A. General

    The Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 (Public

the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-508) further 
amended the Privacy Act regarding protections for such persons.
    The Privacy Act, as amended, regulates the use of computer matching 
by federal agencies when records in a system of records are matched 
with other federal, state, or local government records. It requires 
federal agencies involved in computer matching programs to:

Boards of the participating federal agencies;
    (3) Publish notice of the computer matching program in the Federal
