I. Comments
FHFA seeks public comments on a
new system of records and will take all
comments into consideration. See 5
U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11). In addition to
referencing ‘‘Comments/No. 2022–N–

Government-Sponsored Enterprise

FHFA will make all comments timely
received available for examination by
the public through the electronic
comment docket for this notice, which
is located on the FHFA website at
https://www.fhfa.gov. All comments
received will be posted without change
and will include any personal
information you provide, such as name,
address (mailing and email), telephone
numbers, and any other information you
provide.
II. Introduction
This notice informs the public of
FHFA’s proposal to establish and
maintain a new system of records. This
notice satisfies the Privacy Act
requirement that an agency publishes a
system of records notice in the Federal
Register when establishing a new or
making a significant change to an
agency’s system of records. Congress has
recognized that application of all
requirements of the Privacy Act to
certain categories of records may have
an undesirable and often unacceptable
effect upon agencies in the conduct of
necessary public business.
Consequently, Congress established
general exemptions and specific
exemptions that could be used to
exempt records from provisions of the
Privacy Act. Congress also required that
exempting records from provisions of
the Privacy Act would require the head
of an agency to publish a determination
to exempt a record from the Privacy Act
as a rule in accordance with the
Administrative Procedure Act. Records
and information in this system of
records are not exempt from the
requirements of the Privacy Act.

perdiem. GSA bases the maximum
lodging allowance rates on average daily
rate, a widely accepted lodging industry
measure, less five percent. If a
maximum lodging allowance rate and/or
a meals and incidental expenses (M&IE)
per diem reimbursement rate is
insufficient to meet necessary expenses
in any given CONUS location, Federal
executive agencies can request that GSA
review that location. Please review
questions six and seven of GSA’s per
diem Frequently Asked Questions page
at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem for
more information on the special review
process. In addition, the Federal Travel
Regulation (FTR) allows for actual
expense reimbursement as provided in
§§ 301–11.300 through 301–11.306.
For FY 2023, no new non-standard
area locations were added. Maximum
lodging allowance rates in some existing
per diem localities will increase and the
standard CONUS lodging rate will
increase from $96 to $98. The M&IE per
diem tiers for FY 2023 are unchanged at
$59–$79, with the standard M&IE rate
unchanged at $59.
Other than the changes posted on the
GSA website, notices published
periodically in the Federal Register now
constitute the only notification of
revisions in CONUS per diem
reimbursement rates to agencies.
