Type: Notice

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security proposes to amend a current Department of Homeland Security system of records titled, ``Department of Homeland Security/ Immigration and Customs Enforcement-005 Trade Transparency Analysis and Research (TTAR) System of Records.'' This system of records is being modified to include new categories of individuals, categories of records, and purposes. The system is also being updated to update, consolidate, and clarify the existing routine uses, to reflect a proposed change to the retention period of the system's data, and to update and simplify the description of the record sources. The data in the TTAR system of records is generally maintained in the ICE Data Analysis and Research Trade Transparency System (DARTTS), which is a software application and data repository that conducts analysis of trade and financial data to identify statistically anomalous transactions that may warrant investigation for money laundering or other import-export crimes. Additionally, an update to the Privacy Impact Assessment for DARTTS has been posted on the Department's privacy web site (see www.dhs.gov/privacy). The exemptions for the existing system of records notice will continue to be applicable for this system of records notice. This updated system will be included in the Department of Homeland Security's inventory of record systems.
