network, 
or from specific IP addresses of authorized contractors. All users of 
the system are required to obtain a user name through FMCSA Technical 
Support, the contractor support group which provides technical support 
to the majority of FMCSA Information Technology systems. All 
applications for accounts must first be approved by the FMCSA 
Organizational Coordinator for the area in which the user works. All 
requests are then reviewed by FMCSA Technical Support to ensure 
conformance with FMCSA's security standards. Once a user is approved, 
FMCSA Technical Support contacts the user via e-mail and requests that 
the user call FMCSA Technical Support to obtain their temporary 
password to the system. The temporary password is configured to expire 
and force the user to change his/her password upon first login attempt. 
All FMCSA employees are eligible for an account in EDMS, but access to 
certain libraries contained on the system is dependent upon the user's 
role.

Retention and disposal:
    The files are retained and disposed of according to the FMCSA Field 
Records Schedule according to the National Archives and Records 
Administration, and FMCSA policy.
