SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. General
The Computer Matching and Privacy
Protection Act of 1988, (Pub. L. 100–
503), amended by the Privacy Act of
1974, (5 U.S.C. 552a) as amended,
requires a Federal agency participating
in a computer matching program to
publish a notice in the Federal Register
for all matching programs.
The Privacy Act, as amended,
regulates the use of computer matching
by Federal agencies when records
contained in a Privacy Act System of
Records are matched with other Federal,
State, or local government records. It
requires Federal agencies involved in
computer matching programs to:
(1) Negotiate written agreements with
the other agency or agencies
participating in the matching programs;
(2) Obtain the approval of the
matching agreement by the Data
Integrity Boards (DIB) of the
participating Federal agencies;
(3) Publish notice of the computer
matching program in the Federal
Register;
(4) Furnish detailed reports about
matching programs to Congress and
OMB;
(5) Notify applicants and beneficiaries
that their records are subject to
matching; and
(6) Verify match findings before
reducing, suspending, terminating, or
denying a person’s benefits or
payments. The last notice for this
matching program was published at 73
FR 31516–31517 (June 2, 2008).
B. RRB Computer Matches Subject to
the Privacy Act
We have taken appropriate action to
ensure that all of our computer
matching programs comply with the
requirements of the Privacy Act, as
amended.

A. Name of Participating Agencies
B. Purpose of the Matching Program
The RRB will, on a daily basis, obtain
from SSA a record of the wages reported
to SSA for persons who have applied for
benefits under the Railroad Retirement
Act and a record of the amount of
benefits paid by that agency to persons
who are receiving or have applied for
benefits under the Railroad Retirement
Act. The wage information is needed to
compute the amount of the tier I annuity
component provided by sections 3(a),
4(a) and 4(f) of the Railroad Retirement
Act (45 U.S.C. 231b(a), 45 U.S.C. 231c(a)
and 45 U.S.C. 231c(f)). The benefit
information is needed to adjust the tier
I annuity component for the receipt of
the Social Security benefit. This
information is available from no other
source.
Second, the RRB will receive from
SSA the amount of certain social
security benefits which the RRB pays on
behalf of SSA. Section 7(b)(2) of the
Railroad Retirement Act (45 U.S.C.
231f(b)(2)) provides that the RRB shall
make the payment of certain social
security benefits. The RRB also requires
this information in order to adjust the
amount of any annuity due to the
receipt of a social security benefit.
Section 10(a) of the Railroad Retirement
Act (45 U.S.C. 231i(a)) permits the RRB
to recover any overpayment from the
accrual of social security benefits. This
information is not available from any
other source.
Third, once a year the RRB will
receive from SSA a copy of SSA’s
Master Benefit Record for earmarked
RRB annuitants. Section 7(b)(7)) of the
Railroad Retirement Act (45 U.S.C.
231f(b)(7)) requires that SSA provide the
requested information. The RRB needs
this information to make the necessary
cost-of-living computation adjustments
quickly and accurately for those RRB
annuitants who are also SSA
beneficiaries.
SSA will receive weekly from RRB
earnings information for all railroad
employees. SSA will match the
identifying information of the records
furnished by the RRB against the
identifying information contained in its
Master Benefit Record and its Master
Earnings File. If there is a match, SSA
will use the RRB earnings to adjust the
amount of Social Security benefits in its
Annual Earnings Reappraisal Operation.
E:\FR\FM\10JNN1.SGM
10JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 111 / Monday, June 10, 2013 / Notices
This information is available from no
other source.
SSA will also receive daily from RRB
earnings information on selected
individuals. The transfer of information
may be initiated either by RRB or by
SSA. SSA needs this information to
determine eligibility to Social Security
benefits and, if eligibility is met, to
determine the benefit amount payable.
Section 18 of the Railroad Retirement
Act (45 U.S.C. 231q(2)) requires that
earnings considered as compensation
under the Railroad Retirement Act be
considered as wages under the Social
Security Act for the purposes of
determining entitlement under the
Social Security Act if the person has
less than 10 years of railroad service or
has 10 or more years of service but does
not have a current connection with the
railroad industry at the time of his/her
death.
C. Authority for Conducting the Match
Section 7(b)(7) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (45 U.S.C. 231f(b)(7))
provides that the Social Security
Administration shall supply
information necessary to administer the
Railroad Retirement Act. Sections 202,
205(o) and 215(f) of the Social Security
Act (42 U.S.C. 402, 405(o) and 415(f))
relate to benefit provisions, inclusion of
railroad compensation together with
wages for payment of benefits under
certain circumstances, and the recomputation of benefits.
