submit written data, views, or arguments on this proposal. A report of 
the proposed revisions has been sent to Congress and to the Office of 
Management and Budget for their evaluations. The Postal Service does 
not expect these amended systems of records to have any adverse effect 
on individual privacy rights. The notices for USPS 100.000 General

    Automated database, computer storage media, digital files, and 
paper files. Duplicates of records in the OPF or eOPF and automated 
employee data may be maintained for localized employee administration 
or supervision. Records may be filed at offices other than where OPF or 
eOPF is located, or may be duplicated at a site closer to where the

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:

Temporary OPF or eOPF records are generally retained 2 years and are 
purged upon the employee's separation from USPS.
    2. Except as otherwise provided by a collective bargaining 
agreement, original or copies of discipline or adverse actions are 
maintained up to 2 years; or, if an additional or more recent 
disciplinary action has been taken, for a longer period. After 2 years, 
or lesser time specified in the decision, the employee may request the 
disciplinary record be purged from the OPF or eOPF provided no 
subsequent discipline was issued. Records that support a PS Form 50, 
Notification of Personnel Action, e.g., the separation of an employee 
for cause or the resignation of an employee pending charges, are 
considered permanent records and may not be purged at the request of an 
employee.
    3. Reference copies of discipline or adverse actions. These records 
are kept for historical purposes and are not to be used for decisions 
about the employee. The retention of these records may not exceed 10 
years beyond the employee's separation date. The records are maintained 
longer if the employee is rehired during the 10-year period. They may 
not be maintained in the employee's OPF or eOPF, but must be maintained 
in a separate file by Labor Relations.
    4. Grievance and appeal records of nonbargaining unit employees are 
retained 7 years.
    5. Job bidding records are retained 2 years.
    6. Biographical summaries are retained for the duration of 
employment.

employees are retained for 10 years. Records may be purged at the

    Records existing on paper are destroyed by burning, pulping, or 
shredding. Records existing on computer storage media are destroyed 
according to the applicable USPS media sanitization practice.

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
    Paper records, computers, and computer storage media are located in 
controlled-access areas under supervision of program personnel. Access 
to these areas is limited to authorized personnel, who must be 
identified with a badge. Nonbargaining unit employee discipline, 
grievance, and appeals records maintained outside the OPF (hard or soft 
copy) are kept in locked filing cabinets or secured record storage 
rooms; and related automated records are protected with password 
security. Computers are protected by mechanical locks, card key 
systems, or other physical access control methods. The use of computer 
systems is regulated with installed security software, computer logon 
identifications, and operating system controls including access 
controls, terminal and transaction logging, and file management 
software.

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
    Requests for access must be made in accordance with the 
Notification Procedure above and USPS Privacy Act regulations regarding 
access to records and verification of identity under 39 CFR 266.6.

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
    See Notification Procedures below and Record Access Procedures 
above.

anticipation of a civil action or proceeding are exempt from individual 
access as permitted by 5 U.S.C. 552a(d)(5). The USPS has also claimed 
exemption from certain provisions of the Act for several of its other 
systems of records at 39 CFR 266.9. To the extent that copies of 
exempted records from those other systems are incorporated into this 
system, the exemptions applicable to the original primary system 
continue to apply to the incorporated records.
