U.S. Census Bureau,
Department of Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of Amendment, Privacy
Act System of Records; COMMERCE/
CENSUS–8, Statistical Administrative
Records System.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, Title
5 United States Code (U.S.C.) 552a(e)(4)
and (11); and Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Circular A–130,
Appendix I, ‘‘Federal Agency
Responsibilities for Maintaining
Records About Individuals’’, the
Department of Commerce is issuing an
amendment to a notice of intent to
amend the system of records under
COMMERCE/CENSUS–8, Statistical
Administrative Records System
published previously on March 25,
2009. This amendment would change
certain provisions concerning the
purpose of the system of records,
categories of individuals and records
covered by the system, retrievability,
and safeguards for the records in the
system; in addition to minor
administrative updates. Accordingly,
the COMMERCE/CENSUS–8, Statistical
Administrative Records System notice
published in the Federal Register on
January 20, 2000 (65 FR 3202), is
amended as below. We invite public

comment on the system amendment
announced in this publication.
DATES: Comment Date: To be
considered, written comments on the
proposed amended system must be
submitted on or before November 26,
2010.
Effective Date: Unless comments are
received, the amended system of records
will become effective as proposed on
the date of publication of a subsequent
notice in the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Please address comments
to: Chief Privacy Officer, Privacy Office,
Room HQ—8H168, U.S. Census Bureau,
Washington, DC 20233–3700.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
25, 2009, the Department of Commerce
published and requested comments on a
proposed Privacy Act System of Records
notice entitled COMMERCE/CENSUS–8,
Statistical Administrative Records
System (74 FR 12834). No comments
were received by Commerce, but that
notice was not published as final
because a careful review of the proposed
changes revealed that two technical
changes were needed and two other
program-related changes were needed
because of work associated with the
Statistical Administrative System
(StARS).
The first proposed technical change is
the insertion of a reference to 13 U.S.C.
8(b) after ‘‘* * * in accordance with
Title 13, United States Codes (U.S.C.)
* * *’’ under the Supplementary
Information heading to more thoroughly
reflect the authorities under which the
Census Bureau collects data including
our reimbursable work for other
agencies and the authority for the
release of summary tabulations. The
second proposed change is the insertion
of the phrase ‘‘* * * in accordance with
the Department’s rules which appear in
15 CFR part 4 subpart B and * * *’’
after ‘‘This exemption is made’’ under
the section entitled ‘‘Exemptions
Claimed for System.’’ This change is
being made to more accurately convey
that the Census Bureau, as part of the
Department of Commerce, is subject to
Commerce Department rules.
The first of the two changes made to
program-related provisions of the March
25, 2009 notice is to language that
attempted to clearly describe the strict
limitations to be placed on access to
records containing direct identifiers by
sworn Census Bureau staff. In that
notice, the Census Bureau proposed a
change to the access limitation
provision from ‘‘a limited number’’ to
‘‘fewer than ten’’ under the heading
‘‘Categories of Records in the System;
Retrievability’’. This change was
proposed to describe the proposed
