Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 110 / Thursday, June 7, 2012 / Proposed Rules
For the reasons stated in the
preamble, DHS proposes to amend
Chapter I of Title 6, Code of Federal
Regulations, as follows:
PART 5—DISCLOSURE OF RECORDS
AND INFORMATION
1. The authority citation for Part 5
continues to read as follows:
Authority: Public Law 107–296, 116 Stat.
2135; (6 U.S.C. 101 et seq.); 5 U.S.C. 301.
Subpart A also issued under 5 U.S.C. 552.
Subpart B also issued under 5 U.S.C. 552a.
2. Add at the end of Appendix C to
Part 5, the following new paragraph
‘‘68’’:
Appendix C to Part 5—DHS Systems of
Records Exempt From the Privacy Act
wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
*
*
*
*
*
68. The DHS/CBP—017 Analytical
Framework for Intelligence (AFI) System of
Records consists of electronic and paper
records and will be used by DHS and its
components. The DHS/CBP—017 Analytical
Framework for Intelligence (AFI) System of
Records is a repository of information held
by DHS to enhance DHS’s ability to: identify,
apprehend, and/or prosecute individuals
who pose a potential law enforcement or
security risk; aid in the enforcement of the
customs and immigration laws, and other
laws enforced by DHS at the border; and
enhance United States security. This system
also supports certain other DHS programs
whose functions include, but are not limited
to, the enforcement of civil and criminal
laws; investigations, inquiries, and
proceedings there under; and national
security and intelligence activities. The DHS/
CBP—017 Analytical Framework for
Intelligence (AFI) System of Records contains
information that is collected by, on behalf of,
in support of, or in cooperation with DHS
and its components and may contain
personally identifiable information collected
by other federal, state, local, tribal, foreign,
or international government agencies. The
Secretary of Homeland Security has
exempted this system from certain provisions
of the Privacy Act as follows:
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(j)(2), the
system is exempt from 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3)
and (c)(4), (e)(1), (e)(2), (e)(3), (e)(4)(G),
(e)(4)(H), (e)(4)(I), (e)(5), (e)(8), (f), and (g).
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(j)(2), the
system (except for any records that were
ingested by AFI where the source system of
records already provides access and/or
amendment under the Privacy Act) is exempt
from 5 U.S.C. 552a(d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3), and
(d)(4).
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(1), the
system is exempt from 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3);
(e)(1), (e)(4)(G), (e)(4)(H), (e)(4)(I); and (f).
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(1), the
system is exempt from (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3),
and (d)(4).
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2), the
system is exempt from 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3);
(e)(1), (e)(4)(G), (e)(4)(H), (e)(4)(I); and (f).
• Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2), the
system (except for any records that were

Jkt 226001
ingested by AFI where the source system of
records already provides access and/or
amendment under the Privacy Act) is exempt
from (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3), and (d)(4).
Exemptions from these particular subsections
are justified, on a case-by-case basis to be
determined at the time a request is made, for
the following reasons:
(a) From subsection (c)(3) and (4)
(Accounting for Disclosures) because release
of the accounting of disclosures could alert
the subject of an investigation of an actual or
potential criminal, civil, or regulatory
violation to the existence of that investigation
and reveal investigative interest on the part
of DHS as well as the recipient agency.
Disclosure of the accounting would therefore
present a serious impediment to law
enforcement efforts and/or efforts to preserve
national security. Disclosure of the
accounting would also permit the individual
who is the subject of a record to impede the
investigation, to tamper with witnesses or
evidence, and to avoid detection or
apprehension, which would undermine the
entire investigative process.
(b) From subsection (d) (Access to Records)
because access to the records contained in
this system of records could inform the
subject of an investigation of an actual or
potential criminal, civil, or regulatory
violation to the existence of that investigation
and reveal investigative interest on the part
of DHS or another agency. Access to the
records could permit the individual who is
the subject of a record to impede the
investigation, to tamper with witnesses or
evidence, and to avoid detection or
apprehension. Amendment of the records
could interfere with ongoing investigations
and law enforcement activities and would
impose an unreasonable administrative
burden by requiring investigations to be
continually reinvestigated. In addition,
permitting access and amendment to such
information could disclose security-sensitive
information that could be detrimental to
homeland security.
(c) From subsection (e)(1) (Relevancy and
Necessity of Information) because in the
course of investigations into potential
violations of federal law, the accuracy of
information obtained or introduced
occasionally may be unclear, or the
information may not be strictly relevant or
necessary to a specific investigation. In the
interests of effective law enforcement and
national security, it is appropriate to retain
all information that may aid in establishing
patterns of unlawful activity.
(d) From subsection (e)(2) (Collection of
Information from Individuals) because
requiring that information be collected from
the subject of an investigation would alert the
subject to the nature or existence of the
investigation, thereby interfering with that
investigation and related law enforcement
and national security activities.
(e) From subsection (e)(3) (Notice to
Individuals) because providing such detailed
information could impede law enforcement
and national security by compromising the
existence of a confidential investigation or
reveal the identity of witnesses or
confidential informants.
(f) From subsections (e)(4)(G), (e)(4)(H),
and (e)(4)(I) (Agency Requirements) and (f)
PO 00000
Frm 00023
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
33685
(Agency Rules), because portions of this
system are exempt from the individual access
provisions of subsection (d) for the reasons
noted above, and therefore DHS is not
required to establish requirements, rules, or
procedures with respect to such access.
Providing notice to individuals with respect
to existence of records pertaining to them in
the system of records or otherwise setting up
procedures pursuant to which individuals
may access and view records pertaining to
themselves in the system would undermine
investigative efforts and reveal the identities
of witnesses, and potential witnesses, and
confidential informants.
(g) From subsection (e)(5) (Collection of
Information) because with the collection of
information for law enforcement purposes, it
is impossible to determine in advance what
information is accurate, relevant, timely, and
complete. Compliance with subsection (e)(5)
would preclude DHS agents from using their
investigative training and exercise of good
judgment to both conduct and report on
investigations.
(h) From subsection (e)(8) (Notice on
Individuals) because compliance would
interfere with DHS’s ability to obtain, serve,
and issue subpoenas, warrants, and other law
enforcement mechanisms that may be filed
under seal and could result in disclosure of
investigative techniques, procedures, and
evidence.
(i) From subsection (g)(1) (Civil Remedies)
to the extent that the system is exempt from
other specific subsections of the Privacy Act.

Proposed Rulemaking distribution
System, which describes the application
procedure.
The Proposal
The FAA is considering an
amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish
Class E airspace at Arcadia, FL,
providing the controlled airspace
required to support the RNAV GPS
standard instrument approach
procedures for Arcadia Municipal
Airport. Controlled airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
would be established for the safety and
management of IFR operations at the
airport.
Class E airspace designations are
published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011,
and effective September 15, 2011, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.
The FAA has determined that this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current. It,
therefore, (1) Is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant
rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February
26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant
preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will
only affect air traffic procedures and air
navigation, it is certified that this
proposed rule, when promulgated,
would not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
The FAA’s authority to issue rules
regarding aviation safety is found in
Title 49 of the United States Code.
Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator.
Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the
agency’s authority. This proposed
rulemaking is promulgated under the
authority described in Subtitle VII, Part,
A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that
section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to assign the use
of airspace necessary to ensure the
safety of aircraft and the efficient use of
airspace. This proposed regulation is
within the scope of that authority as it
would establish Class E airspace at
Arcadia Municipal Airport, Arcadia, FL.
This proposal will be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

describes the application procedure.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Fort Morgan
Municipal Airport, Fort Morgan, CO.
Controlled airspace is necessary to
accommodate aircraft using the new
RNAV (GPS) standard instrument
approach procedure at Fort Morgan
Municipal Airport. This action would
enhance the safety and management of
aircraft operations at the airport.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005, of FAA
Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011,
and effective September 15, 2011, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in this Order.
The FAA has determined this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation; (1)
Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not
a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3)
does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated
impact is so minimal. Since this is a
routine matter that will only affect air
traffic procedures and air navigation, it
is certified this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities

Flexibility Act.

FAA Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15,
2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore, (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This proposed rulemaking is promulgated under the authority
described in Subtitle VII, Part, A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under
that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign
the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This proposed regulation is within the scope
of that authority as it would establish Class E airspace at Arcadia
Municipal Airport, Arcadia, FL.
This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
