Background In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) proposes to update and reissue a current DHS system of records titled, ‘‘DHS/ CBP–016 Nonimmigrant Information System System of Records.’’ DHS is updating and reissuing a DHS/ CBP system of records under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) to reflect CBP’s current and future practices regarding the processing of foreign nationals entering the United States. CBP inspects all persons applying for admission to the United States. As part of this inspection process, CBP establishes the identity, nationality, and admissibility of persons crossing the border and may create a border crossing record, which would be covered by DHS/CBP–007 Border Crossing Information System of Records Notice (78 FR 31958, published on May 28, 2013), or additional CBP records, which would be covered by the DHS/CBP–011 TECS System of Records Notice (73 FR 77799, published December 19, 2008) during this process. Similarly, CBP has authority to keep records of departures from the United States. In addition to information collected from the alien during the inspection process, CBP primarily uses two immigration forms to collect information from nonimmigrant aliens as they arrive in the United States: The I–94, Arrival/Departure Record; and the PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 I–94W, Nonimmigrant Visa Waiver Arrival/Departure Form (for aliens applying for admission under the visa waiver program (VWP)). Separately, Canadian nationals that travel to the U.S. as tourists or for business and Mexican nationals who possess a nonresident alien Mexican Border Crossing Card are not required to complete an I–94 upon arrival. However, their information is maintained in Nonimmigrant and Immigrant Information System (NIIS). Additionally, DHS/CBP implemented an Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) to permit nationals of VWP countries to submit their biographic and admissibility information online in advance of their travel to the United States. Applicants under this program will have access to their accounts so that they may check the status of their ESTA and make limited amendments. ESTA is covered by privacy documentation including the DHS/CBP Electronic System for Travel Authorization SORN (79 FR 65414, published on November 3, 2014). In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 and as part of DHS’s ongoing effort to review and update legacy system of record notices, DHS/CBP proposes to update and reissue the following system of records notice, DHS/CBP–016 Nonimmigrant and Information System (73 FR 77739, published December 19, 2008), as a DHS/CBP system of records notice titled, DHS/CBP–016 Nonimmigrant and Immigrant Information System System of Records. DHS/CBP changed the system name to reflect changes to the system, changed the security classification to reflect storage of records on a classified network, changed the system location to reflect a new location, changed the purpose to allow for replication of data for analysis and vetting, updated the storage due to the change in security classification, updated the retention and disposal to reflect that records will follow the same retention schedule, and changed the notification procedure to reflect that DHS/CBP will now also review replicated records. Consistent with DHS’s information sharing mission, information stored in the DHS/CBP–016 Nonimmigrant and Immigrant Information System System of Records may be shared with other DHS components that have a need to know the information to carry out their national security, law enforcement, immigration, intelligence, or other homeland security functions. In addition, information may be shared with appropriate federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, foreign, or international government agencies E:\FR\FM\13MRN1.SGM 13MRN1
