The SF 87 is completed by individuals who are under consideration for appointment to or retention in a Federal position or performance of work on behalf of the Government. The SF 87 fingerprint chart is used in background investigations to establish that such persons are eligible for logical and physical access to Government facilities and systems; suitable or fit to perform work for, on behalf of, the Federal Government; suitable for employment or retention in a public trust position, eligible for employment or retention in a national security position, and/or eligible for access to classified national security information.

Due to the SF 87 form’s small size and the fact that it may be maintained in multiple systems of records, it does not list all potentially applicable routine uses under the Privacy Act. Accordingly 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(3)(C) requires that an agency issuing the SF 87 form must also give the subject a copy of the routine uses for the applicable system of records PO 00000 Frm 00094 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 18657 and FBI’s Privacy Act Notice and Privacy Rights.

DoDEA commented that without using Fingerprint Chart Standard Form 87, an alternative form or process should be made available to comply with the Crime Control Act of 1990 (Act, and House Bill (HB) 737). OPM did not accept DoDEA’s recommendation. OPM already does provide for the electronic collection of fingerprints. Use of the SF 87 is limited only to situations where electronic collection of fingerprints cannot be utilized. Analysis Agency: Federal Investigative Services, U.S. Office of Personnel Management.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that OPM has submitted 
to OMB a request for review and clearance of a revised information 
collection, control number 3206-0150, Fingerprint Chart Standard Form 
87, SF 87. The public has an additional 30-day opportunity to comment.
    The SF 87 is a fingerprint card, which is utilized to conduct a 
national criminal history check, which is a component of the background 
investigation. The SF 87 is completed by individuals who are under 
consideration for appointment to or retention in a Federal position or 
performance of work on behalf of the Government. The SF 87 fingerprint 
chart is used in background investigations to establish that such 
persons are eligible for logical and physical access to Government 
facilities and systems; suitable or fit to perform work for, on behalf 
of, the Federal Government; suitable for employment or retention in a 
public trust position, eligible for employment or retention in a 
national security position, and/or eligible for access to classified 
national security information. The SF 87 form is only utilized when a 
hardcopy fingerprint chart must be obtained, as opposed to the 
electronic collection of fingerprints.
    Due to the SF 87 form's small size and the fact that it may be 
maintained in multiple systems of records, it does not list all 
potentially applicable routine uses under the Privacy Act. Accordingly 
5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(3)(C) requires that an agency issuing the SF 87 form 
must also give the subject a copy of the routine uses for the 
applicable system of records and FBI's Privacy Act Notice and Privacy 
Rights. OPM proposes to add clarifying language to the Purpose, 
Authority, and Privacy Statement to further explain uses of the form.
    The 60-day Federal Register Notice was published on January 19, 
2016 (81 FR 2924). One comment was received from an individual from the 
Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA). DoDEA commented that 
without using Fingerprint Chart Standard Form 87, an alternative form 
or process should be made available to comply with the Crime Control 
Act of 1990 (Act, and House Bill (HB) 737). OPM did not accept DoDEA's 
recommendation. OPM already does provide for the electronic collection 
of fingerprints. Use of the SF 87 is limited only to situations where 
electronic collection of fingerprints cannot be utilized.
