(EPOCRS)'' that will now be titled ``Department of the Treasury, Bureau 
of Engraving and Printing (BEP)-.048--Police Operations Command 
Reporting System (POCRS).''. This system of records contains records 
related to investigations of criminal and/or administrative incidents, 
traffic accidents, and/or general concerns and complaints regarding BEP 
property and persons for which the BEP Police maintains jurisdiction.

DATES: Submit comments on or before August 31, 2018. This modified

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 
5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of the Treasury (``Treasury'' or the 
``Department''), Bureau of Engraving and Printing (``BEP'') proposes to 
modify an existing system of records titled, ``Department of the 
Treasury, Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) .048--Electronic 
Police Operations Command Reporting System (EPOCRS).''
    The mission of the BEP is to develop and produce United States 
currency notes, trusted worldwide. BEP prints billions of U.S. currency 
notes--referred to as Federal Reserve notes--each year for delivery to 
the Federal Reserve System. Due to the sensitive nature of currency 
production operations, the BEP is generally closed to the public. 
Limited areas of the BEP, however, are accessible for public tours 
during certain authorized dates and times. Any individual entering, 
exiting, or on the BEP's property is subject to the rules of conduct as 
prescribed within the regulations, and violations may result in 
criminal prosecution. The BEP has a high degree of security due to 
producing Federal Reserve notes and individuals are placed on notice 
that they are subject to search and inspection of their person, 
personal items and property while entering, exiting, and on the 
property.
    The BEP's Office of Security, Police Operations Division at the 
District of Columbia Facility (``DCF'') and the Office of Manufacturing 
Support, Security Division, Police Services Branch at the Western 
Currency Facility (``WCF'') are collectively known as the BEP Police. 
The BEP Police use the Police Operations Command Reporting System as a 
robust management and reporting system for investigations of criminal 
and/or administrative incidents, traffic accidents, and/or general 
concerns and complaints regarding BEP property and persons for which 
the BEP Police shares jurisdiction through a cooperative agreement, 
memorandum of understanding, or other arrangements BEP has with other 
federal, state, or local agencies or law enforcement offices or 
operations. The system increases efficiency and provides accountability 
by streamlining procedures and automating some paper forms that may 
contain personally identifiable information (PII) of individuals 
including members of the public visiting BEP at DCF and WCF.
    Under the existing system of records, BEP Police may collect 
limited PII associated with investigations pertaining to BEP property 
and persons under BEP's Police jurisdiction. The BEP Police generates 
and manages its records primarily in paper form. The BEP Police is 
initiating comprehensive administrative improvements through an 
automated data system that facilitates

[[Page 37632]]

the transition from paper records to an electronic system. This system 
is designed to create an automated web-based repository for forms, 
logs, and records associated with records generated and managed by the 
BEP Police. In addition, the system allows authorized BEP Police to: 
(1) Query information; (2) prepare management reports; (3) retrieve the 
status of a particular investigation; (4) electronically process PII, 
which may include Social Security numbers (SSNs); and (5) collect PII 
in automated forms such as: (1) Voluntary statements from individuals 
or witnesses, (2) evidence and/or property in BEP custody, (3) traffic 
accident reports, (4) offense/incident reports, (5) consent for search 
of BEP employees or contractors, and (6) security violations by BEP 
employees or contractors.
    The changes to the system or records include: (1) Renaming all 
headings and the system title to ``Department of the Treasury, Bureau 
of Engraving and Printing (BEP) .048--Police Operations Command 
Reporting System''; (2) clarifying the categories of individuals 
covered by the system; (3) adding categories of records maintained in 
the system, including Social Security numbers (SSNs), if provided 
voluntarily; (4) clarifying agency's existing applicable authorities 
for maintenance of the system; (5) clarifying the purpose of the 
system; (6) clarifying the applicable records retention schedule 
citation; (7) adding contractors and federal, state, local, and foreign 
agencies as a record source category; (8) adding routine uses to share 
information with other (a) federal agencies or federal entities as 
required by OMB Memorandum 17-12, ``Preparing for and Responding to a 
Breach of Personally Identifiable Information,'' dated January 3, 2017, 
to assist BEP in responding to a suspected or confirmed breach or 
prevent, minimize, or remedy the risk of harm to the requesters, BEP, 
the Federal Government, or national security, and (b) federal, state, 
local, or other public authority agency which has requested information 
relevant or necessary to the requesting authority's hiring or retention 
of an individual, or issuance of a security clearance, license, 
contract, grant, or other benefit; (9) expanding the policies and 
practices for retrieval of records to include retrieval by Social 
Security number (SSN), if provided voluntarily to the BEP; and (10) 
eliminating the records management inspections routine uses already 
permitted under the Privacy Act of 1974.
    Other changes throughout the document are editorial in nature and 
consist primarily of correction to citations and updates to point of 
contact and address.
    BEP has provided a report of this system of records to the 
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform of the House of 
Representatives, the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental 
Affairs of the Senate, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) and OMB Circular A-108, ``Federal Agency 
Responsibilities for Review, Reporting, and Publication under the 
Privacy Act,'' dated December 23, 2016.
    For the reasons set forth in the preamble, BEP proposes to modify 
its system of records entitled ``Department of the Treasury, Bureau of 
Engraving and Printing (BEP) -.048--Electronic Police Operations 
Command Reporting System (EPOCRS)'' as follows:

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as follows:
    (1) To appropriate federal, state, local, or foreign public

    (3) To a court, adjudicative body, or other administrative body 
before which BEP is authorized to appear when (a) the agency, (b) any

employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity where the U.S. 
Department of Justice (``DOJ'') or the agency has agreed to represent

litigation is likely to affect the agency, is a party to litigation or 
has an interest in such litigation, and the use of such records by the 
agency is deemed to be relevant and necessary to the litigation or 
administrative proceeding and not otherwise privileged;
    (4) To a congressional office in response to an inquiry made at the 
request of the individual to whom the record pertains;

that litigation is likely to affect the BEP and the use of such records 
by the DOJ is deemed by the DOJ to be relevant and necessary to the 
litigation provided that the disclosure is compatible with the purpose 
for which records were collected;
    (6) To appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when (1) the 
Department and/or BEP suspects or has confirmed that there has been a 
breach of the system of records; (2) the Department and/or BEP has

is a risk of harm to individuals, the Department and/or BEP (including 
its information systems, programs, and operations), the Federal 
Government, or national security; and (3) the disclosure made to such 
agencies, entities, and persons is reasonably necessary to assist in 
connection with the Department and/or BEP efforts to respond to the 
suspected or confirmed breach or to prevent, minimize, or remedy such 
harm; and
    (7) To another federal agency or federal entity, when the 
Department and/or BEP determines that information from this system of 
records is reasonably necessary to assist the recipient agency or 
entity in (1) responding to a suspected or confirmed breach or (2)
