[NRC-2019-0191]


Privacy Act of 1974; Systems of Records

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of modified system of records; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 and Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, notice is hereby given that the 
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), proposes to modify 28 and 
rescind 9 of its system of records notices. The proposed modifications 
would include incorporating, for the convenience of readers, the full 
text of routine uses previously described in a Prefatory Statement of 
General Routine Uses directly into each individual system notice to 
which they apply, incorporating system-breach notification routine uses 
into each system notice in accordance with OMB Memorandum M-17-12, 
narrowing the scope of one system notice to eliminate, in accordance 
with OMB Circular A-108, the partial duplication of a government-wide 
system of records notice, and eliminating a redundant routine use from 
one system notice. Of the proposed rescindments of system notices, six 
would eliminate, in accordance with OMB Circular A-108, notices that 
duplicate government-wide system of records notices, and three would 
eliminate notices that are no longer necessary because the records they 
cover do not qualify as Privacy Act records. Additional details are 
provided in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of this document.

DATES: Submit comments on revisions and changes by January 27, 2020. 
Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical 
to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure consideration only for 
comments received before this date.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any of the following methods:

II. Background

    Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 and OMB Circular No. A-108, 
``Federal Agency Responsibilities for Review, Reporting, and 
Publication under the Privacy Act,'' notice is hereby given that the 
NRC proposes to modify 28 and rescind 9 of its system of records 
notices.
    First, the NRC is proposing revisions to eliminate its Prefatory 
Statement of General Routines Uses, in which the NRC has previously 
listed, as part of its periodic republication of all NRC system notices 
in the Federal Register, those routine uses that are common to many 
individual system of records notices. Individual system notices have 
then incorporated any applicable Prefatory Statement routine uses by 
reference, which has required readers to refer back to the Prefatory 
Statement earlier in the Federal Register notice to understand the full 
range of routine uses applicable to each system. Under new approach the 
NRC proposes here, each individual notice would now include the full 
text of each applicable routine use, including those that were 
previously included in the Prefatory Statement.
    The NRC also proposes to add a new routine use and revise an 
existing routine use that will apply to all 28 remaining system of 
records notices, which were most recently published on November 17, 
2016 (81 FR 81320), that would authorize the NRC to disclose 
information when reasonably necessary to respond to a suspected or 
confirmed breach of an NRC system of records or, as appropriate, to 
assist another agency in its own response to a suspected or confirmed 
breach. These changes are in accordance with OMB Memorandum, M-17-12, 
``Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable 
Information,'' dated January 3, 2017.
    The final proposed change involving routine uses involves removing 
a routine use addressing disclosures to the Congress from one NRC 
system notice, because that routine use is redundant in light of 5 
U.S.C. 552a(b)(9), which already expressly permits disclosures of 
Privacy Act information to either House of Congress or to Congressional 
committees or subcommittees with jurisdiction. The

[[Page 71537]]

same system of records notice also has been incorporating a routine use 
from the Prefatory Statement of General Routine Uses that provides for 
disclosure of an individual's records to a Member of Congress who is 
inquiring at the individual's request. The system notice will continue 
to include that routine use.
    In addition, based on a systematic review of its systems of 
records, the NRC proposes to rescind nine system of records notices. 
The NRC has determined that six of these notices are duplicative of 
government-wide systems of records notices. Consistent with guidance in 
OMB Circular A-108, the NRC proposes to rescind these six duplicative 
NRC notices. The information these duplicative notices have addressed 
would still be managed in accordance with the Privacy Act, consistent 
with the applicable government-wide system of records notices. As to 
the other three system of records notices the NRC proposes to rescind, 
the NRC has determined that none of those systems currently involves 
information about individuals intended for retrieval by agency 
personnel using the individual's name or other personal identifier. 
Accordingly, these notices are unnecessary to maintain, as they no 
longer address Privacy Act systems of records.
    The NRC also proposes to narrow the scope of one system of records 
notice that partially duplicates a government-wide system notice and 
rename the NRC system to reflect the narrower set of records that the 
NRC notice will continue to cover. The records no longer addressed by 
the NRC system notice would still be managed in accordance with the 
Privacy Act, consistent with the applicable government-wide system of 
records notice.
    The proposed changes to individual NRC system of records notices 
are as follows:
    (1) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 2, Biographical Information 
Records, because the information covered by the NRC 2 system notice is 
all publicly available and intended for informational use by the 
general public, rather than for retrieval and business use by NRC 
personnel. The NRC does not currently maintain, or anticipate 
maintaining, internal, non-publicly available records under this system 
notice. As such, the records addressed by NRC 2 no longer qualify as a 
Privacy Act system of records, rendering the system notice for these 
records unnecessary.
    (2) The NRC proposes to remove a Congressional-disclosure routine 
use in NRC 3, Enforcement Actions Against Individuals. The Privacy Act 
already expressly permits disclosure of Privacy Act records to either 
House of Congress and to Congressional committees and subcommittees 
with jurisdiction, and NRC 3 already includes another routine use 
addressing disclosure to an individual Member of Congress inquiring on 
behalf of the individual. Accordingly, the routine use the NRC proposes 
to remove is unnecessary to retain, because it would allow uses of 
records that are already permitted by the Privacy Act itself or by 
another routine use in the same system notice.
    (3) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 4, Conflict of Interest 
Records, because those records are covered under the government-wide 
systems OGE/GOVT-1 (Executive Branch Personnel Public Financial 
Disclosure Reports and Other Name-Retrieved Ethics Program Records) and 
OGE/GOVT-2 (Executive Branch Confidential Financial Disclosure 
Reports). Rescinding NRC 4 would avoid duplicative notices.
    (4) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 6, Department of Labor (DOL) 
Discrimination Cases, because these records are no longer retrieved by 
name or personal identifier.
    (5) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 9, Office of SBCR 
Discrimination Complaint Records, because those records are covered 
under the government-wide system EEOC/GOVT-1 (Equal Employment 
Opportunity in the Federal Government Complaint and Appeal Records). 
Rescinding NRC 9 would avoid duplicative notices.
    (6) The NRC proposes to modify NRC 11, General Personnel Records 
(Official Personnel Folder and Related Records). NRC 11 is a partial 
duplicate of the government-wide system OPM/GOVT-1 (General Personal 
Records). The modification would narrow the scope of NRC 11 so that the 
system includes only those records that OPM/GOVT-1 does not also 
include: Specifically, reasonable accommodation records. This 
modification would therefore ensure that the NRC 11 notice does not 
duplicate the government-wide OPM/GOVT-1 notice. In connection with 
this modification, the NRC also proposes to rename NRC 11 to 
``Reasonable Accommodations Records--NRC'' to better describe the 
records that would remain in the system.
    (7) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 17, Occupational Injury and 
Illness Records, because those records are covered under the 
government-wide system DOL/GOVT-1 (Office of Worker's Compensation 
Programs, Federal Employees' Compensation Act File). Rescinding NRC 17 
would avoid duplicative notices.
    (8) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 20, Official Travel Records, 
because those records are covered under the government-wide system GSA/
GOVT-4 (Contracted Travel Services Program). Rescinding NRC 20 would 
avoid duplicative notices.
    (9) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 22, Personnel Performance 
Appraisals, because those records are covered under the government-wide 
system OPM/GOVT-2 (Employee Performance File System Records). 
Rescinding NRC 22 would avoid duplicative notices.
    (10) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 28, Merit Selection Records, 
because those records are covered under the government-wide system OPM/
GOVT-5 (Recruiting, Examining, and Placement Records). Rescinding NRC 
28 would avoid duplicative notices.
    (11) The NRC proposes to rescind NRC 42, Strategic Workforce 
Planning Records. Because of the purpose and functionality of the new 
database the NRC is using to manage the records involved, the records 
are no longer retrieved by name or personal identifier.
    (12) The NRC proposes to update all remaining NRC system notices 
(that is, the system notices the NRC would not be rescinding) to 
include the full text of any applicable routine uses that previously 
have been contained in the Prefatory Statement of General Routine Uses. 
These revisions are not intended to modify the routine uses applicable 
to these systems. The purpose is solely for the convenience of the 
reader: To eliminate the need, when reviewing a particular system 
notice in the Federal Register, to refer back to a Prefatory Statement 
earlier in the Federal Register notice.
    (13) The NRC proposes to update all remaining NRC system notices 
(that is, the system notices the NRC would not be rescinding) to 
include the routine use language associated with responding to system 
breaches in accordance with OMB Memorandum M-17-12.
    The proposed revisions and rescindments to these systems require an 
advance period for public comment.
    A report on these revisions and rescindments has been sent to OMB, 
the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs of U.S. 
Senate, and the Committee on Oversight and Reform of the U.S. House of 
Representatives, as required by the Privacy Act.
    If changes are made based on the NRC's review of comments received, 
the NRC will publish a subsequent notice.
    The text of the report, in its entirety, is attached.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 17th day of December, 2019.

    These systems of records are those systems maintained by the NRC 
that contain personal information about individuals from which 
information is retrieved by an individual's name or identifier.
    The notice for each system of records states the name and location 
of the record system, the authority for and manner of its operation, 
the categories of individuals that it covers, the types of records that 
it contains, the sources of information in those records, and the 
routine uses of each system of records. Each notice also includes the 
business address of the NRC official who will inform interested persons 
of the procedures whereby they may gain access to and request amendment 
of records pertaining to them.
    The Privacy Act provides certain safeguards for an individual 
against an invasion of personal privacy by requiring Federal agencies 
to protect records contained in an agency system of records from 
unauthorized disclosure and to ensure that information is current and 
accurate for its intended use and that adequate safeguards are provided 
to prevent misuse of such information.

to NRC enforcement actions or who have been the subject of 
correspondence indicating that they are being or have been considered 
for enforcement action.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    Individuals involved in NRC-licensed activities who have been 
subject to NRC enforcement actions or who have been the subject of 
correspondence indicating that they are being, or have been, considered 
for enforcement action.

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
    The system includes, but is not limited to, individual enforcement 
actions, including Orders, Notices of Violations with and without Civil

have been considered for enforcement action. Also included are 
responses to these actions and letters. In addition, the files may 
contain other relevant documents directly related to those actions and 
letters that have been issued. Files are arranged numerically by 
Individual Action (IA) numbers, which are assigned when individual 
enforcement actions are considered. In instances where only letters are 
issued, these

[[Page 71540]]

letters also receive IA numbers. The system includes a computerized 
database from which information is retrieved by names of the 
individuals subject to the action and IA numbers.

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:
    Information in the records is primarily obtained from NRC 
inspectors and investigators and other NRC employees, individuals to 
whom a record pertains, authorized representatives for these 
individuals, and NRC licensees, vendors, other individuals regulated by 
the NRC, and persons making allegations to the NRC.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    In addition to the disclosures permitted under subsection (b) of 
the Privacy Act, the NRC may disclose information contained in this 
system of records without the consent of the subject individual if the 
disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the record was 
collected under the following routine uses:
    a. To deter future violations, certain information in this system 
of records may be routinely disseminated to the public by means such as 
publishing in the Federal Register certain enforcement actions issued 
to individuals and making the information available in the Public 
Document Room accessible through the NRC website, www.nrc.gov;
    b. When considered appropriate for disciplinary purposes, 
information in this system of records, such as enforcement actions and 
hearing proceedings, may be disclosed to a bar association, or other 
professional organization performing similar functions, including 
certification of individuals licensed by NRC or Agreement States to 
perform specified licensing activities;
    c. Where appropriate to ensure the public health and safety, 
information in this system of records, such as enforcement actions and 
hearing proceedings, may be disclosed to a Federal or State agency with 
licensing jurisdiction;
    d. To respond to the National Archives and Records Administration 
or to the General Services Administration for records management 
inspections conducted under 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906;
    e. A record from this system of records which indicates a violation 
of civil or criminal law, regulation or order may be referred as a

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:
    Records are maintained on paper and electronic media. The 
electronic records maintained in Oak Ridge, TN, are in a centralized 
database management system that is password protected. Backup tapes of 
the database are generated and maintained at a secure, off site 
location for disaster recovery purposes. During the processing and data 
entry, paper records are temporarily stored in designated business 
offices that are locked when not in use and are accessible only to 
authorized personnel. Upon completion of data entry and processing, the 
paper records are stored in an offsite security storage facility 
accessible only to authorized personnel.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:
    Records are accessed by individual name, social security number, 
date of birth, and/or by licensee name or number.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
    Records managed using REIRS are scheduled under NRC's NUREG-0910, 
Revision 4. Transfer a copy of REIRS data to the National Archives and 
Records Administration every 5 years (2.19.16). Retain Personnel 
monitoring reports and personnel overexposure reports entered into 
REIRS, Paper records, are retained under 2.19.14.a(1). Destroy 2 years 
after data are input into REIRS. ADAMS PDFs and TIFFs are retained 
under 2.19.14.a(4). Cut off electronic files at end of fiscal year.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    In accordance with an interagency agreement, the NRC may disclose 
records to Treasury ARC as a Federal service provider for transactional 
services in the NRC core financial system. In addition to the 
disclosures permitted under subsection (b) of the Privacy Act, the NRC 
may disclose information contained in this system of records without 
the consent of the subject individual if the disclosure is compatible 
with the purpose for which the record was collected under the following 
routine uses or, where determined to be appropriate and necessary, the 
NRC may authorize Treasury ARC to make the disclosure:
    a. To debt collection contractors (31 U.S.C. 3718) or to other 
Federal agencies such as the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) and 
DOI for the purpose of collecting and reporting on delinquent debts as 
authorized by the Debt Collection Act of 1982 or the Debt Collection 
Improvement Act (DCIA) of 1996 and the Digital Accountability and 
Transparency Act (DATA) of 2014;
    b. To Treasury; the Defense Manpower Data Center, Department of 
Defense; the United States Postal Service; government corporations; or 
any other Federal, State, or local agency to conduct an authorized 
computer matching program in compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 
as amended, to identify and locate individuals, including Federal 
employees, who are delinquent in their repayment of certain debts owed 
to the U.S. Government, including those incurred under certain programs 
or services administered by the NRC, in order to collect debts under 
common law or under the provisions of the Debt Collection Act of 1982 
or the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 and DATA of 2014 which 
include by voluntary repayment, administrative or salary offset, and 
referral to debt collection contractors;
    c. To the Department of Justice, United States Attorney Treasury 
ARC, or other Federal agencies for further collection action on any 
delinquent account when circumstances warrant;
    d. To credit reporting agencies/credit bureaus for the purpose of 
either adding to a credit history file or obtaining a credit history 
file or comparable credit information for use in the administration of 
debt collection. As authorized by the DCIA, NRC may report current (not 
delinquent) as well as delinquent consumer and commercial debt to these 
entities in order to aid in the collection of debts, typically by 
providing an incentive to the person to repay the debt timely;
    e. To any Federal agency where the debtor is employed or receiving 
some form of remuneration for the purpose of enabling that agency to 
collect a debt owed the Federal Government on NRC's behalf by 
counseling the debtor for voluntary repayment or by initiating 
administrative or salary offset procedures, or other authorized debt 
collection methods under the provisions of the Debt Collection Act of 
1982 or the DCIA of 1996. Under the DCIA, NRC may garnish non-Federal 
wages of certain delinquent debtors so long as required due process 
procedures are followed. In these instances, NRC's notice to the 
employer will disclose only the information that may be necessary for 
the employer to comply with the withholding order;
    f. To the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) by computer matching to 
obtain the mailing address of a taxpayer for the purpose of locating 
such taxpayer to collect or to compromise a Federal claim by NRC 
against the taxpayer under 26 U.S.C. 6103(m)(2) and under 31 U.S.C. 
3711, 3717, and 3718 or common law. Re-disclosure of a mailing address 
obtained from the IRS may be made only for debt collection purposes, 
including to a debt collection agent to facilitate the collection or 
compromise of a Federal claim under the Debt Collection Act of 1982 or 
the DCIA of 1996, except that re-disclosure of a mailing address to a 
reporting agency is for the limited purpose of obtaining a credit 
report on the particular taxpayer.

[[Page 71561]]

Any mailing address information obtained from the IRS will not be used 
or shared for any other NRC purpose or disclosed by NRC to another 
Federal, State, or local agency which seeks to locate the same taxpayer 
for its own debt collection purposes;
    g. To refer legally enforceable debts to the IRS or to Treasury's 
Debt Management Services to be offset against the debtor's tax refunds 
under the Federal Tax Refund Offset Program;
    h. To prepare W-2, 1099, or other forms or electronic submittals, 
to forward to the IRS and applicable State and local governments for 
tax reporting purposes. Under the provisions of the DCIA, NRC is 
permitted to provide Treasury with Form 1099-C information on 
discharged debts so that Treasury may file the form on NRC's behalf 
with the IRS. W-2 and 1099 Forms contain information on items to be 
considered as income to an individual, including certain travel related 
payments to employees, payments made to persons not treated as 
employees (e.g., fees to consultants and experts), and amounts written-
off as legally or administratively uncollectible, in whole or in part;
    i. To banks enrolled in the Treasury Credit Card Network to collect 
a payment or debt when the individual has given his or her credit card 
number for this purpose;
    j. To another Federal agency that has asked the NRC to effect an 
administrative offset under common law or under 31 U.S.C. 3716 to help 
collect a debt owed the United States. Disclosure under this routine 
use is limited to name, address, SSN, EIN, TIN, ITIN, and other 
information necessary to identify the individual; information about the 
money payable to or held for the individual; and other information 
concerning the administrative offset;
    k. To Treasury or other Federal agencies with whom NRC has entered 
into an agreement establishing the terms and conditions for debt 
collection cross servicing operations on behalf of the NRC to satisfy, 
in whole or in part, debts owed to the U.S. Government. Cross servicing 
includes the possible use of all debt collection tools such as 
administrative offset, tax refund offset, referral to debt collection 
contractors, salary offset, administrative wage garnishment, and 
referral to the Department of Justice. The DCIA of 2014 requires 
agencies to transfer to Treasury or Treasury-designated Debt Collection 
Centers for cross servicing certain nontax debt over 120 days 
delinquent. Treasury has the authority to act in the Federal 
Government's best interest to service, collect, compromise, suspend, or 
terminate collection action under existing laws under which the debts 
arise;
    l. Information on past due, legally enforceable nontax debts more 
than 120 days delinquent will be referred to Treasury for the purpose 
of locating the debtor and/or effecting administrative offset against 
monies payable by the Government to the debtor, or held by the 
Government for the debtor under the DCIA's mandatory, Government-wide 
Treasury Offset Program (TOP). Under TOP, Treasury maintains a database 
of all qualified delinquent nontax debts and works with agencies to 
match by computer their payments against the delinquent debtor database 
in order to divert payments to pay the delinquent debt. Treasury has 
the authority to waive the computer matching requirement for NRC and 
other agencies upon written certification that administrative due 
process notice requirements have been complied with;
    m. For debt collection purposes, NRC may publish or otherwise 
publicly disseminate information regarding the identity of delinquent 
nontax debtors and the existence of the nontax debts under the 
provisions of the DCIA of 1996;
    n. To the Department of Labor (DOL) and the Department of Health 
and Human Services (HHS) to conduct an authorized computer matching 
program in compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, to 
match NRC's debtor records with records of DOL and HHS to obtain names, 
name controls, names of employers, addresses, dates of birth, and TINs. 
The DCIA requires all Federal agencies to obtain taxpayer 
identification numbers from each individual or entity doing business 
with the agency, including applicants and recipients of licenses, 
grants, or benefit payments; contractors; and entities and individuals 
owing fines, fees, or penalties to the agency. NRC will use TINs in 
collecting and reporting any delinquent amounts resulting from the 
activity and in making payments;
    o. If NRC decides or is required to sell a delinquent nontax debt 
under 31 U.S.C. 3711(I), information in this system of records may be 
disclosed to purchasers, potential purchasers, and contractors engaged 
to assist in the sale or to obtain information necessary for potential 
purchasers to formulate bids and information necessary for purchasers 
to pursue collection remedies;
    p. If NRC has current and delinquent collateralized nontax debts 
under 31 U.S.C. 3711(i)(4)(A), certain information in this system of 
records on its portfolio of loans, notes and guarantees, and other 
collateralized debts will be reported to Congress based on standards 
developed by the Office of Management and Budget, in consultation with 
Treasury;
    q. To Treasury in order to request a payment to individuals owed 
money by the NRC;
    r. To the National Archives and Records Administration or to the 
General Services Administration for records management inspections 
conducted under 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906;
    s. A record from this system of records which indicates a violation 
of civil or criminal law, regulation or order may be referred as a 
routine use to a Federal, State, local or foreign agency that has 
authority to investigate, enforce, implement or prosecute such laws. 
Further, a record from this system of records may be disclosed for 
civil or criminal law or regulatory enforcement purposes to another 
agency in response to a written request from that agency's head or an 
official who has been delegated such authority;
    t. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to a Federal, State, local, or foreign agency to obtain 
information relevant to an NRC decision concerning hiring or retaining 
an employee, letting a contract, or issuing a security clearance, 
license, grant or other benefit;
    u. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to a Federal, State, local, or foreign agency requesting a 
record that is relevant and necessary to its decision on a matter of 
hiring or retaining an employee, issuing a security clearance, 
reporting an investigation of an employee, letting a contract, or 
issuing a license, grant, or other benefit;
    v. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use in the course of discovery; in presenting evidence to a 
court, magistrate, administrative tribunal, or grand jury or pursuant 
to a qualifying order from any of those; in alternative dispute 
resolution proceedings, such as arbitration or mediation; or in the 
course of settlement negotiations;
    w. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to a Congressional office from the record of an individual 
in response to an inquiry from the Congressional office made at the 
request of that individual;
    x. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to NRC-paid experts or consultants, and those under 
contract with the NRC on a ``need-to-know'' basis for a purpose within 
the scope of the pertinent NRC task. This access will be granted to an

[[Page 71562]]

NRC contractor or employee of such contractor by a system manager only 
after satisfactory justification has been provided to the system 
manager;
    y. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when (1) NRC 
suspects or has confirmed that there has been a breach of the system of 
records, (2) NRC has determined that as a result of the suspected or 
confirmed breach there is a risk of harm to individuals, NRC (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 NRC efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed 
breach or to prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm; and
    z. A record from this system of records may be disclosed as a 
routine use to another Federal agency or Federal entity, when the NRC 
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) preventing, minimizing, or 
remedying the risk of harm to individuals, the recipient agency or
