Defense Threat Reduction Agency Privacy Program
Document Number: 2019-19168
Type: Rule
Date: 2019-09-05
Agency: Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary
This final rule removes the Department of Defense (DoD) regulation concerning the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Privacy Program. On April 11, 2019, DoD published a revised DoD-level Privacy Program rule, which contains the necessary information for an agency-wide privacy program regulation under the Privacy Act and now serves as the single Privacy Program rule for the Department. That revised Privacy Program rule also includes all DoD component exemption rules. Therefore, this part is now unnecessary and may be removed from the CFR.

Agency: Department of Transportation, Office of the Secretary
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Transportation proposes to issue a new Department of Transportation system of records titled, ``Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration-011Military Under 21 Pilot Program System of Records.'' FMCSA is required by Section 5404 of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act, 2015 (FAST Act), to conduct a pilot program to allow 18- to 20-year-old persons with military driving experience to operate CMVs in interstate commerce. The pilot program seeks to determine the safety benefits or risks posed by military service members aged 18, 19, and 20 with specialized training in heavy vehicle operations operating a freight-carrying CMV in interstate commerce as compared to current entry-level commercial motor vehicle drivers aged 21-24 when operating a freight-carrying CMV in interstate commerce. The goal of this pilot program is to determine whether the group of under-21 military CDL holders operating in interstate commerce have similar or better safety performance outcomes than the 21-24 year old entry level drivers operating in interstate commerce. The information collected as part of the pilot program is necessary to: (1) Determine the eligibility of drivers to participate in the pilot program; (2) effectively implement and monitor the pilot program, given that participating under-21 military drivers will be participating with an exemption; (3) contact drivers if necessary throughout the pilot program (e.g., for follow-on questions or clarification on data), and (4) to conduct analysis on the safety performance of the participating drivers and make safety decisions accordingly. Specific details concerning eligibility for pilot program participation were previously published at 81 FR 56745 (September 21, 2016); 83 FR 31631 (July 6, 2018); and 83 FR 60950 (November 27, 2018). Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 31315(c)(3) and 49 CFR 381.515, the FMCSA Administrator has the authority to immediately revoke the participation of a motor carrier, CMV, or driver in the Under 21 Military Pilot Program for failure to comply with the program's terms and conditions. Participation in the Under 21 Military Pilot Program does not provide for any right, entitlement, or benefit.
