ACTION: Notice of a modified system of records. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 AGENCY: As required by the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circulars A–108 and A–130, the Department of Energy (DOE or the SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:42 Sep 10, 2024 Jkt 262001 Department) is publishing notice of a modification to an existing Privacy Act system of records. DOE proposes to amend System of Records DOE–18 Financial Accounting System. This System of Records Notice (SORN) is being modified to align with new formatting requirements, published by OMB, and to ensure appropriate Privacy Act coverage of business processes and Privacy Act information. While there are no substantive changes to the ‘‘Categories of Individuals’’ or ‘‘Categories of Records’’ sections covered by this SORN, substantive changes have been made to the ‘‘System Locations,’’ ‘‘Routine Uses,’’ and ‘‘Administrative, Technical and Physical Safeguards’’ sections to provide greater transparency. Changes to ‘‘Routine Uses’’ include new provisions related to responding to breaches of information held under a Privacy Act SORN as required by OMB’s Memorandum M–17–12, ‘‘Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information’’ (January 3, 2017). Language throughout the SORN has been updated to align with applicable Federal privacy laws, policies, procedures, and best practices. DATES: This modified SORN will become applicable following the end of the public comment period on September 11, 2024 unless comments are received that result in a contrary determination. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to the DOE Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10102, 735 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503, and to Ken Hunt, Chief Privacy Officer, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Rm. 8H–085, Washington, DC 20585, by facsimile at (202) 586–8151, or by email at privacy@hq.doe.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 9, 2009, DOE published a Compilation of its Privacy Act systems of records, which included System of Records DOE–18 Financial Accounting System. This notice proposes amendments to the system locations section of that system of records by removing the following system locations where DOE–18 is no longer applicable: Golden Field Office, National Nuclear PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Security Administration (NNSA) Service Center Albuquerque, Atlanta Regional Support Office, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Idaho Operations Office, National Energy Technology Laboratory (Pittsburg), Naval Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserves, Naval Petroleum and Oil Reserves, Naval Petroleum Reserves in California, NNSA Nevada Site Office, Office of Scientific and Technical Information, Philadelphia Regional Support Office, and Seattle Regional Support Office. In the ‘‘Routine Uses’’ section, this modified notice deletes a previous routine use concerning efforts responding to a suspected or confirmed loss of confidentiality of information as it appears in DOE’s compilation of its Privacy Act systems of records (January 9, 2009) and replaces it with one to assist DOE with responding to a suspected or confirmed breach of its records of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), modeled with language from OMB’s Memorandum M– 17–12, ‘‘Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information’’ (January 3, 2017). Further, this notice adds one new routine use to ensure that DOE may assist another agency or entity in responding to the other agency’s or entity’s confirmed or suspected breach of PII, as appropriate, as aligned with OMB’s Memorandum M–17–12. The ‘‘Categories of Records in the System’’ now includes the following: ‘‘office location, business phone, business cell phone, and business email address.’’ An administrative change required by the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016 extends the length of time a requestor is permitted to file an appeal under the Privacy Act from 30 to 90 days. Both the ‘‘System Locations’’ and ‘‘Administrative, Technical and Physical Safeguards’’ sections have been modified to reflect the Department’s usage of cloud-based services for records storage. Language throughout the SORN has been updated to align with applicable Federal privacy laws, policies, procedures, and best practices. SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER: DOE–18 Financial Accounting System. SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: Unclassified. SYSTEM LOCATION: Systems leveraging this SORN may exist in multiple locations. All systems storing records in a cloud-based server are required to use governmentapproved cloud services and follow National Institute of Standards and E:\FR\FM\11SEN1.SGM 11SEN1
