Abstract
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is establishing a new Department-wide system of records titled, "Defense Reasonable Accommodation and Assistive Technology Records," DoD 0007. This system of records covers the DoD's maintenance of records about DoD civilian personnel and other individuals requesting or receiving reasonable accommodations or personal assistance services, and wounded, ill and injured Service Members on Active Duty requesting or receiving assistive technology solutions, hereafter referred to collectively as disability accommodation(s). The data includes information concerning the type(s) of accommodation requested and provided; nature of a requestor's condition; manner in which an accommodation, personal assistance service, or assistive technology solution assists a requestor; and acquisition or modification of equipment or assistive technology solutions, to include electronic devices. Additionally, the DoD is issuing a direct final rulemaking to exempt this system of records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act, elsewhere in today's issue of the Federal Register.
