SUMMARY: U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE) is republishing the system of records notice
(SORN) for the Trade Transparency
Analysis and Research (TTAR) system.
No comments were received through the
Federal Register comment procedure.
TTAR contains trade and financial data
that is analyzed to generate leads for
and otherwise support ICE
investigations of trade-based money
laundering, contraband smuggling, trade
fraud, and other financial crimes. The
data in TTAR is generally maintained in
the ICE Data Analysis and Research
Trade Transparency System (DARTTS),
a software application and data
repository that conducts analysis of
trade and financial data to identify
statistically anomalous transactions that
may warrant investigation for money
laundering or other import-export
crimes. Additionally, a Privacy Impact
Assessment for DARTTS has been
posted on the Department’s privacy Web
site. (See www.dhs.gov/privacy and
follow the link to ‘‘Privacy Impact
Assessments.’’) A final rule is also being
published in this issue of the Federal
Register in which the Department
exempts portions of this system of
records from one or more provisions of
the Privacy Act because of criminal,
civil, and administrative enforcement
requirements.
DATES: The established system of
records was effective as of December 1,
2008, based upon the prior TTAR
system of records notice published on
October 31, 2008.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,
identified by docket number DHS–
2009–0050 by one of the following
methods:
• Federal e-Rulemaking Portal:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Trade Transparency Analysis and
Research (TTAR) system of records is
owned by the ICE Office of
Investigations Trade Transparency Unit
(TTU) and is maintained for the purpose
of enforcing criminal laws pertaining to
trade through trade transparency. Trade
transparency is the concept of
examining U.S. and foreign trade data to
identify anomalies in patterns of trade.
Such anomalies can indicate tradebased money laundering or other
import-export crimes that ICE is
responsible for investigating, such as
contraband smuggling, trafficking of
counterfeit goods, misclassification of
goods, and the over- or under-valuation
of goods to hide the proceeds of illegal
activities. TTAR contains trade and
financial data received from U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP),
U.S. Department of the Treasury
Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
(FinCEN), other Federal agencies and
foreign governments. TTAR data is
primarily related to international
commercial trade and contains little
information on the normal day-to-day
activities of individual consumers.
As part of the trade transparency
investigative process, ICE investigators
and analysts must understand the
relationships between importers and
exporters and the financing for a set of
trade transactions to determine which
transactions are suspicious and warrant
investigation. If performed manually,
this process often involves hours of
analysis of voluminous data for a
particular case or operation. To
automate and expedite this process, the
former U.S. Customs Service created the
Data Analysis and Research Trade
Transparency System (DARTTS), a
software application and data repository
that conducts analysis of trade and
financial data to identify statistically
anomalous transactions that may
warrant investigation for money
laundering or other import-export
crimes. DARTTS is specifically
designed to make this investigative
process more efficient by automating the
analysis and identification of anomalies
for the investigator. While DARTTS
does increase the efficiency of data
analysis, DARTTS does not allow ICE
