functions. USCIS conducted this PIA

personally identifiable information (PII).
System: Directory Services and Email
System.
Component: DHS Wide.
Date of approval: January 14, 2009.
The U.S. Coast Guard manages and
operates the Directory Services
Electronic Mail System (DSES). DSES
currently handles all e-mail traffic in,
out, and between DHS, its Components,

directory of users’ official contact

processing, storage, and transmission of
PII within the DSES system.

The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) conducts namebased Security Threat Assessments
(STA) and fingerprint-based Criminal
History Records Checks (CHRCs) on
pilots who operate aircraft and apply for
privileges to fly to or from the three
General Aviation airports in the
Washington, DC restricted flight zones
(Potomac Airfield, Washington
Executive/Hyde Field, and College Park
Airport), otherwise known as the
Maryland Three (MD–3) program, and
for the Airport Security Coordinator
(ASC) at a MD–3 airport. For the STA
process, TSA compares the biographical

CHRC, TSA forwards the fingerprints to
the Federal Bureau of Investigation,

systems to this PIA:
