Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), the Department of Justice (DOJ), Tax Division, is modifying the following systems of records, ``Tax Division Central Classification Cards, Index Docket Cards, and Associated RecordsCriminal Tax Cases, Justice/TAX- 001,'' previously published in full on February 20, 1998, (63 FR 8659) and amended on March 29, 2001 (66 FR 17200); ``Tax Division Central Classification Cards, Index Docket Cards, and Associated RecordsCivil Tax Cases, Justice/TAX-002,'' previously published in full on February 20, 1998, (63 FR 8659) and amended on March 29, 2001 (66 FR 17200); ``Files of Applications for Attorney with the Tax Division, Justice/ TAX-003,'' previously published on September 30, 1977, (42 FR 53390); and to eliminate the system of records, ``Tax Division Special Projects File, Justice/TAX-005,'' previously published on September 30, 1977 (42 FR 53391). Specifically, the Justice/TAX-001 modifications are intended to change the system name; to disclose additional details as to what data is kept in paper-based files and in electronic-based files; to provide additional details as to how access to confidential taxpayer-related information and tax enforcement-related information is managed; to expand the categories of routine uses; to clarify the policies and practices through which the Justice/TAX-001 records are stored and retrieved; and to reflect the adoption of an electronic timekeeping function for Tax Division staff. The Justice/TAX-002 modifications are intended to change the system name; to disclose additional details as to what data is kept in paper- based files and in electronic-based files; to provide additional details as to how access to confidential taxpayer-related information and tax enforcement-related information is managed; to expand the categories of routine uses; and to reflect the adoption of an electronic timekeeping function for Tax Division staff. The Justice/TAX-003 modifications are intended to change the system name, to include non-attorney applications; to disclose additional details as to what type of applicant information is maintained; and to show how access to applicant information is managed. Exemptions from the Privacy Act are claimed for this system of records and a separate Final Rule is published in today's Federal Register. The deletion of Justice/TAX-005 is intended to eliminate a redundancy: many elements of Justice/TAX-005 system descriptions and the basis for its descriptionscriminal tax enforcementare shared by Justice/TAX-001. Accordingly, the Tax Division believes it is appropriate to add the ``Special Projects'' to the Justice/TAX-001 system name, to incorporate the relevant elements of Justice/TAX-005 into Justice/TAX-001, and to delete Justice/TAX-005 on the effective date of the revised system notice for Justice/TAX-001.

The Department of Justice, Tax Division, is amending 28 CFR part 16 to exempt a newly revised Privacy Act system of records entitled ``Files of Applicants For Attorney and Non-Attorney Positions with the Tax Division, Justice/TAX-003,'' as described in today's notice section of the Federal Register, from 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3) and (d)(1). The exemptions will be applied only to the extent that information in a record is subject to exemption pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(5). The exemptions are necessary to protect the confidentiality of employment records. The Department also is deleting as obsolete provisions exempting two former Tax Division systems of records: ``Freedom of Information/Privacy Act Request Files, Justice/TAX-004;'' and ``Tax Division Special Project Files, Justice/TAX-005.'' The records in TAX-004 are now covered by a Departmentwide system notice, ``Freedom of Information Act, Privacy Act, and Mandatory Declassification Review Requests and Administrative Appeals, DOJ-004''. The relevant records in TAX-005 are now part of the revised system entitled ``Criminal Tax Case Files, Special Project Files, Docket Cards, and Associated Records, Justice/TAX-001.''
