Records Used in Computer Matching
AGENCY:
Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB).
Notice of Records Used in
Computer Matching Programs;
Notification to individuals who are
beneficiaries under the Railroad
Retirement Act.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: As required by the Computer
Matching and Privacy Protection Act of
1988, RRB is issuing public notice of its
use and intent to use, in ongoing
computer matching programs, civil
service benefit and payment information
obtained from the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM).
The purpose of this notice is to advise
individuals applying for or receiving
benefits under the Railroad Retirement
Act of the use made by RRB of this
information obtained from OPM by
means of a computer match.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties may
comment on this publication by writing
to Ms. Beatrice Ezerski, Secretary to the
Board, Railroad Retirement Board, 844
North Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois
60611–2092.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Lynn Harvey, Privacy Act Officer,
Railroad Retirement Board, 844 North
Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611–
2092, telephone number (312) 751–
4869.
The
Computer Matching and Privacy
Protection Act of 1988, Public Law 100–
503, requires a Federal agency
participating in a computer matching
program to publish a notice regarding
the establishment of a matching
program.
Name of Participating Agencies:
Office of Personnel Management and
Railroad Retirement Board.
Purpose of the Match: The purpose of
the match is to enable the RRB to (1)
identify affected RRB annuitants who
are in receipt of a Federal public
pension benefit but who have not
reported receipt of this benefit to the
RRB and (2) receive needed Federal
public pension benefit information for
affected RRB annuitants more timely
and accurately. Previously the RRB
relied on the affected annuitant to report
adjustments in the amounts of such
public pension benefits.
Authority for Conducting the Match:
Sections 3(a)(1), 4(a)(1) and 4(f)(1) of the
Railroad Retirement Act require that the
RRB reduce the Railroad Retirement

benefits of certain beneficiaries entitled
to Railroad Retirement employee and/or
spouse/widow benefits who are also
entitled to a government pension based
on their own non-covered earnings. This
reduction is referred to as Public Service
Pension offset. Section 224 of the Social
Security Act provides for the reduction
of disability benefits when the disabled
worker is also entitled to a public
disability benefit (PDB). This reduction
is referred to as PDB offset. A civil
service disability benefit is considered a
PDB. Section 224(h)(1) requires any
Federal agency to provide RRB with
information in its possession that RRB
may require for the purposes of making
a timely determination of the amount of
reduction under section 224 of the
Social Security Act. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
Section 552a(b)(3) OPM has established
routine uses to disclose the subject
information to RRB.
Categories of Records and Individuals
Covered: The records to be used in the
match and the roles of the matching
participants are described as follows:
OPM will provide RRB twice a year
with a magnetic tape file extracted from
its annuity and survivor master file of
its Civil Service Retirement and
Insurance Records. The Privacy Act
System of Records designation is OPM/
Central-1. The following information
from this OPM Privacy Act System of
Records will be transmitted to RRB for
the approximately 2.5 million records in
the system: name, social security
number, date of birth, civil service claim
number, first potential month and year
of eligibility for civil service benefits,
first month, day, year of entitlement to
civil service benefits, amount of gross
civil service benefits, and effective date
(month, day, year) of civil service
amount, and where applicable, civil
service disability indicator, civil service
FICA covered month indicator, and civil
service total service months. The RRB
will match the Social Security number,
name, and date of birth contained in the
OPM file against the same fields in its
Master Benefit Files. The Privacy Act
System of Records designations for
these files is: RRB–26, ‘‘Payment, Rate
and Entitlement History File,’’ as
amended in 63 FR 28420 May 22, 1998.
For records that are matched, the RRB
will extract the civil service payment
information.
Inclusive Dates of the Matching
Program: The matching program will
become effective 40 days after a copy of
the agreement, as approved by the Data
Integrity Board of each agency, is sent
to Congress and the Office of
Management and Budget, or 30 days
after publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, whichever date is
E:\FR\FM\14JAN1.SGM

later. The matching program will
continue for 18 months after the
effective date and may be extended for
an additional 12 months, if the
conditions specified in 5 U.S.C.
552a(o)(2)(D) have been met.
The notice we are giving here is in
addition to any individual notice.
A copy of this notice has been or will
be furnished to both Houses of Congress
and the Office of Management and
Budget.

SUMMARY: As required by the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection
Act of 1988, RRB is issuing public notice of its use and intent to use,
in ongoing computer matching programs, civil service benefit and
payment information obtained from the Office of Personnel Management
(OPM).
The purpose of this notice is to advise individuals applying for or
receiving benefits under the Railroad Retirement Act of the use made by
RRB of this information obtained from OPM by means of a computer match.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties may comment on this publication by
writing to Ms. Beatrice Ezerski, Secretary to the Board, Railroad
Retirement Board, 844 North Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611-2092.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Lynn Harvey, Privacy Act Officer,

60611-2092, telephone number (312) 751-4869.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Computer Matching and Privacy Protection
Act of 1988, Public Law 100-503, requires a Federal agency
participating in a computer matching program to publish a notice
regarding the establishment of a matching program.
Name of Participating Agencies: Office of Personnel Management and
Railroad Retirement Board.
Purpose of the Match: The purpose of the match is to enable the RRB
to (1) identify affected RRB annuitants who are in receipt of a Federal
public pension benefit but who have not reported receipt of this
benefit to the RRB and (2) receive needed Federal public pension
benefit information for affected RRB annuitants more timely and
accurately. Previously the RRB relied on the affected annuitant to
report adjustments in the amounts of such public pension benefits.
Authority for Conducting the Match: Sections 3(a)(1), 4(a)(1) and
4(f)(1) of the Railroad Retirement Act require that the RRB reduce the
Railroad Retirement benefits of certain beneficiaries entitled to
Railroad Retirement employee and/or spouse/widow benefits who are also
entitled to a government pension based on their own non-covered
earnings. This reduction is referred to as Public Service Pension
offset. Section 224 of the Social Security Act provides for the
reduction of disability benefits when the disabled worker is also
entitled to a public disability benefit (PDB). This reduction is
referred to as PDB offset. A civil service disability benefit is
considered a PDB. Section 224(h)(1) requires any Federal agency to
provide RRB with information in its possession that RRB may require for
the purposes of making a timely determination of the amount of
reduction under section 224 of the Social Security Act. Pursuant to 5
U.S.C. Section 552a(b)(3) OPM has established routine uses to disclose
the subject information to RRB.
Categories of Records and Individuals Covered: The records to be
used in the match and the roles of the matching participants are
described as follows: OPM will provide RRB twice a year with a magnetic
tape file extracted from its annuity and survivor master file of its
Civil Service Retirement and Insurance Records. The Privacy Act System
of Records designation is OPM/Central-1. The following information from
this OPM Privacy Act System of Records will be transmitted to RRB for
the approximately 2.5 million records in the system: name, social
security number, date of birth, civil service claim number, first
potential month and year of eligibility for civil service benefits,
first month, day, year of entitlement to civil service benefits, amount
of gross civil service benefits, and effective date (month, day, year)
of civil service amount, and where applicable, civil service disability
indicator, civil service FICA covered month indicator, and civil
service total service months. The RRB will match the Social Security
number, name, and date of birth contained in the OPM file against the
same fields in its Master Benefit Files. The Privacy Act System of
Records designations for these files is: RRB-26, ``Payment, Rate and
Entitlement History File,'' as amended in 63 FR 28420 May 22, 1998. For
records that are matched, the RRB will extract the civil service
payment information.
Inclusive Dates of the Matching Program: The matching program will
become effective 40 days after a copy of the agreement, as approved by
the Data Integrity Board of each agency, is sent to Congress and the
Office of Management and Budget, or 30 days after publication of this
notice in the Federal Register, whichever date is
[[Page 2288]]
later. The matching program will continue for 18 months after the
effective date and may be extended for an additional 12 months, if the
