systems.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

keep an up-to-date accounting of its
system of records publication. The new
system proposal will incorporate
Federal privacy requirements and HUD
policy requirements. The Privacy Act
provides certain safeguards for an
individual against an invasion of
personal privacy by requiring Federal
agencies to protect records contained in
an agency system of records from
unauthorized disclosure, by ensuring
that information is current and collected
only for its intended use, and by
providing adequate safeguards to
prevent misuse of such information.
Additionally, this notice demonstrates
the Department’s focus on industry best
practices in protecting the personal
privacy of the individuals covered by
each system notification. This notice
states the name and location of the
record system, the authority for and
manner of its operations, the categories
of individuals that it covers, the type of
records that it contains, the sources of
the information for those records, the
routine uses made of the records, and
the type of exemption in place for the
records. In addition, this notice includes
the business address of the HUD
officials who will inform interested
persons of the procedures whereby they
may gain access to and/or request
amendments to records pertaining to
them.
This publication does meet the
threshold requirements for a new
system and a report was submitted to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), the Senate Committee on
Homeland Security and Governmental
Affairs, and the House Committee on
Government Reform as instructed by
