in ICE detention with entities that seek
to provide legal educational and
orientation programs. DHS is seeking

routine uses.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted on or before June 4, 2009.

I. Background
In accordance with the Privacy Act of
1974, the Department of Homeland
Security proposes to amend a U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE) system of records known as the
DHS/ICE–011 Removable Alien Records
System (RARS) (74 FR 5665, Jan. 30,
2009) to add two new routine uses.
RARS contains information about
individual aliens who have been
removed or are alleged to be removable
from the United States by DHS/ICE
under Federal immigration laws. These
new routine uses would allow ICE to
share information about aliens who are
in ICE detention during removal
proceedings with entities that seek to
provide legal educational and
orientation programs to persons in ICE
detention.
Specifically, proposed Routine Use Q
would permit ICE to share information
about aliens in removal proceedings
with the U.S. Department of Justice’s
Executive Office of Immigration Review
(EOIR) or their contractors, consultants,
or others performing or working on a
contract for EOIR, so that EOIR may
arrange for the provision of educational
services to those aliens under EOIR’s
Legal Orientation Program. New Routine
Use R would allow the sharing of the
same information with attorneys or legal
representatives for the purpose of
facilitating group presentations to aliens
in detention that will provide the aliens
with information about their rights
under U.S. immigration law and
procedures. Routine Use R would
support know-your-rights educational
programs that are sponsored by private
sector law firms and public interest
legal organizations, but are not
associated with the EOIR Legal
Orientation Program.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act embodies fair
information principles in a statutory
framework governing the means by
which the United States Government
collects, maintains, uses, and
disseminates individuals’ records. The
Privacy Act applies to information that
is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’
A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any
records under the control of an agency
for which information is retrieved by
the name of an individual or by some
identifying number, symbol, or other
PO 00000
Frm 00049
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
20719
identifying particular assigned to the
individual. In the Privacy Act, an
individual is defined to encompass
United States citizens and lawful
permanent residents. As a matter of
policy, DHS extends administrative
Privacy Act protections to all
individuals where systems of records
maintain information on U.S. citizens,
lawful permanent residents, and
visitors. Individuals may request access
to their own records that are maintained
in a system of records in the possession
or under the control of DHS by
complying with DHS Privacy Act
regulations, 6 CFR Part 5.
The Privacy Act requires each agency
to publish in the Federal Register a
description denoting the type and
character of each system of records that
the agency maintains, and the routine
uses that are contained in each system
in order to make agency record keeping
practices transparent, to notify
individuals regarding the uses of their
records, and to assist individuals to
more easily find such files within the
agency. Below is the description of the
DHS/ICE Removable Alien Records
System.
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r),
DHS has provided a report of this
system of records to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) and to
Congress.
