DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, DOE.
ACTION: Notice of modified system of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is modifying the systems of
records listed in this notice to incorporate two new routine uses
related to the breach of personally identifiable information (PII)
pursuant to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-17-
12. The first routine use deals with the breach of FERC's records, and
the second addresses the disclosure of FERC's records to assist other
agencies in their efforts to respond to a breach of their own records.
DATES: Please submit comments on or before July 11, 2022. These new
routine uses are effective July 11, 2022.
ADDRESSES: Any person interested in commenting on the establishment of
these Privacy Act Breach Routine Uses may do so by submitting comments
electronically to: <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#df8fadb6a9bebca69fb9baadbcf1b8b0a9"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5404263d2235372d14323126377a333b22">[email protected]</span></a> (include a reference to ``Privacy
Act Breach Routine Uses'' in the subject line of the message.)
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mittal Desai, Chief Information
Officer & Senior Agency Official for Privacy, Office of the Executive
Director, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20426, (202) 502-6432.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 3, 2017, the Office of Management
and Budget issued Memorandum 17-12, Preparing for and Responding to a
Breach of Personally Identifiable Information, to the heads of all
executive departments and agencies. Among other things, this memorandum
requires the addition of routine uses to ensure that agencies are able
to disclose records or information in their systems of records in
response to an actual or suspected breach of its own records or to
assist other agencies in their efforts to respond to a breach of their
own records. FERC is, therefore, proposing the addition of two new
routine uses. Unless this or other published notice expressly provides
otherwise, these two routines uses apply to all FERC Privacy Act system
of records listed in this notice. These routine uses supplement but do
not replace any routine uses that are separately published in the
specific individual System of Records Notice (SORN). These proposed
routine uses are compatible with the purpose for which each of the
records or information was collected.
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
First, the systems of records to be modified by including the two
new routine uses described in this Notice are set forth below. As these
two routine uses are additional new routine uses, please refer to the
specific individual SORN for other routine uses unchanged by this
notice. Second, please refer to the specific individual SORN for
additional governing elements unchanged by this notice. Finally, please
note that FERC SORNs omitted from this table have already incorporated
the two new routine uses described in this notice.
