ACTION: Notice of amendments to six existing systems of records; introduction of a new system of records; and rescindment of eleven systems of records. AGENCY: The Privacy Act of 1974 requires that each agency publish notice of all the systems of records that it maintains. This document proposes the amendment of six of the FLRA’s existing systems of records, the introduction of a new system of records, and the rescindment of eleven systems of records that are no longer in use or that are covered by government-wide system of records notices. With the proposed addition and rescindment of systems, the FLRA will maintain seven systems of records. Additional details are provided under Supplementary Information, below. DATES: This action will be effective without further notice on November 27, 2017 unless comments are received that would result in contrary determinations. ADDRESSES: Mail or deliver comments to Gina K. Grippando, Counsel for Regulatory and Public Affairs, Federal Labor Relations Authority, 1400 K Street NW., Washington, DC 20424; or email EngagetheFLRA@flra.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the FLRA hereby publishes notice of updates to its systems of records. See 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4). This document proposes the amendment of six systems of records, the introduction of a new system of records, and the rescindment of eleven systems of records, bringing the FLRA’s total number of systems of records to seven. This notice first provides a summary of the six amended systems of records, the new system of records, and the eleven systems of records proposed for rescindment, and then provides the text of each of the amended and new systems of records. 1. In the first proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-2-Appeal and Administrative Review Records by updating the system location and the organizational title and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that information is maintained on electronic and paper media, and that electronic records are maintained in a passwordprotected automated system, with access limited to personnel whose duties require access. In addition, the system is being amended to reflect that burning is no longer a method of record disposal. 2. In the second proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-3Complaints and Inquiries Records by updating the system location and the organizational title and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that information is maintained on electronic and paper media, and that electronic records are maintained in a passwordprotected automated system, with access limited to personnel whose duties require access. In addition, the system is being amended to reflect that burning is no longer a method of record disposal. 3. In the third proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-6Grievance Records by updating the system location and the organizational title and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that information is maintained on electronic and paper media, and that electronic records are maintained in a password-protected automated system, with access limited to personnel whose duties require access. In addition, the system is being amended to: (1) Reflect that burning no longer is a method of E:\FR\FM\27OCN1.SGM 27OCN1 asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2017 / Notices record disposal; and (2) change the record-retention period from three years after closing of the case to four to seven years after closing of the case, as required by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) General Records Schedule 30, item 30a. 4. In the fourth proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-10Employee Locator Card Files by updating the system name to FLRA/ Internal-10-Organization Management and Locator System, the system location, and the organizational title and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that information is maintained on electronic media. 5. In the fifth amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-15-Pay, Leave and Travel Records by amending its name to FLRA/ Internal-15-Personnel and Payroll System Records and removing all references to travel records, which FLRA no longer maintains. Rather, the FLRA’s travel records are maintained in a system operated by a contractor and, therefore, are covered by a governmentwide System of Records Notice: GSA/ GOVT–4, Contracted Travel Services Program. In addition, the FLRA proposes to amend this system of records to reflect updates to FLRA payroll and personnel data processes and services. The FLRA maintains FLRA/Internal-15-Personnel and Payroll System Records to manage payroll and personnel data for FLRA employees, ensure proper payment of salary and benefits to FLRA personnel, and track time worked and leave or other absences for reporting and compliance purposes. The FLRA has entered into an agreement with the Department of the Interior (DOI) Interior Business Center (IBC), a Federal agency shared service provider, to provide payroll and personnel processing services through DOI’s Federal Personnel and Payroll System (FPPS). Although DOI will host and process payroll and personnel data on behalf of the FLRA, the FLRA will retain ownership and control over its own data. The FLRA has included a routine use in this notice to permit sharing of records with DOI for hosting and support services. Individuals seeking access to their records owned and maintained by the FLRA must submit their requests to the FLRA as outlined in the Record Access Procedures, Contesting Record Procedures, and Notification Procedures sections in the amended SORN. 6. In the sixth amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes to amend VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:54 Oct 26, 2017 Jkt 244001 FLRA/OIG-1-Office of the Inspector General Investigative Files by updating the system location and the organizational title and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that information is maintained on electronic media. In addition, the system is being amended to reflect that the FLRA obtained approval from NARA to modify the system’s records-retention period such that only certain types of records must be retained permanently. Also, the contact for notification, record access, and contesting record procedures has been changed from the Office of the Solicitor to the Office of the Inspector General. 7. The new system of records is entitled FLRA/Internal-17-Freedom of Information Act Request and Appeal Files. This system contains records concerning the FLRA’s Freedom of Information Act program. 8. The FLRA proposes to rescind eleven systems of records that are no longer in use by the FLRA or that are covered by government-wide system of records notices. a. The first system of records, FLRA/ Internal-1-Employee Occupational Health Program Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no longer collects or retains data on FLRA employees using health services under the Federal Employees Group Health Program. Instead, the Federal Occupational Health (FOH)/Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is now the custodian of these records, and those records are covered under OPM/ GOVT-10 Employee Medical File System Records. b. The second system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-4-Applicants for Employment Records, is proposed for rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-5 Recruiting, Examining, and Placement Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. c. The third system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-5-Preemployment Inquiry Records, is proposed for rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-5 Recruiting, Examining, and Placement Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. d. The fourth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-7-Employee Incentive Award and Recognition Files, is proposed for rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-2 Employee Performance File System Records, and a PO 00000 Frm 00023 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 49803 separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. e. The fifth system of records, FLRA/ Internal-8-Employee Assistance Program Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no longer collects or retains data on FLRA employees using Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services. Instead, FOH/HHS is the custodian of these records, and it has published HHS System of Records Notice, 09–90–0010, EAP Records, which covers Federal employees and their family members using EAP through contractual agreement between HHS and their organizations. f. The sixth system of records, FLRA/ Internal-9-Federal Executive Development Program Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no longer runs a Federal Executive Development Program and, if it did run such a program in the future, the FLRA would retain such records under OPM/GOVT-1 General Personnel Records. g. The seventh system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-11-Training Records, is proposed for rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT1 General Personnel Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. h. The eighth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-12-Performance Evaluation/ Rating Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA retains such records under OPM/GOVT-2 Employee Performance File System Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. i. The ninth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/ Internal-13-Intern Program and Upward Mobility Program Records, contains intern recruiting information pertaining to the internship program covered under OPM/GOVT-5 Recruiting, Examining, and Placement Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. The FLRA no longer runs an Upward Mobility Program or retains records of such a program. j. The tenth system of records, FLRA/ Internal-14-Motor Vehicle Accident Reports, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no longer possesses any such records. Records previously maintained under this system have been destroyed. k. The eleventh system of records, FLRA/Internal-16-Occupational Injury and Illness Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA retains such records under DOL/GOVT-1 Office of Worker’s Compensation Programs, Federal Employees’ Compensation Act E:\FR\FM\27OCN1.SGM 27OCN1 49804 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2017 / Notices File, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. The public, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the Congress are invited to submit written comments on the new system of records, the proposed amendments to the six existing systems of records, and the proposed rescindment of the eleven systems of records. A report on the proposed amendments, additions, and rescindments to the FLRA’s systems of records has been provided to OMB and Congress as required by OMB Circular A–108, and 5 U.S.C. 552a(r).

Privacy Act of 1974; Publication of Proposed Amendments to Six 
Existing Systems of Records; Introduction of a New System of Records; 
Rescindment of Eleven Systems of Records; Request for Comments

AGENCY: Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA).

ACTION: Notice of amendments to six existing systems of records; 
introduction of a new system of records; and rescindment of eleven 
systems of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Privacy Act of 1974 requires that each agency publish 
notice of all the systems of records that it maintains. This document 
proposes the amendment of six of the FLRA's existing systems of 
records, the introduction of a new system of records, and the 
rescindment of eleven systems of records that are no longer in use or 
that are covered by government-wide system of records notices. With the 
proposed addition and rescindment of systems, the FLRA will maintain 
seven systems of records. Additional details are provided under 
Supplementary Information, below.

DATES: This action will be effective without further notice on November 
27, 2017 unless comments are received that would result in contrary 
determinations.

ADDRESSES: Mail or deliver comments to Gina K. Grippando, Counsel for 
Regulatory and Public Affairs, Federal Labor Relations Authority, 1400 
K Street NW., Washington, DC 20424; or email [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Fred B. Jacob, Solicitor and Senior 
Agency Official for Privacy, Federal Labor Relations Authority, 1400 K 
Street NW., Washington, DC 20424; (202) 218-7999; fax: (202) 343-1007; 
or email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 
U.S.C. 552a, the FLRA hereby publishes notice of updates to its systems 
of records. See 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4). This document proposes the 
amendment of six systems of records, the introduction of a new system 
of records, and the rescindment of eleven systems of records, bringing 
the FLRA's total number of systems of records to seven. This notice 
first provides a summary of the six amended systems of records, the new 
system of records, and the eleven systems of records proposed for 
rescindment, and then provides the text of each of the amended and new 
systems of records.
    1. In the first proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA 
proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-2-Appeal and Administrative Review 
Records by updating the system location and the organizational title 
and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further 
to reflect that information is maintained on electronic and paper 
media, and that electronic records are maintained in a password-
protected automated system, with access limited to personnel whose 
duties require access. In addition, the system is being amended to 
reflect that burning is no longer a method of record disposal.
    2. In the second proposed amendment to a system of records, the 
FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-3-Complaints and Inquiries Records 
by updating the system location and the organizational title and 
address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to 
reflect that information is maintained on electronic and paper media, 
and that electronic records are maintained in a password-protected 
automated system, with access limited to personnel whose duties require 
access. In addition, the system is being amended to reflect that 
burning is no longer a method of record disposal.
    3. In the third proposed amendment to a system of records, the FLRA 
proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-6-Grievance Records by updating the 
system location and the organizational title and address of the system 
manager. The system is being updated further to reflect that 
information is maintained on electronic and paper media, and that 
electronic records are maintained in a password-protected automated 
system, with access limited to personnel whose duties require access. 
In addition, the system is being amended to: (1) Reflect that burning 
no longer is a method of

[[Page 49803]]

record disposal; and (2) change the record-retention period from three 
years after closing of the case to four to seven years after closing of 
the case, as required by the National Archives and Records 
Administration (NARA) General Records Schedule 30, item 30a.
    4. In the fourth proposed amendment to a system of records, the 
FLRA proposes to amend FLRA/Internal-10-Employee Locator Card Files by 
updating the system name to FLRA/Internal-10-Organization Management 
and Locator System, the system location, and the organizational title 
and address of the system manager. The system is being updated further 
to reflect that information is maintained on electronic media.
    5. In the fifth amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes 
to amend FLRA/Internal-15-Pay, Leave and Travel Records by amending its 
name to FLRA/Internal-15-Personnel and Payroll System Records and 
removing all references to travel records, which FLRA no longer 
maintains. Rather, the FLRA's travel records are maintained in a system 
operated by a contractor and, therefore, are covered by a government-
wide System of Records Notice: GSA/GOVT-4, Contracted Travel Services 
Program.
    In addition, the FLRA proposes to amend this system of records to 
reflect updates to FLRA payroll and personnel data processes and 
services. The FLRA maintains FLRA/Internal-15-Personnel and Payroll 
System Records to manage payroll and personnel data for FLRA employees, 
ensure proper payment of salary and benefits to FLRA personnel, and 
track time worked and leave or other absences for reporting and 
compliance purposes. The FLRA has entered into an agreement with the 
Department of the Interior (DOI) Interior Business Center (IBC), a 
Federal agency shared service provider, to provide payroll and 
personnel processing services through DOI's Federal Personnel and 
Payroll System (FPPS). Although DOI will host and process payroll and 
personnel data on behalf of the FLRA, the FLRA will retain ownership 
and control over its own data. The FLRA has included a routine use in 
this notice to permit sharing of records with DOI for hosting and 
support services. Individuals seeking access to their records owned and 
maintained by the FLRA must submit their requests to the FLRA as 
outlined in the Record Access Procedures, Contesting Record Procedures, 
and Notification Procedures sections in the amended SORN.
    6. In the sixth amendment to a system of records, the FLRA proposes 
to amend FLRA/OIG-1-Office of the Inspector General Investigative Files 
by updating the system location and the organizational title and 
address of the system manager. The system is being updated further to 
reflect that information is maintained on electronic media. In 
addition, the system is being amended to reflect that the FLRA obtained 
approval from NARA to modify the system's records-retention period such 
that only certain types of records must be retained permanently. Also, 
the contact for notification, record access, and contesting record 
procedures has been changed from the Office of the Solicitor to the 
Office of the Inspector General.
    7. The new system of records is entitled FLRA/Internal-17-Freedom 
of Information Act Request and Appeal Files. This system contains 
records concerning the FLRA's Freedom of Information Act program.
    8. The FLRA proposes to rescind eleven systems of records that are 
no longer in use by the FLRA or that are covered by government-wide 
system of records notices.
    a. The first system of records, FLRA/Internal-1-Employee 
Occupational Health Program Records, is proposed for rescindment 
because the FLRA no longer collects or retains data on FLRA employees 
using health services under the Federal Employees Group Health Program. 
Instead, the Federal Occupational Health (FOH)/Department of Health and 
Human Services (HHS) is now the custodian of these records, and those 
records are covered under OPM/GOVT-10 Employee Medical File System 
Records.
    b. The second system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-4-Applicants for Employment Records, is proposed for 
rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-5 
Recruiting, Examining, and Placement Records, and a separate FLRA 
System of Records would be duplicative.
    c. The third system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-5-Preemployment Inquiry Records, is proposed for rescindment 
because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-5 Recruiting, 
Examining, and Placement Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records 
would be duplicative.
    d. The fourth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-7-Employee Incentive Award and Recognition Files, is proposed 
for rescindment because those records are covered under OPM/GOVT-2 
Employee Performance File System Records, and a separate FLRA System of 
Records would be duplicative.
    e. The fifth system of records, FLRA/Internal-8-Employee Assistance 
Program Records, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no longer 
collects or retains data on FLRA employees using Employee Assistance 
Program (EAP) services. Instead, FOH/HHS is the custodian of these 
records, and it has published HHS System of Records Notice, 09-90-0010, 
EAP Records, which covers Federal employees and their family members 
using EAP through contractual agreement between HHS and their 
organizations.
    f. The sixth system of records, FLRA/Internal-9-Federal Executive 
Development Program Records, is proposed for rescindment because the 
FLRA no longer runs a Federal Executive Development Program and, if it 
did run such a program in the future, the FLRA would retain such 
records under OPM/GOVT-1 General Personnel Records.
    g. The seventh system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-11-Training Records, is proposed for rescindment because those 
records are covered under OPM/GOVT-1 General Personnel Records, and a 
separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative.
    h. The eighth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-12-Performance Evaluation/Rating Records, is proposed for 
rescindment because the FLRA retains such records under OPM/GOVT-2 
Employee Performance File System Records, and a separate FLRA System of 
Records would be duplicative.
    i. The ninth system of records proposed for rescindment, FLRA/
Internal-13-Intern Program and Upward Mobility Program Records, 
contains intern recruiting information pertaining to the internship 
program covered under OPM/GOVT-5 Recruiting, Examining, and Placement 
Records, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative. 
The FLRA no longer runs an Upward Mobility Program or retains records 
of such a program.
    j. The tenth system of records, FLRA/Internal-14-Motor Vehicle 
Accident Reports, is proposed for rescindment because the FLRA no 
longer possesses any such records. Records previously maintained under 
this system have been destroyed.
    k. The eleventh system of records, FLRA/Internal-16-Occupational 
Injury and Illness Records, is proposed for rescindment because the 
FLRA retains such records under DOL/GOVT-1 Office of Worker's 
Compensation Programs, Federal Employees' Compensation Act

[[Page 49804]]

File, and a separate FLRA System of Records would be duplicative.
    The public, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the 
Congress are invited to submit written comments on the new system of 
records, the proposed amendments to the six existing systems of 
records, and the proposed rescindment of the eleven systems of records. 
A report on the proposed amendments, additions, and rescindments to the 
FLRA's systems of records has been provided to OMB and Congress as 
required by OMB Circular A-108, and 5 U.S.C. 552a(r).
