AGENCY:
Introduction
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended
(Privacy Act), the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration (NASA)
publishes this notice of a new system of
records entitled ‘‘The Office of Inspector
General Advanced Data Analytics
System (ADAS)’’ (System Number
NASA 10IGDA. This system will store
individually identifying information
from a variety of individuals who have
applied for or received grants, contracts,
loans, or payments from NASA,
including current and former employees
of NASA, contractors, and
subcontractors, and others whose
actions have affected NASA.
DATES: NASA seeks comment on the
new system of records described in this
notice, in accordance with the
requirements of the Privacy Act. We
must receive your comments about the
new system of records on or before
December 21, 2015. NASA filed a report
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4))
requires NASA to publish in the Federal
Register a notice of new system of
records maintained by NASA. NASA’s
regulations implementing the Privacy
Act are contained in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) in 14 CFR part 1212.
The Privacy Act applies to
information about an individual that is
maintained in a system of records from
which individually identifying
information is retrieved by a unique
identifier associated with each
individual, such as a name or social
security number. The information about
each individual is called a ‘‘record,’’
and the system, whether manual or
computer-driven, is called a ‘‘system of
records.’’ The Privacy Act requires each
agency to publish a system of records
notice in the Federal Register and to
submit reports to the Administrator of
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, OMB, the Chair of the House of
Representatives Committee on Oversight
and Government Reform, and the Chair
of the Senate Committee on Homeland
Security and Governmental Affairs,

whenever the agency publishes a new or
altered system of records.
Background of System of Records
ADAS is a system of records that will
store individually identifying
information from a variety of
individuals who have applied for or
received grants, contracts, cooperative
or other agreements, loans, or payments
from NASA. These individuals include:
Current and former employees of NASA;
consultants; contractors; grantees;
advisory committee members or others
who have received funds from NASA
for performing services or have
otherwise transacted business with or
affected NASA.
Information in this system will be
obtained from the following systems of
records maintained by NASA:
Biographical Records for Public Affairs
(System Number 10BRPA), NASA
Foreign National Management System
(System Number 10FNMS), Integrated
Enterprise Management Program
(IEMP)—Core Financial System (System
Number 10IEM1), NASA Education
Program Evaluation System (System
Number 10EDUA), Government Motor
Vehicle Operators Permit Records
(System Number 10GMVP), NASA
Guest Operations System (System
Number 10GOS), Inspector General
Investigations Case Files (System
Number 10IGIC), NASA Personnel and
Payroll Systems (System Number
10NPPS), Parking and Transit System
(System Number 10PATS), Security
Records System (System Number
10SECR), Special Personnel Records
(System Number 10SPER), Exchange
Records on Individuals (System Number
10XROI), Johnson Space Center
Exchange Activities Records (System
Number 72XOPR).
Information for the ADAS may also be
obtained from systems of records
maintained by other government
agencies. All applicable provisions of
the Privacy Act, including relevant
portions of the Computer Matching Act,
will be observed when obtaining and
maintaining such records in the ADAS.
This new system of records notice is
being established because it will involve
the new use of records covered by
existing NASA systems of records. This
new system of records will be used to
identify internal control weaknesses and
to identify system issues to improve
methods of data modeling and annual
audit planning. This system will
provide the NASA Office of Inspector
General (OIG) with access to a single
repository of data that currently resides
in many, different NASA systems of
records. The NASA OIG will conduct
data modeling on this data, using

statistical and mathematical techniques,
in order to predict anomalies indicating
suspicious or fraudulent activity.
Under the Inspector General Act of
1978, as amended, 5 U.S.C. Appendix,
Inspectors General, including the NASA
Inspector General, are responsible for
conducting, supervising, and
coordinating audits and investigations,
relating to programs and operations of
the Federal agency for which their office
is established. This system of records
facilitates OIG’s performance of this
statutory duty.

PURPOSE(S):
This system of records is maintained
for the general purpose of enabling OIG
to fulfill the requirements of section
(4)(a)(1) and (3) of the Inspector General
Act of 1978, as amended, which
requires OIG to provide policy direction
for and to conduct, supervise, and
coordinate audits and investigations
relating to the programs and operations
of NASA and to conduct, supervise and
coordinate activities for the purpose of
promoting economy and efficiency in
the administration of, or preventing and
detecting fraud and abuse in, the
programs and operations of NASA. This
system is maintained for the purpose of
improving the efficiency, quality, and
accuracy of existing data collected by
NASA. Records in this system will be
used to conduct data modeling for
indications of fraud, abuse and internal
control weaknesses concerning NASA
programs and operations. The result of
that data modeling may be used in the
conduct of audits, investigations,
inspections or other activities as
necessary to prevent and detect waste,
fraud and abuse and to promote
economy and efficiency in NASA
programs and operations.
ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE
SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND
THE PURPOSES FOR SUCH USES:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Introduction
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)) requires NASA to publish in
the Federal Register a notice of new system of records maintained by
NASA. NASA's regulations implementing the Privacy Act are contained in
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in 14 CFR part 1212.
The Privacy Act applies to information about an individual that is
maintained in a system of records from which individually identifying
information is retrieved by a unique identifier associated with each
individual, such as a name or social security number. The information
about each individual is called a ``record,'' and the system, whether
manual or computer-driven, is called a ``system of records.'' The
Privacy Act requires each agency to publish a system of records notice
in the Federal Register and to submit reports to the Administrator of
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, the Chair of the
House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform,
and the Chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and
Governmental Affairs, whenever the agency publishes a new or altered
system of records.
Background of System of Records
ADAS is a system of records that will store individually
identifying information from a variety of individuals who have applied
for or received grants, contracts, cooperative or other agreements,
loans, or payments from NASA. These individuals include: Current and
former employees of NASA; consultants; contractors; grantees; advisory
committee members or others who have received funds from NASA for
performing services or have otherwise transacted business with or
affected NASA.
Information in this system will be obtained from the following
systems of records maintained by NASA: Biographical Records for Public
Affairs (System Number 10BRPA), NASA Foreign National Management System
(System Number 10FNMS), Integrated Enterprise Management Program
(IEMP)--Core Financial System (System Number 10IEM1), NASA Education
Program Evaluation System (System Number 10EDUA), Government Motor
Vehicle Operators Permit Records (System Number 10GMVP), NASA Guest
Operations System (System Number 10GOS), Inspector General
Investigations Case Files (System Number 10IGIC), NASA Personnel and
Payroll Systems (System Number 10NPPS), Parking and Transit System
(System Number 10PATS), Security Records System (System Number 10SECR),
Special Personnel Records (System Number 10SPER), Exchange Records on
Individuals (System Number 10XROI), Johnson Space Center Exchange
Activities Records (System Number 72XOPR).
Information for the ADAS may also be obtained from systems of
records maintained by other government agencies. All applicable
provisions of the Privacy Act, including relevant portions of the
Computer Matching Act, will be observed when obtaining and maintaining
such records in the ADAS.
This new system of records notice is being established because it
will involve the new use of records covered by existing NASA systems of
records. This new system of records will be used to identify internal
control weaknesses and to identify system issues to improve methods of
data modeling and annual audit planning. This system will provide the
NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) with access to a single
repository of data that currently resides in many, different NASA
systems of records. The NASA OIG will conduct data modeling on this
data, using
[[Page 72746]]
statistical and mathematical techniques, in order to predict anomalies
indicating suspicious or fraudulent activity.
Under the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, 5 U.S.C.
Appendix, Inspectors General, including the NASA Inspector General, are
responsible for conducting, supervising, and coordinating audits and
investigations, relating to programs and operations of the Federal
agency for which their office is established. This system of records
facilitates OIG's performance of this statutory duty.

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
The Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, 5 U.S.C. Appendix.
PURPOSE(S):
This system of records is maintained for the general purpose of
enabling OIG to fulfill the requirements of section (4)(a)(1) and (3)
of the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, which requires OIG to
provide policy direction for and to conduct, supervise, and coordinate
audits and investigations relating to the programs and operations of
NASA and to conduct, supervise and coordinate activities for the
purpose of promoting economy and efficiency in the administration of,
or preventing and detecting fraud and abuse in, the programs and
operations of NASA. This system is maintained for the purpose of
improving the efficiency, quality, and accuracy of existing data
collected by NASA. Records in this system will be used to conduct data
modeling for indications of fraud, abuse and internal control
weaknesses concerning NASA programs and operations. The result of that
data modeling may be used in the conduct of audits, investigations,
inspections or other activities as necessary to prevent and detect
waste, fraud and abuse and to promote economy and efficiency in NASA
programs and operations.
ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES FOR SUCH USES:
The NASA OIG may disclose information contained in a record in this
system of records without the consent of the individual if the
[[Page 72749]]
disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the record was
collected, under the following routine uses. The NASA OIG may make
these disclosures on a case-by-case basis or, if it has met the
applicable requirements of the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection
Act of 1988, as amended, under a computer matching agreement.
(1) Responding to the White House, the Office of Management and
Budget, and other organizations in the Executive Office of the
President regarding matters inquired of; (2) disclosure to a

(8) disclosing to members of the CIGIE for the preparation of reports
to the President and Congress on the activities of the Inspectors
General; (9) disclosing to the public when: The matter under
investigation has become public knowledge, or when the Inspector
General determines that such disclosure is necessary to preserve
confidence in the integrity of the OIG investigative process, or to
demonstrate the accountability of NASA officers, or employees, or other
individuals covered by this system, unless the Inspector General
determines that disclosure of the specific information in the context
of a particular case would constitute an unwarranted invasion of
personal privacy; (10) disclosing to the news media and public when
there exists a legitimate public interest (e.g., to provide information
