SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August
16, 2018, (83 FR 40843) PHMSA
published a notice to seek public
comments on a report developed to
support improvements in gas and
hazardous liquid pipeline risk models.
Based on the results of pipeline
inspections and failure investigation
findings, both PHMSA and the National
Transportation Safety Board have
identified general weaknesses in the risk
models often used by pipeline operators
in performing risk assessments for their
integrity management programs. The

Pipeline Risk Modeling Report
considers the major types of pipeline
risk models, and the effectiveness of
each type in supporting risk
assessments, as applied to pipeline
operator decisions.
In an August 15, 2018, letter to
PHMSA, the American Gas Association,
the American Petroleum Institute, the
American Public Gas Association, the
Association of Oil Pipe Lines, and the
Interstate Natural Gas Association of
America requested a 30-day extension of
the comment deadline to allow them
and other interested stakeholders plan
their review of the notice.
PHMSA has concurred with the
Associations’ request and has extended
the comment period as shown in the

additional time for commenters to

Stability Oversight Council (the
‘‘Council’’) the authority to require that
a nonbank financial company be

accordance with Title I of the DFA if the
Council determines that material
financial distress at the firm, or the
nature, scope, size, scale, concentration,
interconnectedness, or mix of the
activities of the firm, could pose a threat
to the financial stability of the United
States. The information collected in
§ 1310.20 from state regulatory agencies
will be used generally by FSOC to carry
out its duties under Title I of the DoddFrank Act. The collections of
information in §§ 1310.21 and 1310.22
provide an opportunity to request a
hearing or submit written materials to
the Council concerning whether, in the
company’s view, material financial
distress at the company, or the nature,
scope, size, scale, concentration,
interconnectedness, or mix of the
activities of the company, could pose a
threat to the financial stability of the
United States.

of U.S. Government Life Insurance—VA
(36VA29)’’
DATES: Comments on this modified
system of records must be received no
later than 30 days after date of
publication in the Federal Register. If
no public comment is received during
the period allowed for comment or
unless otherwise published in the
Federal Register by VA, the modified

Veterans Affairs Insurance Center, 5000

The
Department is republishing, in full, the
System of Records Notice (SORN)
36VA29 that was last published on
October 22, 2010. This republication
provides a number of nonsignificant
edits added for clarity and brevity, such
as minor updates involving the
locations and references of the mailing
addresses for both onsite and offsite
records storage sites, corrected office
designations for VA Insurance Center’s
Director, amendment of website
terminology that reflects more accurate
nomenclature for access, and includes
references to the amended title of the
vendor that provides
telecommunication services to the
Veterans Insurance Phone Section
(VIPS). This nonsignificant alteration
also eliminates references to the
amendments made in the revised and
consolidated SORN 36VA29 of October
22, 2010.
This amendment also provides for a
number of modifications for routine
uses that include text changes and
additions that are considered to be a
significant amendment based on VA
requirements. The following are the
changes made to the routine uses for
SORN 36VA29.
The language of routine use number
one, which states, ‘‘The record of an
individual who is covered by a system
of records may be disclosed to a
Member of Congress, or a staff person
acting for the Member, when the
Member or staff person requests the
record on behalf of, and at the written
request of, the individual’’, has been
amended to state, ‘‘VA may disclose
information from the record of an
individual in response to an inquiry
from the congressional office made at
the request of that individual.’’ VA must
be able to provide information about
individuals to adequately respond to
inquiries from Members of Congress at
the request of constituents who have
sought their assistance. This change to
routine use number one is not a new
routine use but is amended to reflect the
current language used for the release of
information to members of Congress.

The language of former routine use
number seven, which is now designated
as routine use number two, reads, ‘‘VA
may, on its own initiative, disclose any
information or records to appropriate
agencies, entities, and persons when (1)
VA suspects or has confirmed that the
integrity or confidentiality of
information in the system of records has
been compromised; (2) the Department
has determined that, as a result of the
suspected or confirmed compromise,
there is a risk of embarrassment or harm
to the reputations of the record subjects,
harm to economic or property interests,
identity theft or fraud, or harm to the
security, confidentiality, or integrity of
this system or other systems or
programs (whether maintained by the
Department or another agency or entity)
that rely upon the potentially
compromised information; and (3) the
disclosure is to agencies, entities, or
persons whom VA determines are
reasonably necessary to assist or carry
out the Department’s efforts to respond
to the suspected or confirmed
compromise and prevent, minimize, or
remedy such harm. This routine use
permits disclosures by the Department
to respond to a suspected or confirmed
data breach, including the conduct of
any risk analysis or provision of credit
protection services as provided in 38
U.S.C. 5724, as the terms are defined in
38 U.S.C 5727’’, has been amended to
read, ‘‘VA may, on its own initiative,
disclose information from this system to
appropriate agencies, entities, and
persons when (1) VA suspects or has
confirmed that there has been a breach
of the system of records; (2) VA has
determined that as a result of the
suspected or confirmed breach there is
a risk of harm to individuals, VA
(including its information systems,
programs, and operations), the Federal
Government, or national security; and
the disclosure made to such agencies,
entities, and persons is reasonably
necessary to assist in connection with
VA’s efforts to respond to the suspected
or confirmed breach or to prevent,
minimize, or remedy such harm.’’.
This change to former routine use
number seven, which is now designated
as routine use number two, is not a new
routine use. This routine use permits
disclosures by the Department to
respond to a suspected or confirmed
data breach, including the conduct of
any risk analysis or provision of credit
protection services as provided in 38
U.S.C. 5724.’’
