SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FRTIB-2, Personnel Security Files, updates 
Agency systems of records so that they are compliant with both HSPD-12

and the information stored on the cards. FRTIB-10 may include records 
maintained by agencies of individuals who entered and exited facilities 
or accessed systems.
    The proposed system reports, as required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), of 
the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, were submitted to the House 
Committee on Government Reform, the Senate Committee on Homeland 
Security and Government Affairs, and the Office of Management and

and fitness for service of applicants for federal employment and 
contract positions, including students, interns, or volunteers to the 
extent their duties require access to federal facilities, information, 
systems, or applications. The records may be used to document security 
violations and supervisory actions taken.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    To the Department of Justice when: (a) The FRTIB; (b) any employee 
of the FRTIB in his or her official capacity; (c) any employee of the 
FRTIB in his or her individual capacity where the FRTIB or the 
Department of Justice has agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the 
United States Government, is a party to litigation or has an interest 
in such litigation, and by careful review, the FRTIB determines that 
the records are both relevant and necessary to the litigation and the 
use of such records by DOJ is therefore deemed by the FRTIB to be for a 
purpose compatible with the purpose for which the FRTIB collected the 
records.
    To a court or adjudicative body in a proceeding when: (a) The 
FRTIB; (b) any employee of the FRTIB in his or her official capacity; 
(c) any employee of the FRTIB in his or her individual capacity where 
the FRTIB or the Department of Justice has agreed to represent the 
employee; or (d) the United States Government, is a party to litigation 
or has an interest in such litigation, and by careful review, the FRTIB 
determines that the records are both relevant and necessary to the 
litigation and the use of such records is therefore deemed by the FRTIB 
to be for a purpose that is compatible with the purpose for which the 
FRTIB collected the records.
    Except as noted on Forms SF-85, SF-85P, SF-86, or FRTIB-2008, when 
a record on its face, or in conjunction with other records, indicates a 
violation or potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal, or 
regulatory in nature, and whether arising by general statute or 
particular program statute, or by regulation, rule, or order issued 
pursuant thereto, disclosure may be made to the appropriate public 
authority, whether Federal, foreign, State, local, or tribal, or 
otherwise, responsible for enforcing, investigating or prosecuting such 
violation or charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, or 
rule, regulation, or order issued pursuant thereto, if the information 
disclosed is relevant to any enforcement, regulatory, investigative or 
prosecutorial responsibility of the receiving entity.
    To a Member of Congress or to a Congressional staff member in 
response to an inquiry of the Congressional office made at the written 
request of the constituent about whom the record is maintained.

General Services Administration for records management inspections 
conducted under 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.

to assist the agency in the performance of a contract service, grant, 
cooperative agreement, or other activity related to this system of 
records and who need to have access to the records in order to perform 
their activity. Recipients shall be required to comply with the 
requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a.
    To any source or potential source from which information is 
requested in the course of an investigation concerning the retention of 
an employee or other personnel action (other than hiring), or the 
retention of a security clearance, contract, grant, license, or other 
benefit, to the extent necessary to identify the individual, inform the 
source of the nature and purpose of the investigation, and to identify 
the type of information requested.
    To a Federal, State, local, foreign, or tribal or other public 
authority the fact that this system of records contains information 
relevant to the retention of an employee, the retention of a security 
clearance, the letting of a contract, or the issuance or retention of a 
license, grant, or other benefit. The other agency or licensing 
organization may then make a request supported by the written consent 
of the individual for the entire record if it so chooses. No disclosure 
will be made unless the information has been determined to be 
sufficiently reliable to support a referral to another office within 
the agency or to another Federal agency for criminal, civil, 
administrative personnel or regulatory action.
    To the news media or the general public, factual information the 
disclosure of which would be in the public interest and which would not 
constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, consistent with 
Freedom of Information Act standards.
    To a Federal, State, or local agency, or other appropriate entities 
or individuals, or through established liaison channels to selected 
foreign governments, in order to enable an intelligence agency to carry 
out its responsibilities under the National Security Act of 1947 as

successor order, applicable national security directives, or classified
