Exemption of Records Systems Under the Privacy Act
The Department of Justice (the Department or DOJ) proposes to amend its Privacy Act regulations for two systems of records entitled the ``Drug Enforcement Task Force Evaluation and Reporting System, JUSTICE/DAG-003,'' last published, March 10, 1992 in the Federal Register, and the ``Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force Fusion Center and International Organized Crime Intelligence and Operations Center System, JUSTICE/CRM-028,'' last published, June 3, 2009 in the Federal Register. These Privacy Act regulations are being amended to reflect a recent reorganization of the Department establishing the Executive Office for OCDETF as a separate DOJ component, and transferring responsibility for these systems from the Office of the Deputy Attorney General (ODAG) and the Criminal Division to this component. In light of this departmental reorganization, JUSTICE/DAG- 003 is being renumbered to JUSTICE/OCDETF-001 and will be renamed as the ``Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces Management Information System (OCDETF MIS).'' JUSTICE/CRM-028 is being renumbered to JUSTICE/OCDETF-002 but will retain its system name. When under the responsibility of ODAG and the Criminal Division, these systems were exempted from certain provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974 by exemptions placed in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) sections containing exemptions for ODAG's and the Criminal Division's Privacy Act systems. These proposed amendments will remove references to these systems from the CFR sections for ODAG and Criminal Division exemptions and add a new section for OCDETF exemptions. Public comment is invited.
Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-130, notice is hereby given that the Department of Justice (Department or DOJ), Executive Office for OCDETF, proposes to amend an existing system of records notice (SORN) entitled, ``Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force Fusion Center and International Organized Crime Intelligence and Operations Center System,'' JUSTICE/CRM-028, last published at 74 FR 26733, June 3, 2009. This amendment reflects a reorganization of the Department of Justice establishing the Executive Office for OCDETF as a new component and the resulting transfer of responsibility for this system of records from the Criminal Division to the Executive Office for OCDETF. Accordingly, the Executive Office for OCDETF is changing the system number from JUSTICE/CRM-028 to JUSTICE/OCDETF-002, and making revisions to reflect the Executive Office for OCDETF's own record-keeping practices and the overall modernization and technological changes of the system. Accordingly, this modified SORN will replace the SORN for JUSTICE/CRM-028. In addition, this amended SORN updates and modifies the previous SORN as follows: In the Categories of Individuals Covered by the System, a new category has been added for individuals who seek to or in fact do enter, exit, or transit the border of the United States and individuals associated with any such travel, including owners/lessees of the conveyances used; the Categories of Records in the System includes additional examples of records that may be associated with this new category of individuals; Executive Office for OCDETF contact information has been updated; and various other minor revisions have been made.
