SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Modifications to System of Records 09-80-0325
ORR plans, develops, and directs the implementation of a domestic
resettlement assistance program for refugees and other eligible
populations described in the Categories of Individuals section of the
below System of Records Notice (SORN). ORR provides resources to assist
these populations with successful integration into American society.
ORR's social services help refugees become self-sufficient as quickly
as possible after their arrival in the United States. ORR also provides
guidance, resources, and oversight for specific health challenges
including medical assistance, initial health screenings, and
consultations. ORR also oversees the Unaccompanied Children Program,
providing care for unaccompanied refugee minors (URM) without lawful
immigration status.
ORR is continuously enhancing data collection and record keeping
for the many programs that provide refugee resettlement services to new
arrivals. ORR expects RADS, the information technology (IT) platform
associated with systems of records 09-80-0325 and 09-80-0329, to be the
``one stop'' shop for grantees to submit data, upload case management
files, and submit performance reports and other information that will
streamline service
[[Page 7179]]
delivery, and help ORR respond in a timely and effective manner to the
diverse needs of ORR-served populations. ORR recently modified the RADS
IT platform to allow for increased database capacity and increased
access by ORR's grantees as ORR programs transition to using RADS as
the exclusive platform.
Instead of continuing to maintain two SORNs for the Privacy Act
records in the RADS IT platform (and for older records which still
exist in paper form), ORR is merging the two SORNs, so that all of the
records will be covered by SORN 09-80-0325, and SORN 09-80-0329 will be
rescinded. The records about all populations served by ORR
(unaccompanied children, other refugees, and other populations) have
always been used for the same two purposes (ensuring provision of care
and services, and providing information needed for reports, grants,
budgeting, and similar purposes); covering the records in the same SORN
will make that clear.
This modifications to SORN 09-80-0325 include:
<bullet> Making formatting changes required by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-108 and minor wording changes
throughout the SORN.
<bullet> Changing the name of the system of records from internet
Refugee Arrivals Data System (iRADS) to ORR Refugee Arrivals Data
System (RADS).
<bullet> Revising the ``System Location'' section to omit a
statement that a list of contractor sites where records are maintained
is available upon request to the System Manager. (The IT system used to
maintain the records is now wholly housed in the ACF Amazon Web
Services cloud and is no longer in several contractor locations.)
<bullet> Updating the ``System Manager'' section to change the
title of the official serving as the System Manager from Director,
Division of Budget Policy and Data Analysis, to RADS Project Manager.
<bullet> Revising the ``Categories of Individuals'' section to add,
as the last category, the description of unaccompanied refugee minors
from SORN 09-80-0329; to add a note explaining that ORR uses the terms
``refugee'' and ``ORR population'' to describe all populations eligible
to receive ORR refugee services and benefits; and to remove a note
about a non-U.S. persons policy, which is prone to change.
<bullet> Revising the ``Categories of Records'' section to combine
and unify the descriptions of records and data elements from the two
previously separate SORNs 09-80-0325 and 09-80-0329, which were
essentially the same and may apply to any of the categories of
individuals.
<bullet> Revising the ``Records Source Categories'' section to
include these sources from SORN 09-80-0329, which may apply to any of
the categories of individuals: National and local refugee resettlement
agencies, child welfare agencies, family members, private individuals,
private and public hospitals, doctors, law enforcement agencies and
officials, private attorneys, facilities reports, third parties, other
federal agencies, state and local governments, agencies, and
instrumentalities. Note that ``national and local refugee resettlement
agencies'' is an updated description the resettlement community prefers
instead of the description ``national and local voluntary refugee
resettlement agencies'' that was used in SORN 09-80-0329.
<bullet> Revising the ``Routine Uses'' section to omit a statement
at the start of the section that disclosures made under routine uses
will be evaluated to ensure they are ``compatible with the purpose for
which the information was collected'' (the statement is redundant
because it repeats part of the definition of a routine use); and to
delete two routine uses, add four new routine uses, and revise two
existing routine uses, as follows:
[cir] The law enforcement routine use, which was numbered as
routine use 1 in SORN 09-80-0325 and was not included in SORN 09-80-
0329, has been deleted because ORR does not disclose information about
these populations to law enforcement entities.
[cir] The routine use authorizing disclosures in administrative
claim, complaint, and appeal proceedings filed by HHS employees, which
was numbered as routine use 7 in SORN 09-80-0325, and as routine use 11
in SORN 09-80-0329, has been deleted because ORR does not disclose
information about these populations in administrative proceedings filed
by HHS employees.
[cir] Routine use 3, which authorizes disclosures to the Department
of Justice, or a court or other adjudicative body in litigation or
other proceedings, has been revised to remove redundant wording about
``compatibility'' (because that repeats part of the definition of a
routine use); to use the broader term ``proceedings'' instead of
``litigation''; and to change ``his or her'' to ``the employee's'' to
be gender neutral.
[cir] Routine use 5, which authorizes disclosures to contractors,
has been expanded to include these additional disclosure recipients
described in the corresponding routine use in SORN 09-80-0329:
Grantees, consultants, and volunteers performing or working on a
contract, service, grant, cooperative agreement, job, or other activity
for HHS, and who have a need to have access to the information in the
performance of their duties or activities for HHS. The phrase
``relating to the purposes of the system of records'' has also been
added.
[cir] Routine use 11 is new; it has been added from SORN 09-80-0329
to authorize the disclosure of information to an attorney or
representative of an individual in connection with any proceeding
involving the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or the Executive
Office for Immigration Review. Such disclosures are not limited to
information about URM.
[cir] Routine use 12 is new; it has been added from SORN 09-80-0329
to authorize the disclosure of information to a Protection and Advocacy
program under the Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Mental
Illness Act, provided that such a request is appropriately made. Such
disclosures are not limited to information about URM.
[cir] Routine use 13 is new; it has been added from SORN 09-80-0329
to authorize ORR to initiate a disclosure of information to DHS to
inquire about DHS' progress in adjudicating or deciding immigration
relief. Such disclosures are not limited to information about URM.
[cir] Routine use 14 is new; it has been added from SORN 09-80-0329
to authorize the disclosure of information to a provider of services to
refugee minors, foster care agency, national voluntary refugee
resettlement agency, or to a local, county, or state institution
involved in resettlement activities. Such disclosures are not limited
to information about URM.
<bullet> Removing the statement ``Disclosure to Consumer Reporting
Agencies: None'' as unnecessary to include.
<bullet> Revising the ``Storage'' section to indicate which records
are in electronic versus paper form (i.e., newer records are
electronic, and older records are in paper form).
<bullet> Revising the ``Retention'' section to explain that any of
the records could be either destroyed (if they do not have historical
value) or retained permanently (acquisitioned to the National Archives
and Records Administration), after 15 years. (Previously, all records
covered in SORN 09-80-0325 were described as permanently retained, and
only URM case files covered in SORN 09-80-0329
[[Page 7180]]
were described as temporary records, with a retention period of 5
years.)
<bullet> Revising the ``Safeguards'' section to describe specific
administrative, technical, and physical safeguards used to protect the
records from unauthorized access, instead of merely stating that
``safeguards conform to the HHS Information Security Program.''
<bullet> Revising the procedures for making access, amendment, and
notification requests to state that ``date of birth'' should be
included and to explain how to verify identity, instead of referring
individuals to the verification provisions in the HHS Privacy Act
regulations.
Because some of these changes are significant, HHS provided
adequate advance notice of the modified system of records to OMB and
Congress in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r).
II. Rescindment of System of Records 09-80-0329
As modified in this notice, system of records 09-80-0325 now
includes updated descriptions of the same records previously covered in
system of records 09-80-0329. Accordingly, HHS is rescinding system of
records 09-80-0329 as duplicative of modified SORN 09-80-0325.

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
8 U.S.C. 1521-1524; Title V of the Refugee Education Assistance Act
of 1980, 8 U.S.C. 1522 note.
PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM:
Records about individuals in all categories described in the
Categories of Individuals section are used by HHS/ACF/ORR for the
following purposes:
<bullet> To ensure that appropriate assistance, care, and services
are provided to all populations served by ORR.
<bullet> To generate data needed to allocate funds for Formula
Social Services and other grants according to statutory formulas
established under 8 U.S.C. 1522(c)(1)(B) and (c)(2)(B); extract samples
for the Annual Survey of Refugees, which collects information on the
economic adjustment of refugees; and support other budget and grant
requirements and data requests from within and outside ORR.
Records about URM are used for the specific purpose of verifying
that legal responsibility for the minors is established, under state
law, and ensuring that the minors receive the full range of assistance,
care, and services that are available to all foster children in the
state, and any additional services for which they are eligible.
CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
Records pertain to the following categories of individuals:

individual previously held one of the statuses identified above.
9. URM who are admitted from refugee camps overseas or determined
eligible after arrival in the United States and do not have a parent or
a relative available and committed to providing for their long-term
care. Children determined eligible after arrival include victims of a
severe form of trafficking, Cuban and Haitian Entrants, minors granted
asylum in the United States, minors with Special Immigrant Juvenile
classification, and U status recipients.
(Note: ORR uses the terms ``refugee'' and ``ORR population'' to
describe all populations eligible to receive ORR refugee services and
benefits.)
