AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of
the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, (5
U.S.C. 552a), the Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) is issuing public
notice of its intent to add a new
electronic Bureau-wide system of
records, the Wild Horse and Burro
Program System (WHBPS). This system
supports the management of the Wild
Horse and Burro (WHB) program and
will contain data covered by the Privacy
Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C.
552A). The WHBPS is a centrally hosted
Web-based application that is only
accessible by authorized government
users through the BLM intranet for the
purpose of administering the WHB
program. 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 systems maintained by the
agency (5 U.S. C. 552a(e)(4)).
DATES: Effective Date: 5 U.S.C.
552a(e)(11) requires that the public be
provided a 30-day period in which to
comment on the agency’s intended use
of the information in the system of
records. The Office of Management and
Budget, in its Circular A–130, requires
an additional 10-day period (for a total
of 40 days) in which to make these
comments. Any persons interested in
commenting on this proposed system of
records may do so by submitting
comments in writing to the Bureau of
Land Management Privacy Act Officer,
Information Resources Management
Governance Division, Department of the
Interior, WO560/725 LS, 1849 C Street,
NW., Washington, DC 20240. Comments
received within 40 days of the
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register will be considered. The system
will be effective as proposed at the end
of the comment period unless comments
are received which would require a
contrary determination.
Before including your address, phone
number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The BLM
is proposing to add a new system of
records, the Wild Horse and Burro
Program System (WHBPS), to support
management of the Wild Horse and
Burro (WHB) program. This system will
replace the legacy Wild Horse and Burro
Information System (WHBIS) as the
WHBIS is no longer technologically
supported. The WHBPS is a centrally
hosted web-based application that is
only accessible by authorized
government users through the BLM
intranet. The new system covers the full
range of activities related to
management of wild horses and burros.
As a part of managing those activities,
the WHBPS will contain information on
adopters and buyers of wild horses or
burros and information on government
employees, contractors, volunteers and
service providers supporting WHB
program activities.
A copy of the system notice for the
‘‘Wild Horse and Burro Program System,

amended (5 U.S.C. 552A). The WHBPS is a centrally hosted Web-based

program. 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 systems maintained by the agency (5 U.S. C.
552a(e)(4)).
DATES: Effective Date: 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(11) requires that the public be
provided a 30-day period in which to comment on the agency's intended
use of the information in the system of records. The Office of

10-day period (for a total of 40 days) in which to make these comments.
Any persons interested in commenting on this proposed system of records
may do so by submitting comments in writing to the Bureau of Land
Management Privacy Act Officer, Information Resources Management
Governance Division, Department of the Interior, WO560/725 LS, 1849 C

comment period unless comments are received which would require a
contrary determination.
Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can
ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying
[[Page 67957]]
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be
able to do so.
