SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    NASA hosts/sponsors numerous events on federally owned/leased 
property which are open to NASA affiliates and members of the public. 
The events include but are not limited to meetings, conferences, 
briefings, public outreach activities, tours, focus groups, etc. 
Visitor access is substantiated by a credentialed NASA sponsor who 
validates the visitor's need to access a building/area, guest 
networking services, etc. for a specific event/purpose. Information is 
collected to validate identity and enable intermittent access to 
activities.
    Currently, visitor registration is accomplished via several 
electronic and paper processes. The NASA Office of Protective Services 
is transitioning to a one-NASA process to manage access for visitors 
with an affiliation less than 30-days.
    NASA may collect event registration information to include but not 
limited to a visitor's name, address, citizenship, biometric data, 
purpose of visit, the location to be visited, escort/sponsor name with 
contact data, and preferred meeting/event sessions when options are 
available. When parking is provided on federal owned/leased space, 
driver's license information as well as vehicle make/model/tag 
information will be collected.
    When visitors/vendors are permitted to bring equipment and/or event 
set-up materials such as booths and displays, information will be 
collected to issue property passes and coordinate equipment/property 
delivery. Information will also be collected, when applicable, to 
include other associated requirements such as electrical power needs, 
internet access, etc.
    NASA collects, stores, and secures information from individuals 
requiring routine and intermittent access in a manner consistent with 
the Constitution and applicable laws, including the Privacy Act (5 
U.S.C. 552a) and the Paperwork Reduction Act.
