ACTION: Notice of General Amendment to Federal Reserve Board of Governors Systems of Records. AGENCY: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, notice is given that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) is amending its General Routine Uses of Board Systems of Records (General Routine Uses) that apply to the Board’s systems of records, by revising an existing routine use and adding a new routine use, both related to breach response. The changes are necessary in order to comply with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M–17–12, ‘‘Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information’’ (January 3, 2017), which sets forth the two required routine uses. Accordingly, the Board is revising Routine Use I, as prescribed by OMB, which allows the Board to disclose records as necessary to respond to a suspected or confirmed breach of the system of records where the Board has determined the breach poses a risk of harm to individuals, the Board, the Federal Government, or national security, and the disclosure is reasonably necessary to assist the Board in its efforts to respond to the breach or to prevent, minimize or remedy such harm. The Board is also adding Routine Use J as prescribed by OMB to allow the Board to assist another federal agency or federal entity in that agency’s or entity’s response to a suspected or confirmed breach or efforts to prevent, minimize, or remedy the risk of harm to individuals, the agency or entity, the Federal Government, or national daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:00 Aug 27, 2018 Jkt 244001 security, resulting from a suspected or confirmed breach. These breach-response related uses are relevant and apply to all of the Board’s systems of records. Accordingly, the Board is revising its list of General Routine Uses and is amending all of the Board’s systems of records to include the revised Routine Use I and the new Routine Use J. These uses will ensure that the Board is able to respond as necessary in the event of a breach of personally identifiable information involving a Board system of records and assist other federal agencies or federal entities in their response. Breaches pose a risk of harm to individuals, and thus the revised and new routine uses will further enhance the Board’s ability to protect the privacy of individuals by allowing the Board to respond to the suspected or confirmed breach and prevent, minimize, or remedy the resulting harm posed by the breach. In order that the Board’s General Routine Uses will be contained in a single notice readily accessible by the public, the Board is republishing the General Routine Uses previously published on May 6, 2008 (73 FR 24985) which were not revised under this notice. DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 27, 2018. The revised systems of records notices and General Routine Uses will become effective September 27, 2018, without further notice, unless comments dictate otherwise. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has oversight responsibility under the Privacy Act, requires a 30-day period prior to publication in the Federal Register in which to review the system and to provide any comments to the agency.

Information Collection for Tuberculosis Data from Panel Physicians—Revision—National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC), National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Division of Global Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ), Immigrant, Refugee, and Migrant Health Branch (IRMH), requests approval for a revision of an existing information collection. This project pertains to collecting annual reports on certain tuberculosis data from U.S. panel physicians. The respondents are panel physicians. More than 760 panel physicians from 336 panel sites perform overseas predeparture medical examinations in accordance with requirements, referred to as technical instructions, provided by DGMQs Quality Assessment Program (QAP). The role of QAP is to assist and guide panel physicians in the implementation of the Technical Instructions; evaluate the quality of the overseas medical examination for U.S.bound immigrants and refugees; assess potential panel physician sites; and provide recommendations to the U.S. Department of State in matters of immigrant medical screening. PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 43875 To achieve DGMQ’s mission, the Immigrant, Refugee and Migrant Health branch (IRMH) works with domestic and international programs to improve the health of U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees to protect the U.S. public by preventing the importation of infectious disease. These goals are accomplished through IRMH’s oversight of medical exams required for all U.S.— bound immigrants and refugees who seek permanent residence in the U.S. IRMH is responsible for assisting and training the international panel physicians with the implementation of medical exam Technical Instructions (TI). Technical Instructions are detailed requirements and national policies regarding the medical screening and treatment of all U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees. Screening for tuberculosis (TB) is a particularly important component of the immigration medical exam and allows panel physicians to diagnose active TB disease prior to arrival in the United States. As part of the Technical Instructions requirements, panel physicians perform chest x-rays and laboratory tests that aid in the identification of tuberculosis infection (Class B1 applicants) and diagnosis of active tuberculosis disease (Class A, inadmissible applicants). CDC uses these classifications to report new immigrant and refugee arrivals with a higher risk of developing TB disease to U.S. state and local health departments for further follow-up. Some information that panel physicians collect as part of the medical exam is not reported on the standard Department of State forms (DSforms), thereby preventing CDC from evaluating TB trends in globally mobile populations and monitoring program effectiveness. Currently, CDC is requesting this data be sent by panel physicians once per year. The consequences of reducing this frequency would be the loss of monitoring program impact and TB burdens in mobile populations and immigrants and refugees coming to the United States on an annual basis. Estimated annual burden is being reduced by 1,640 hours per year. The number of respondents is being reduced by 17. Reductions are due to revised estimates on burden time per response, and the removal of four variables from the data collection form and improved IT capacity at most panel sites. The total hours requested is 1,008. There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. E:\FR\FM\28AUN1.SGM 28AUN1

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM


Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

ACTION: Notice of General Amendment to Federal Reserve Board of 
Governors Systems of Records.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, notice 
is given that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System 
(Board) is amending its General Routine Uses of Board Systems of 
Records (General Routine Uses) that apply to the Board's systems of 
records, by revising an existing routine use and adding a new routine 
use, both related to breach response. The changes are necessary in 
order to comply with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum 
M-17-12, ``Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally 
Identifiable Information'' (January 3, 2017), which sets forth the two 
required routine uses. Accordingly, the Board is revising Routine Use 
I, as prescribed by OMB, which allows the Board to disclose records as 
necessary to respond to a suspected or confirmed breach of the system 
of records where the Board has determined the breach poses a risk of 
harm to individuals, the Board, the Federal Government, or national 
security, and the disclosure is reasonably necessary to assist the 
Board in its efforts to respond to the breach or to prevent, minimize 
or remedy such harm. The Board is also adding Routine Use J as 
prescribed by OMB to allow the Board to assist another federal agency 
or federal entity in that agency's or entity's response to a suspected 
or confirmed breach or efforts to prevent, minimize, or remedy the risk 
of harm to individuals, the agency or entity, the Federal Government, 
or national security, resulting from a suspected or confirmed breach.
    These breach-response related uses are relevant and apply to all of 
the Board's systems of records. Accordingly, the Board is revising its 
list of General Routine Uses and is amending all of the Board's systems 
of records to include the revised Routine Use I and the new Routine Use 
J. These uses will ensure that the Board is able to respond as 
necessary in the event of a breach of personally identifiable 
information involving a Board system of records and assist other 
federal agencies or federal entities in their response. Breaches pose a 
risk of harm to individuals, and thus the revised and new routine uses 
will further enhance the Board's ability to protect the privacy of 
individuals by allowing the Board to respond to the suspected or 
confirmed breach and prevent, minimize, or remedy the resulting harm 
posed by the breach. In order that the Board's General Routine Uses 
will be contained in a single notice readily accessible by the public, 
the Board is republishing the General Routine Uses previously published 
on May 6, 2008 (73 FR 24985) which were not revised under this notice.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 27, 2018. The 
revised systems of records notices and General Routine Uses will become 
effective September 27, 2018, without further notice, unless comments 
dictate otherwise. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has 
oversight responsibility under the Privacy Act, requires a 30-day 
period prior to publication in the Federal Register in which to review 
the system and to provide any comments to the agency. The public is 
then given a 30-day period in which to comment, in accordance with 5 
U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11). The routine uses below were submitted to 
OMB on July 16, 2018.

    The Board is amending its General Routine Uses by revising Routine 
Use I and adding Routine Use J. The Board is also revising all of the 
SORNs listed above \1\ to include the revised Routine Use I and the new 
Routine Use J. The Board is revising Routine Use I of its General 
Routine Uses to read as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ BGFRS-40, ``FRB--Board Subscription Services'' is not 
included in the list because the Board's April 11, 2018 publication 
of that SORN included the substance of the new Routine Uses I and J. 
83 FR 15569 (April 11, 2018).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ``I. Disclosure to Facilitate a Response to a Breach of the Board. 
Information may be disclosed to appropriate agencies, entities, and 
persons when: (1) The Board suspects or has confirmed that there has 
been a breach of the system of records; (2) the Board has determined 
that as a result of the suspected or confirmed breach there is a risk 
of harm to individuals, the Board (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 
Board's efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed breach or to 
prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.''
    The Board is also adding Routine Use J to its General Routine Uses 
to read as follows:
    ``J. Disclosure to Assist another Federal Agency or Federal Entity 
in Responding to a Breach. Information may be disclosed to another 
federal agency or federal entity, when the Board determines that the 
information from this system of records is reasonably necessary to 
assist the recipient agency or entity in (1) responding to a suspected

risk of harm to individuals, the recipient agency or entity (including 
its information systems, programs, and operations), the Federal 
Government, or national security, resulting from a suspected or 
confirmed breach.''

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
    Access to records is limited to those whose official duties require 
it. Electronic records are password protected.

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
    The Privacy Act allows individuals the right to access records 
maintained about them in a Board system of records. Your request for 
access must: (1) Contain a statement that it is made pursuant to the 
Privacy Act of 1974; (2) provide either the name of the Board system of 
records expected to contain the record requested or a concise 
description of the system of records; (3) provide the information 
necessary to verify your identity; and (4) provide any other 
information that may assist in the rapid identification of the record 
for which you are requesting access.
    Current or former Board employees may make a request for access by 
contacting the Board office that maintains the record. The Board 
handles all Privacy Act requests as both a Privacy Act request and as a 
Freedom of Information Act request. The Board does not charge fees to a 
requestor seeking to access or amend his/her Privacy Act records.
    You may submit your Privacy Act request to the--Secretary of the 
Board, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 20th Street 
and Constitution Avenue NW, Washington DC 20551.
    If your request is for records maintained by the Board's Office of 
Inspector General, submit your request to the--Inspector General, Board 
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 20th Street and 
Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20551.
    You may also submit your Privacy Act request electronically through 
the Board's FOIA ``Electronic Request Form'' located here: https://www.federalreserve.gov/secure/forms/efoiaform.aspx.

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
    The Privacy Act allows individuals to seek amendment of information 
that is erroneous, irrelevant, untimely, or incomplete and is 
maintained in a system of records about you. To request an amendment to 
your record, you should clearly mark the request as a ``Privacy Act 
Amendment Request.'' You have the burden of proof for demonstrating the 
appropriateness of the requested amendment and you must provide 
relevant and convincing evidence in support of your request.
    Your request for amendment must: (1) Provide the name of the 
specific Board system of records containing the record you seek to 
amend; (2) Identify the specific portion of the record you seek to 
amend; (3) Describe the nature of and reasons for each requested 
amendment; (4) Explain why you believe the record is not accurate, 
relevant, timely, or complete; and (5) Unless you have already done so 
in a Privacy Act request for access, provide the necessary information 
to verify your identity.

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES:
    Same as ``Access procedures'' above. You may also follow this 
procedure in order to request an accounting of previous disclosures of 
records pertaining to you as provided for by 5 U.S.C. 552a(c).

EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE SYSTEM:
