the safety consequences of novel
automotive technologies that aim to
improve the crash avoidance and/or
occupant protection characteristics of
motor vehicles; and behavioral safety,
which includes safety countermeasures
that pertain to the behavior and actions
of drivers, occupants, and other road
users, including vulnerable populations.
This public meeting is intended to
provide public and stakeholder outreach
regarding research activities at NHTSA
for both vehicle and behavioral safety,
including expected near-term
deliverables. NHTSA technical research
staff will discuss projects recently
concluded or underway and may also

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In accordance with the Privacy Act of
1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of
Transportation (DOT) proposes to
rename, modify and re-issue a DOT
system of records notice to be titled,
‘‘Department of Transportation, Federal
Aviation Administration, DOT/FAA 845
Complaint Intake System.’’
The Notice currently covers FAA
Administrator correspondence and
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:37 Oct 11, 2022
Jkt 259001
hotline records which includes those
who write, call, or are referred to the
Administrator, the Deputy
Administrator, and their immediate
offices; those who write, call, or are
referred to the Secretary, the Deputy
Secretary, and their immediate offices,
and the correspondence which has been
referred to the FAA; individuals who
are the subject of an action requiring
approval or action by one of the
forenamed, such as appeals, actions,
grievances, and applications for waivers
from the FAA. These FAA
correspondence control records will be
subsumed under the DOT/Office of the
Secretary (OST)–041 Correspondence
Control Mail (CCM) SORN.1 This Notice
will cover the intake and processing of
administrator hotlines along with
additional reports of actual or perceived
aviation safety hazards as well as
allegations of violations of criminal,
civil and administrative laws and
regulations, and aviation safety related
orders under the regulatory oversight of
the FAA. These records, hereafter
referred to as ‘‘complaints or complaint
records,’’ originate from members of the
public as well as FAA employees and
contractors. While the information
technology (IT) systems referenced in
the previous Notice, ACCIS, AHIS and
CHIS, are decommissioned, their
records have been subsumed into
different IT systems and continue to be
covered by this updated Notice with the
exception of the correspondence control
files. Records pertaining to the SUP
program, whistleblower complaints and
other aviation safety-related issues, such
as aircraft noise concerns, and
allegations by FAA’s Office of Aviation
Safety (AVS) employees about
individuals and external entities, are
being added to this system of records in
order to consolidate maintenance of
complaint records by the FAA. AVS
employees utilize an internal system to
report their issues whereas others,
including remaining FAA personnel and
members of the public, use external
facing websites to submit their SUP,
whistleblower and other aviation safetyrelated complaints. The records of all
complaint investigations and
resolutions are currently covered by the
updated DOT/FAA 852 Complaint
Investigations System (formerly SUP
Program), while the complaint intake
records are to be covered by this Notice.
Complaint records may include, but are
not limited to, certain personal
1 DOT is in the process of updating the DOT/
OST–041 CCM SORN. Please check the DOT
Privacy Act System of Records Notices page
(Privacy Act System of Records Notices | US

information such as name, address,
phone number, email address, aircraft
registration number, and certificate
number of the reporting individual or
subject of alleged violations.
The following substantive changes
have been made to the Notice:
1. System Name: This Notice updates
the system name to ‘‘DOT/FAA 845
Complaint Intake System’’ to better
reflect the expanded scope of the system
of records created as part of the
complaint intake process under this
Notice.
2. System Location: This Notice
updates the system location to include
the multiple system locations for the
various complaint records added to this
Notice. The additional system locations
include the William J. Hughes Technical
Center (WJHTC) in Atlantic City, New
Jersey, and the facility at 3701
MacIntosh Drive, Warrenton, Virginia.
The complaints submitted by AVS
employees prior to April 2021 are
located at the Mike Monroney
Aeronautical Center (MMAC) in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and the
subsequent records are located at the
MITRE offices at 7525 Colshire Drive,
McLean, Virginia. The previous
reference to the Administrator offices at
the FAA headquarters locations will be
removed from this Notice given
correspondence control records will be
covered by the DOT/OST–041 SORN,
however, the FAA headquarters location
will remain with updated office
information.
3. System Manager: This Notice
updates the system manager information
to reflect the inclusion of records
maintained at the WJHTC in Atlantic
City, New Jersey, the facility at
Warrenton, Virginia, the MMAC in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (pre-April
2021) and the MITRE offices in McLean,
Virginia (April 2021 onward).
Additionally, contact information for
each system manager is included in this
update. The reference in the previous
Notice to the Administrator offices at
the FAA headquarters locations will be
removed from this Notice given
correspondence control records will be
covered by the DOT/OST–041 SORN,
however, the FAA headquarters location
will remain with updated office and
contact information.
4. Authority: This Notice updates the
authorities to include: 49 United States
Code (U.S.C.) 42121 which applies to
discrimination against airline
employees reporting safety concerns/
violations, as well as reporting of other
safety issues covered by 49 U.S.C. 40101
section 341, section 510, section 1210
Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of
1996, and section 180 FAA
E:\FR\FM\12OCN1.SGM
12OCN1
jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 196 / Wednesday, October 12, 2022 / Notices
Reauthorization Act of 2018, and 49
U.S.C. 106(t). 49 U.S.C. 44701, from
DOT/FAA 852, covering the SUP
program, including discussion on safety
and minimum safety standards, will be
added given that SUP complaint intake
records are subsumed into this Notice.
This statute also applies to AVS
personnel complaints and other hotline
records. The previously referenced
authority of 44 U.S.C. 3101 as it pertains
to records containing adequate and
proper documentation of the
organization, functions, policies,
decisions, procedures, and essential
transactions of the agency that are
maintained by heads of agencies, such
as the Administrator and Noise
Ombudsman, will remain in this Notice.
5. Purpose: This Notice updates the
purpose of this System as covering the
records pertaining to the complaint
reports of unsafe or unauthorized
aviation activities concerning the
perceived or actual violations of FAA
regulation, order, or other provision of
Federal law related to aviation safety or
practices, including SUP, whistleblower
and noise complaints. The previous
purpose to provide documentation of
hotline calls will remain with expanded
language, and information related to
correspondence records will be removed
in this Notice.
6. Categories of Individuals: This
Notice updates the categories of
individuals to include complainants,
such as members of the public, FAA
employees and contractors, and other
individuals alleged to have been
involved in the reported alleged
violations or other aviation safety
concerns. These individuals add
clarification to the previously
referenced individuals who write, call
in or are referred to senior agency heads,
as well as correspondence and subjects
of actions requiring approval by these
agency heads.
7. Categories of Records: This Notice
updates the categories of records with
files specific to reports of alleged
violations. The list of personal
information contained in these
complaint records could include names
of complainants and other individuals
involved with the alleged violations,
contact information (phone number,
address, email address), certificate
number, aircraft registration number,
aircraft tail number, and report/case
tracking number (to include, but not
limited to, reference number, case
number, record number, and control
number). The previously referenced
records, such as specific
correspondence files involving senior
agency heads, will be removed from this
Notice.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

8. Records Source Categories: The
Notice updates the records source
categories to clarify that records related
to complaints of alleged violations are
received from complainants, including
members of the public, FAA employees
and contractors, and other federal
agencies. The previously referenced
correspondence by members of the
public to senior agency heads will be
removed from this Notice.
9. Routine Uses: This Notice updates
the routine uses to include the
Department of Transportation’s general
routine uses applicable to this Notice as
they were previously only incorporated
by reference. OMB Memoranda A–108
recommends that agencies include all
routine uses in one notice rather than
incorporating general routine uses by
reference. Therefore, the Department is
replacing the statement in DOT/FAA
845 that referenced the ‘‘Statement of
General Routine Uses’’ with all of the
general routine uses that apply to this
system of records. The routine use
referenced in the previous Notice is
superseded by the departmental routine
uses and will be removed in this update.
This Notice adds new system-specific
routine uses that are compatible with
the purpose of the system of records.
The routine uses include:
a. To the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, U.S. Customs Service, and
the Department of Defense, the initial
SUP complaints received by FAA, for
their use in any civil/criminal
investigations when an FAA suspected
unapproved parts case is initiated. FAA
waits for the go-ahead from these
external entities before proceeding with
any investigation of their own;
b. Routine use (2)(a) and 2(b) apply
only to records pertaining to noise
complaints, and do not apply to
information contained in related hotline
or whistleblower protection complaint
files. Pursuant to routine use 2(a) and
2(b), the FAA may disclose:
i. To airport sponsors, federal
agencies and departments when
necessary to resolve noise complaints of
their manned and unmanned aircraft,
and other operators of aerial landing
and takeoff sites, records relating to
noise complaints stemming from their
flight operations and to ensure
consistency between the FAA and these
entities on noise complaints;
ii. To manned and unmanned aircraft
operators when necessary to resolve a
complaint pertaining to the operator, or
when necessary to ensure consistency
between the FAA and the operator in
responding to noise complaints. Records
disclosed pursuant to this routine use
are limited to the following information:
geolocation only to the extent necessary
PO 00000
Frm 00093
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

to identify the general location of the
noise complaint; time and date of
complaint; and description of the
complaint or inquiry. Complainant
names and contact information will not
be disclosed pursuant to this routine
use; and
c. To officials of labor organizations
recognized under 5 U.S.C. chapter 71,
when relevant and necessary to their
duties of exclusive representation
concerning AVS’s Voluntary Safety
Reporting Program. The FAA analysts
work in conjunction with the labor
organizations in conducting the
investigations of actual or alleged
violations reported by AVS employees.
10. Records Retrieval: This Notice
updates records retrieval to include all
records that can be retrieved by report/
case tracking number (to include, but
not limited to, reference number, case
number, and record number).
Additionally, FAA complaint records
can be retrieved by individual’s name
(including complainant name and
subject of complaint) while noise
complaint records can be retrieved by
individual’s name, email address and
address (street/city/state). This language
supersedes that in the previous Notice.
11. Records Retention and Disposal:
This Notice updates the records
retention and disposal to reflect records
retention timeframes for the new type of
complaints covered by this System.
FAA complaints and whistleblower
records are to be maintained in
accordance with DAA–0237–2019–0012
with cut off after cases are closed and
destruction 3 years after cut off, and the
SUP records maintained in accordance
with DAA–0237–2019–0010 with cut off
at the end of the calendar year in which
cases are closed and destruction 8 years
after cut off. The FAA is adding a new
section to DAA–0237–2019–0012 to
request destruction of noise complaint
records to be 10 years after cut off.
These records will be treated as
permanent records until the temporary
record is approved by the National
Archives and Records Administration
(NARA). Finally, records on AVS
employee reporting on aviation safety
matters are maintained in accordance
with DAA–0237–2019–0012 with
destruction 3 years after cut off (preApril 2021) with subsequent records
collected to be treated as permanent
records until NARA approves the new
records retention request, DAA–0237–
2020–0028, for 15 years. This language
supersedes that in the previous Notice.
12. Records Access: This Notice
updates the record access procedures to
reflect that signatures on signed requests
for records must either be notarized or
accompanied by a statement made
E:\FR\FM\12OCN1.SGM
12OCN1
61652
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 196 / Wednesday, October 12, 2022 / Notices
under penalty of perjury in compliance
with 28 U.S.C. 1746.
The following non-substantive
changes to Records storage,
administrative, technical and physical
safeguards, contesting records
procedures, and notification procedures,
have been made to improve the
transparency and readability of the
Notice:
13. Records Storage: This Notice
updates records storage procedures to
generalize the language.
14. Administrative, Technical and
Physical Safeguards: This Notice
updates the administrative, technical
and physical safeguards to generalize
the language.
15. Contesting Records: This Notice
updates the procedures for contesting
records to refer the individual to the
record access procedures section.
16. Notifications: This Notice updates
the notification procedures to refer the
individual to the record access
procedures section.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a)
governs the means by which the Federal
Government collects, maintains, and
uses personally identifiable information
(PII) in a System of Records. A ‘‘System
of Records’’ is a group of any records
under the control of a Federal agency
from which information about
individuals is retrieved by name or
other personal identifier. The Privacy
Act requires each agency to publish in
the Federal Register a System of
Records Notice (SORN) identifying and
describing each System of Records the
agency maintains, including the
purposes for which the agency uses PII
in the system, the routine uses for
which the agency discloses such
information outside the agency, and
how individuals to whom a Privacy Act
record pertains can exercise their rights
under the Privacy Act (e.g., to determine
if the system contains information about
them and to contest inaccurate
information). In accordance with 5
U.S.C. 552a(r), DOT has provided a
report of this system of records to the
Office of Management and Budget and
to Congress.

Department General Routine Uses:
4. In the event that a system of records
maintained by DOT to carry out its
functions indicates a violation or
potential violation of law, whether civil,
criminal or regulatory in nature, and
whether arising by general statute or
particular program pursuant thereto, the
relevant records in the system of records
may be referred, as a routine use, to the
appropriate agency, whether Federal,
State, local or foreign, charged with the
responsibility of investigating or
prosecuting such violation or charged
with enforcing or implementing the
statute, or rule, regulation, or order
issued pursuant thereto.
5. A record from this system of
records may be disclosed, as a routine
use, to a Federal, State, or local agency
maintaining civil, criminal, or other
relevant enforcement information or
other pertinent information, such as
current licenses, if necessary to obtain
information relevant to a DOT decision
concerning the hiring or retention of an
employee, the issuance of a security
clearance, the letting of a contract, or
the issuance of a license, grant or other
benefit.
6. A record from this system of
records may be disclosed, as a routine
use, to a Federal agency, in response to
its request, in connection with the
hiring or retention of an employee, the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:37 Oct 11, 2022
Jkt 259001
issuance of a security clearance, the
reporting of an investigation of an
employee, the letting of a contract, or
the issuance of a license, grant, or other
benefit by the requesting agency, to the
extent that the information is relevant
and necessary to the requesting agency’s
decision on the matter.
7a. Routine Use for Disclosure for Use
in Litigation. It shall be a routine use of
the records in this system of records to
disclose them to the Department of
Justice or other Federal agency
conducting litigation when (a) DOT, or
any agency thereof, or (b) Any employee
of DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her
official capacity, or (c) Any employee of
DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her
individual capacity, where the
Department of Justice has agreed to
represent the employee, or (d) The
United States or any agency thereof,
where DOT determines that litigation is
likely to affect the United States, is a
party to litigation or has an interest in
such litigation, and the use of such
records by the Department of Justice or
other Federal agency conducting the
litigation is deemed by DOT to be
relevant and necessary in the litigation,
provided, however, that in each case,
DOT determines that disclosure of the
records in the litigation is a use of the
information contained in the records
that is compatible with the purpose for
which the records were collected.
7b. Routine Use for Agency Disclosure
in Other Proceedings. It shall be a
routine use of records in this system to
disclose them in proceedings before any
court or adjudicative or administrative
body before which DOT or any agency
thereof, appears, when (a) DOT, or any
agency thereof, or (b) Any employee of
DOT or any agency thereof in his/her
official capacity, or (c) Any employee of
DOT or any agency thereof in his/her
individual capacity where DOT has
agreed to represent the employee, or (d)
The United States or any agency thereof,
where DOT determines that the
proceeding is likely to affect the United
States, is a party to the proceeding or
has an interest in such proceeding, and
DOT determines that use of such
records is relevant and necessary in the
proceeding, provided, however, that in
each case, DOT determines that
disclosure of the records in the
proceeding is a use of the information
contained in the records that is
compatible with the purpose for which
the records were collected.
8. The information contained in this
system of records will be disclosed to
the Office of Management and Budget,
OMB in connection with the review of
private relief legislation as set forth in
OMB Circular No. A–19 at any stage of
PO 00000
Frm 00095
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
61653
the legislative coordination and
clearance process as set forth in that
Circular.
9. Disclosure may be made 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. In such
cases, however, the Congressional office
does not have greater rights to records
than the individual. Thus, the
disclosure may be withheld from
delivery to the individual where the file
contains investigative or actual
information or other materials which are
being used, or are expected to be used,
to support prosecution or fines against
the individual for alleged violations of
a statute, or of regulations of the
Department based on statutory
authority. No such limitations apply to
records requested for Congressional
oversight or legislative purposes; release
is authorized under 49 CFR 10.35(9).
10. One or more records from a
system of records may be disclosed
routinely to the National Archives and
Records Administration in records
management inspections being
conducted under the authority of 44
U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
11. Routine Use for disclosure to the
Coast Guard and to Transportation
Security Administration. A record from
this system of records may be disclosed
as a routine use to the Coast Guard and
to the Transportation Security
Administration if information from this
system was shared with either agency
when that agency was a component of
the Department of Transportation before
its transfer to the Department of
Homeland Security and such disclosure
is necessary to accomplish a DOT, TSA
or Coast Guard function related to this
system of records.
12. DOT may make available to
another agency or instrumentality of any
government jurisdiction, including State
and local governments, listings of names
from any system of records in DOT for
use in law enforcement activities, either
civil or criminal, or to expose fraudulent
claims, regardless of the stated purpose
for the collection of the information in
the system of records. These
enforcement activities are generally
referred to as matching programs
because two lists of names are checked
for match using automated assistance.
This routine use is advisory in nature
and does not offer unrestricted access to
systems of records for such law
enforcement and related antifraud
activities. Each request will be
considered on the basis of its purpose,
merits, cost effectiveness and
alternatives using Instructions on
reporting computer matching programs

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF
RECORDS:
Records are stored in electronic
databases and/or hard copy files.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF
RECORDS:
All complaint records can be retrieved
by report/case tracking number (to
include, but not limited to, reference
number, case number, record number,
and control number). FAA Hotline
complaint records, including
whistleblower records, can be retrieved
by individual’s name, and noise
complaint records can be retrieved by
individual’s name, email address and
address (street/city/state).
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND
DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
FAA will maintain hotline complaint
records, including whistleblower
records, in accordance with DAA–0237–
2019–0012 with cut off after cases are
closed and destruction 3 years after cut
off, SUP records in accordance with
PO 00000
Frm 00096
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
DAA–0237–2019–0010 with cut off at
the end of the calendar year in which
cases are closed and destruction 8 years
after cut off, and AVS employee safety
reporting records in accordance with
DAA–0237–2019–0012 with destruction
3 years after cut off (pre-April 2021).
The new retention schedule, DAA–
0237–2020–0028, for the AVS employee
safety reporting records (April 2021
onward) is still pending at NARA, so the
FAA will treat these records as
permanent records until it receives an
approval of record disposition authority
for the 15-year retention request.
Additionally, the FAA is adding a new
section to DAA–0237–2019–0012 to
request destruction of noise complaint
records to be 10 years after cut off with
records to be treated as permanent
records until approval of the new
schedule by NARA.

allegations that need to be identified in the Notice for purposes of
transparency and accountability by FAA. These expanded reports are of
actual or perceived aviation safety hazards and potential violations of
criminal, civil and administrative laws and regulations, and aviation
safety related orders under the regulatory oversight of the FAA. The
Suspected Unapproved Program (SUP) complaint intake records covered by
the former DOT/FAA 852 SUP Program SORN will be subsumed
[[Page 61650]]
by this Notice. The records of the complaint investigations and
resolutions will be covered by the updated DOT/FAA 852 Complaint
Investigations System (formerly SUP Program) SORN, while the complaint
intake will be covered by this Notice.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before November 14,
2022. The Department may publish an amended SORN in light of any

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the
Department of Transportation (DOT) proposes to rename, modify and re-
issue a DOT system of records notice to be titled, ``Department of
Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, DOT/FAA 845 Complaint
Intake System.''
The Notice currently covers FAA Administrator correspondence and
hotline records which includes those who write, call, or are referred
to the Administrator, the Deputy Administrator, and their immediate
offices; those who write, call, or are referred to the Secretary, the
Deputy Secretary, and their immediate offices, and the correspondence
which has been referred to the FAA; individuals who are the subject of
an action requiring approval or action by one of the forenamed, such as
appeals, actions, grievances, and applications for waivers from the
FAA. These FAA correspondence control records will be subsumed under
the DOT/Office of the Secretary (OST)-041 Correspondence Control Mail
(CCM) SORN.\1\ This Notice will cover the intake and processing of
administrator hotlines along with additional reports of actual or
perceived aviation safety hazards as well as allegations of violations
of criminal, civil and administrative laws and regulations, and
aviation safety related orders under the regulatory oversight of the
FAA. These records, hereafter referred to as ``complaints or complaint
records,'' originate from members of the public as well as FAA
employees and contractors. While the information technology (IT)
systems referenced in the previous Notice, ACCIS, AHIS and CHIS, are
decommissioned, their records have been subsumed into different IT
systems and continue to be covered by this updated Notice with the
exception of the correspondence control files. Records pertaining to
the SUP program, whistleblower complaints and other aviation safety-
related issues, such as aircraft noise concerns, and allegations by
FAA's Office of Aviation Safety (AVS) employees about individuals and
external entities, are being added to this system of records in order
to consolidate maintenance of complaint records by the FAA. AVS
employees utilize an internal system to report their issues whereas
others, including remaining FAA personnel and members of the public,
use external facing websites to submit their SUP, whistleblower and
other aviation safety-related complaints. The records of all complaint
investigations and resolutions are currently covered by the updated
DOT/FAA 852 Complaint Investigations System (formerly SUP Program),
while the complaint intake records are to be covered by this Notice.
Complaint records may include, but are not limited to, certain personal
information such as name, address, phone number, email address,
aircraft registration number, and certificate number of the reporting
individual or subject of alleged violations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ DOT is in the process of updating the DOT/OST-041 CCM SORN.
Please check the DOT Privacy Act System of Records Notices page
(Privacy Act System of Records Notices [verbar] US Department of
Transportation) for the current status of the update.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following substantive changes have been made to the Notice:
1. System Name: This Notice updates the system name to ``DOT/FAA
845 Complaint Intake System'' to better reflect the expanded scope of
the system of records created as part of the complaint intake process
under this Notice.
2. System Location: This Notice updates the system location to
include the multiple system locations for the various complaint records
added to this Notice. The additional system locations include the
William J. Hughes Technical Center (WJHTC) in Atlantic City, New
Jersey, and the facility at 3701 MacIntosh Drive, Warrenton, Virginia.
The complaints submitted by AVS employees prior to April 2021 are
located at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) in Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma, and the subsequent records are located at the MITRE
offices at 7525 Colshire Drive, McLean, Virginia. The previous
reference to the Administrator offices at the FAA headquarters
locations will be removed from this Notice given correspondence control
records will be covered by the DOT/OST-041 SORN, however, the FAA
headquarters location will remain with updated office information.
3. System Manager: This Notice updates the system manager
information to reflect the inclusion of records maintained at the WJHTC
in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the facility at Warrenton, Virginia, the
MMAC in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (pre-April 2021) and the MITRE offices
in McLean, Virginia (April 2021 onward). Additionally, contact
information for each system manager is included in this update. The
reference in the previous Notice to the Administrator offices at the
FAA headquarters locations will be removed from this Notice given
correspondence control records will be covered by the DOT/OST-041 SORN,
however, the FAA headquarters location will remain with updated office
and contact information.
4. Authority: This Notice updates the authorities to include: 49
United States Code (U.S.C.) 42121 which applies to discrimination
against airline employees reporting safety concerns/violations, as well
as reporting of other safety issues covered by 49 U.S.C. 40101 section
341, section 510, section 1210 Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of
1996, and section 180 FAA
[[Page 61651]]
Reauthorization Act of 2018, and 49 U.S.C. 106(t). 49 U.S.C. 44701,
from DOT/FAA 852, covering the SUP program, including discussion on
safety and minimum safety standards, will be added given that SUP
complaint intake records are subsumed into this Notice. This statute
also applies to AVS personnel complaints and other hotline records. The
previously referenced authority of 44 U.S.C. 3101 as it pertains to
records containing adequate and proper documentation of the
organization, functions, policies, decisions, procedures, and essential
transactions of the agency that are maintained by heads of agencies,
such as the Administrator and Noise Ombudsman, will remain in this
Notice.
5. Purpose: This Notice updates the purpose of this System as
covering the records pertaining to the complaint reports of unsafe or
unauthorized aviation activities concerning the perceived or actual
violations of FAA regulation, order, or other provision of Federal law
related to aviation safety or practices, including SUP, whistleblower
and noise complaints. The previous purpose to provide documentation of
hotline calls will remain with expanded language, and information
related to correspondence records will be removed in this Notice.
6. Categories of Individuals: This Notice updates the categories of
individuals to include complainants, such as members of the public, FAA
employees and contractors, and other individuals alleged to have been
involved in the reported alleged violations or other aviation safety
concerns. These individuals add clarification to the previously
referenced individuals who write, call in or are referred to senior
agency heads, as well as correspondence and subjects of actions
requiring approval by these agency heads.
7. Categories of Records: This Notice updates the categories of
records with files specific to reports of alleged violations. The list
of personal information contained in these complaint records could
include names of complainants and other individuals involved with the
alleged violations, contact information (phone number, address, email
address), certificate number, aircraft registration number, aircraft
tail number, and report/case tracking number (to include, but not
limited to, reference number, case number, record number, and control
number). The previously referenced records, such as specific
correspondence files involving senior agency heads, will be removed
from this Notice.
8. Records Source Categories: The Notice updates the records source
categories to clarify that records related to complaints of alleged
violations are received from complainants, including members of the
public, FAA employees and contractors, and other federal agencies. The
previously referenced correspondence by members of the public to senior
agency heads will be removed from this Notice.
9. Routine Uses: This Notice updates the routine uses to include
the Department of Transportation's general routine uses applicable to
this Notice as they were previously only incorporated by reference. OMB
Memoranda A-108 recommends that agencies include all routine uses in
one notice rather than incorporating general routine uses by reference.
Therefore, the Department is replacing the statement in DOT/FAA 845
that referenced the ``Statement of General Routine Uses'' with all of
the general routine uses that apply to this system of records. The
routine use referenced in the previous Notice is superseded by the
departmental routine uses and will be removed in this update. This
Notice adds new system-specific routine uses that are compatible with
the purpose of the system of records. The routine uses include:
a. To the Federal Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Customs Service,
and the Department of Defense, the initial SUP complaints received by
FAA, for their use in any civil/criminal investigations when an FAA
suspected unapproved parts case is initiated. FAA waits for the go-
ahead from these external entities before proceeding with any
investigation of their own;
b. Routine use (2)(a) and 2(b) apply only to records pertaining to
noise complaints, and do not apply to information contained in related
hotline or whistleblower protection complaint files. Pursuant to
routine use 2(a) and 2(b), the FAA may disclose:
i. To airport sponsors, federal agencies and departments when
necessary to resolve noise complaints of their manned and unmanned
aircraft, and other operators of aerial landing and takeoff sites,
records relating to noise complaints stemming from their flight
operations and to ensure consistency between the FAA and these entities
on noise complaints;
ii. To manned and unmanned aircraft operators when necessary to
resolve a complaint pertaining to the operator, or when necessary to
ensure consistency between the FAA and the operator in responding to
noise complaints. Records disclosed pursuant to this routine use are
limited to the following information: geolocation only to the extent
necessary to identify the general location of the noise complaint; time
and date of complaint; and description of the complaint or inquiry.
Complainant names and contact information will not be disclosed
pursuant to this routine use; and
c. To officials of labor organizations recognized under 5 U.S.C.
chapter 71, when relevant and necessary to their duties of exclusive
representation concerning AVS's Voluntary Safety Reporting Program. The
FAA analysts work in conjunction with the labor organizations in
conducting the investigations of actual or alleged violations reported
by AVS employees.
10. Records Retrieval: This Notice updates records retrieval to
include all records that can be retrieved by report/case tracking
number (to include, but not limited to, reference number, case number,
and record number). Additionally, FAA complaint records can be
retrieved by individual's name (including complainant name and subject
of complaint) while noise complaint records can be retrieved by
individual's name, email address and address (street/city/state). This
language supersedes that in the previous Notice.
11. Records Retention and Disposal: This Notice updates the records
retention and disposal to reflect records retention timeframes for the
new type of complaints covered by this System. FAA complaints and
whistleblower records are to be maintained in accordance with DAA-0237-
2019-0012 with cut off after cases are closed and destruction 3 years
after cut off, and the SUP records maintained in accordance with DAA-
0237-2019-0010 with cut off at the end of the calendar year in which
cases are closed and destruction 8 years after cut off. The FAA is
adding a new section to DAA-0237-2019-0012 to request destruction of
noise complaint records to be 10 years after cut off. These records
will be treated as permanent records until the temporary record is
approved by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
Finally, records on AVS employee reporting on aviation safety matters
are maintained in accordance with DAA-0237-2019-0012 with destruction 3
years after cut off (pre-April 2021) with subsequent records collected
to be treated as permanent records until NARA approves the new records
retention request, DAA-0237-2020-0028, for 15 years. This language
supersedes that in the previous Notice.
12. Records Access: This Notice updates the record access
procedures to reflect that signatures on signed requests for records
must either be notarized or accompanied by a statement made
[[Page 61652]]
under penalty of perjury in compliance with 28 U.S.C. 1746.
The following non-substantive changes to Records storage,
administrative, technical and physical safeguards, contesting records
procedures, and notification procedures, have been made to improve the
transparency and readability of the Notice:
13. Records Storage: This Notice updates records storage procedures
to generalize the language.
14. Administrative, Technical and Physical Safeguards: This Notice
updates the administrative, technical and physical safeguards to
generalize the language.
15. Contesting Records: This Notice updates the procedures for
contesting records to refer the individual to the record access
procedures section.
16. Notifications: This Notice updates the notification procedures
to refer the individual to the record access procedures section.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) governs the means by which the
Federal Government collects, maintains, and uses personally
identifiable information (PII) in a System of Records. A ``System of
Records'' is a group of any records under the control of a Federal
agency from which information about individuals is retrieved by name or
other personal identifier. The Privacy Act requires each agency to
publish in the Federal Register a System of Records Notice (SORN)
identifying and describing each System of Records the agency maintains,
including the purposes for which the agency uses PII in the system, the
routine uses for which the agency discloses such information outside
the agency, and how individuals to whom a Privacy Act record pertains
can exercise their rights under the Privacy Act (e.g., to determine if
the system contains information about them and to contest inaccurate
information). In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), DOT has provided a
report of this system of records to the Office of Management and Budget
and to Congress.

Safety Reporting Program.
Department General Routine Uses:
4. In the event that a system of records maintained by DOT to carry
out its functions indicates a violation or potential violation of law,
whether civil, criminal or regulatory in nature, and whether arising by
general statute or particular program pursuant thereto, the relevant
records in the system of records may be referred, as a routine use, to
the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local or foreign,
charged with the responsibility of investigating or prosecuting such
violation or charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, or
rule, regulation, or order issued pursuant thereto.
5. A record from this system of records may be disclosed, as a
routine use, to a Federal, State, or local agency maintaining civil,
criminal, or other relevant enforcement information or other pertinent
information, such as current licenses, if necessary to obtain
information relevant to a DOT decision concerning the hiring or
retention of an employee, the issuance of a security clearance, the
letting of a contract, or the issuance of a license, grant or other
benefit.
6. A record from this system of records may be disclosed, as a
routine use, to a Federal agency, in response to its request, in
connection with the hiring or retention of an employee, the issuance of
a security clearance, the reporting of an investigation of an employee,
the letting of a contract, or the issuance of a license, grant, or
other benefit by the requesting agency, to the extent that the
information is relevant and necessary to the requesting agency's
decision on the matter.
7a. Routine Use for Disclosure for Use in Litigation. It shall be a
routine use of the records in this system of records to disclose them
to the Department of Justice or other Federal agency conducting
litigation when (a) DOT, or any agency thereof, or (b) Any employee of
DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her official capacity, or (c) Any
employee of DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her individual capacity,
where the Department of Justice has agreed to represent the employee,
or (d) The United States or any agency thereof, where DOT determines
that litigation is likely to affect the United States, is a party to
litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and the use of such
records by the Department of Justice or other Federal agency conducting
the litigation is deemed by DOT to be relevant and necessary in the
litigation, provided, however, that in each case, DOT determines that
disclosure of the records in the litigation is a use of the information
contained in the records that is compatible with the purpose for which
the records were collected.
7b. Routine Use for Agency Disclosure in Other Proceedings. It
shall be a routine use of records in this system to disclose them in
proceedings before any court or adjudicative or administrative body
before which DOT or any agency thereof, appears, when (a) DOT, or any
agency thereof, or (b) Any employee of DOT or any agency thereof in
his/her official capacity, or (c) Any employee of DOT or any agency
thereof in his/her individual capacity where DOT has agreed to
represent the employee, or (d) The United States or any agency thereof,
where DOT determines that the proceeding is likely to affect the United
States, is a party to the proceeding or has an interest in such
proceeding, and DOT determines that use of such records is relevant and
necessary in the proceeding, provided, however, that in each case, DOT
determines that disclosure of the records in the proceeding is a use of
the information contained in the records that is compatible with the
purpose for which the records were collected.
8. The information contained in this system of records will be
disclosed to the Office of Management and Budget, OMB in connection
with the review of private relief legislation as set forth in OMB
Circular No. A-19 at any stage of the legislative coordination and
clearance process as set forth in that Circular.
9. Disclosure may be made 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. In such cases, however,
the Congressional office does not have greater rights to records than
the individual. Thus, the disclosure may be withheld from delivery to
the individual where the file contains investigative or actual
information or other materials which are being used, or are expected to
be used, to support prosecution or fines against the individual for
alleged violations of a statute, or of regulations of the Department
based on statutory authority. No such limitations apply to records
requested for Congressional oversight or legislative purposes; release
is authorized under 49 CFR 10.35(9).
10. One or more records from a system of records may be disclosed
routinely to the National Archives and Records Administration in
records management inspections being conducted under the authority of
44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
11. Routine Use for disclosure to the Coast Guard and to
Transportation Security Administration. A record from this system of
records may be disclosed as a routine use to the Coast Guard and to the
Transportation Security Administration if information from this system
was shared with either agency when that agency was a component of the
Department of Transportation before its transfer to the Department of
Homeland Security and such disclosure is necessary to accomplish a DOT,
TSA or Coast Guard function related to this system of records.
12. DOT may make available to another agency or instrumentality of
any government jurisdiction, including State and local governments,
listings of names from any system of records in DOT for use in law
enforcement activities, either civil or criminal, or to expose
fraudulent claims, regardless of the stated purpose for the collection
of the information in the system of records. These enforcement
activities are generally referred to as matching programs because two
lists of names are checked for match using automated assistance. This
routine use is advisory in nature and does not offer unrestricted
access to systems of records for such law enforcement and related
antifraud activities. Each request will be considered on the basis of
its purpose, merits, cost effectiveness and alternatives using
Instructions on reporting computer matching programs
[[Page 61654]]
to the Office of Management and Budget, OMB, Congress, and the public,
published by the Director, OMB, dated September 20, 1989.
13. It shall be a routine use of the information in any DOT system
of records to provide to the Attorney General of the United States, or
his/her designee, information indicating that a person meets any of the
disqualifications for receipt, possession, shipment, or transport of a
firearm under the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. In case of a
dispute concerning the validity of the information provided by DOT to
the Attorney General, or his/her designee, it shall be a routine use of
the information in any DOT system of records to make any disclosures of
such information to the National Background Information Check System,
established by the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, as may be
necessary to resolve such dispute.
14a. To appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when (1) DOT
suspects or has confirmed that there has been a breach of the system of
records; (2) DOT has determined that as a result of the suspected or
confirmed breach there is a risk of harm to individuals, DOT (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 DOT's efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed
breach or to prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.
14b. To another Federal agency or Federal entity, when DOT
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
entity (including its information systems, programs, and operations),
the Federal Government, or national security, resulting from a
suspected or confirmed breach.
15. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use, to
the Office of Government Information Services for the purpose of (a)
resolving disputes between FOIA requesters and Federal agencies and (b)
reviewing agencies' policies, procedures, and compliance in order to
recommend policy changes to Congress and the President.
16. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use, to
contractors and their agents, experts, consultants, and others
performing or working on a contract, service, cooperative agreement, or
other assignment for DOT, when necessary to accomplish an agency
function related to this system of records.
17. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use, to
an agency, organization, or individual for the purpose of performing
audit or oversight operations related to this system of records, but
only such records as are necessary and relevant to the audit or
oversight activity. This routine use does not apply to intra-agency
sharing authorized under Section (b)(1) of the Privacy Act.
18. DOT may disclose from this system, as a routine use, records
consisting of, or relating to, terrorism information (6 U.S.C.
485(a)(5)), homeland security information (6 U.S.C. 482(f)(1)), or Law
enforcement information (Guideline 2 Report attached to White House
Memorandum, ``Information Sharing Environment, November 22, 2006) to a
Federal, State, local, tribal, territorial, foreign government and/or
multinational agency, either in response to its request or upon the
initiative of the Component, for purposes of sharing such information
as is necessary and relevant for the agencies to detect, prevent,
disrupt, preempt, and mitigate the effects of terrorist activities
against the territory, people, and interests of the United States of
America, as contemplated by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism
Prevention Act of 2004 (Pub. L. 108-458) and Executive Order 13388
(October 25, 2005).
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:
Records are stored in electronic databases and/or hard copy files.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:
All complaint records can be retrieved by report/case tracking
number (to include, but not limited to, reference number, case number,
record number, and control number). FAA Hotline complaint records,
including whistleblower records, can be retrieved by individual's name,
and noise complaint records can be retrieved by individual's name,
email address and address (street/city/state).
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
FAA will maintain hotline complaint records, including
whistleblower records, in accordance with DAA-0237-2019-0012 with cut
off after cases are closed and destruction 3 years after cut off, SUP
records in accordance with DAA-0237-2019-0010 with cut off at the end
of the calendar year in which cases are closed and destruction 8 years
after cut off, and AVS employee safety reporting records in accordance
with DAA-0237-2019-0012 with destruction 3 years after cut off (pre-
April 2021). The new retention schedule, DAA-0237-2020-0028, for the
AVS employee safety reporting records (April 2021 onward) is still
pending at NARA, so the FAA will treat these records as permanent
records until it receives an approval of record disposition authority
for the 15-year retention request. Additionally, the FAA is adding a
new section to DAA-0237-2019-0012 to request destruction of noise
complaint records to be 10 years after cut off with records to be
treated as permanent records until approval of the new schedule by
NARA.
ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
Records in this system are safeguarded in accordance with
applicable rules and policies, including all applicable DOT automated
systems security and access policies. Strict controls have been imposed
to minimize the risk of compromising the information that is being
stored. Access to records in this system is limited to those
individuals who have a need to know the information for the performance
of their official duties and who have appropriate clearances or
permissions.
RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
Individuals seeking notification of whether this system of records
contains information about them may contact the System Manager at the
