Type: Notice
Date: 2015-03-30
Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Agencies and Commissions
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has conducted a comprehensive review of all its Privacy Act systems of records notices. The NRC is proposing to adopt a new routine use as a Prefatory Statement of General Routine Uses that will authorize disclosure of information to the National Archives and Records Administration, Office of Government Information Services (OGIS), to the extent necessary to allow OGIS to fulfill its responsibilities to review administrative agency policies, procedures, and compliance with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and offer of mediation services to resolve disputes between persons making FOIA requests and administrative agencies. The NRC is also proposing revisions to NRC 11, ``General Personnel Records (Official Personnel Folder and Related Records) NRC;'' and NRC 22, ``Personnel Performance AppraisalsNRC.'' The proposed revisions will add a routine use to each of these systems of records that will authorize the disclosure of information to officials of federally-recognized labor organizations when relevant and necessary to their duties of exclusive representation concerning personnel policies, practices, and matters affecting working conditions. The NRC is revising the routine use for NRC 18, ``Office of the Inspector General OIG Investigative RecordsNRC. The proposed revision is to reflect that, under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014, the Inspector General of the NRC is authorized in 2014 and subsequent years to exercise the same authorities with respect to the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, as the Inspector General exercises under the Inspector General Act of 1978 with respect to the NRC.
