local agencies or to foreign governments in cases of accident
investigations, including mishap and collateral investigations.
2. To Federal, State, or local agencies, companies, or governments
requesting qualifications of crewmembers prior to authorization to
participate in their flight programs, or to Federal, State, or local
agencies, companies, or governments whose crewmembers may participate
in NASA's flight programs.
3. To the public or in press releases either by prior approval of
the individual, or in the case of public release of information from
mishap or collateral investigation reports, pursuant to NASA
regulations at 14 CFR part 1213.
[[Page 53527]]
In addition, information may be disclosed under the following NASA
Standard Routine Uses:
1. Law Enforcement--When a record on its face, or in conjunction
with other information, indicates a violation or potential violation of
law, whether civil, criminal or regulatory in nature, and whether
arising by general statute or particular program statute, or by
regulation, rule, or order, disclosure may be made to the appropriate
agency, whether Federal, foreign, State, local, or tribal, or other
public authority responsible for enforcing, investigating or
prosecuting such violation or charged with enforcing or implementing
the statute, or rule, regulation, or order, if NASA determines by
careful review that the records or information are both relevant and
necessary to any enforcement, regulatory, investigative or prosecutive
responsibility of the receiving entity.
2. Certain Disclosures to Other Agencies--A record from this SOR
may be disclosed to a Federal, State, or local agency maintaining
civil, criminal, or other relevant enforcement information or other
pertinent information, such as current licenses, if necessary, to
obtain information relevant to an NASA decision concerning the hiring
or retention of an employee, the issuance of a security clearance, the
letting of a contract, or the issuance of a license, grant, or other
benefit.
3. Certain Disclosures to Other Federal Agencies--A record from
this SOR may be disclosed to a Federal agency, in response to its
request, for a matter concerning the hiring or retention of an
employee, the issuance of a security clearance, the reporting of an
investigation of an employee, the letting of a contract, or the
issuance of a license, grant, or other benefit by the requesting
agency, to the extent that the information is relevant and necessary to
the requesting agency's decision on the matter.
4. Department of Justice--A record from this SOR may be disclosed
to the Department of Justice when a) NASA, or any component thereof; or
b) any employee of NASA in his or her official capacity; or c) any
employee of NASA in his or her individual capacity where the Department
of Justice has agreed to represent the employee; or d) the United
States, where NASA determines that litigation is likely to affect NASA
or any of its components, is a party to litigation or has an interest
in such litigation, and by careful review, the use of such records by
the Department of Justice is deemed by NASA to be relevant and
necessary to the litigation.
5. Courts--A record from this SOR may be disclosed in an
appropriate proceeding before a court, grand jury, or administrative or
adjudicative body, when NASA determines that the records are relevant
and necessary to the proceeding; or in an appropriate proceeding before
an administrative or adjudicative body when the adjudicator determines
the records to be relevant and necessary to the proceeding.
6. Response to an Actual or Suspected Compromise or Breach of
Personally Identifiable Information--A record from this SOR may be
disclosed to appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when (1) NASA
suspects or has confirmed that there has been a breach of the system of
records; (2) NASA has determined that as a result of the suspected or
confirmed breach there is a risk of harm to individuals, NASA
(including its information systems, programs, and operations), the
Federal Government, or national security; and (3) the disclosure made
to such agencies, entities, and persons is reasonably necessary to
assist in connection with NASA's efforts to respond to the suspected or
confirmed breach or to prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.
7. Contractors--A record from this SOR may be disclosed to
contractors, grantees, experts, consultants, students, volunteers, and
others performing or working on a contract, service, grant, cooperative
agreement, or other assignment for the Federal Government, when
necessary to accomplish a NASA function related to this SOR.
Individuals provided information under this routine use are subject to
the same Privacy Act requirements and limitations on disclosure as are
applicable to NASA employees.
8. Members of Congress--A record from this SOR may be disclosed to
a Member of Congress or to a Congressional staff member in response to
an inquiry of the Congressional office made at the written request of
the constituent about whom the record is maintained.
9. Disclosures to Other Federal Agencies in Response to an Actual
or Suspected Compromise or Breach of Personally Identifiable
Information--A record from this SOR may be disclosed to another Federal
agency or Federal entity, when NASA determines that information from
this system of records is reasonably necessary to assist the recipient
agency or entity in (1) responding to a suspected or confirmed breach
or (2) preventing, minimizing, or remedying the risk of harm to
individuals, the recipient agency or entity (including its information
systems, programs, and operations), the Federal Government, or national
security, resulting from a suspected or confirmed breach.
10. National Archives and Records Administration--A record from
this SOR may be disclosed as a routine use to the officers and
employees of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA)
pursuant to records management inspections being conducted under the
authority of 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
11. Audit--A record from this SOR may be disclosed to another
agency, or organization for purpose of performing audit or oversight
operations as authorized by law, but only such information as is
necessary and relevant to such audit or oversight function.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:
Records in this system are maintained as hard-copy documents and on
electronic media.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:
Records are retrieved from the system by aircrew identifier.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
Records for other than astronauts are maintained in Agency files
and destroyed 5 years after crewmember separates from NASA in
accordance with NASA Records Retention Schedules (NRRS), Schedule 8
Item 32. Records of crewmembers who are astronauts are permanent and
will be transferred to the National Archives in accordance with NRRS,
Schedule 8 Item 34.
ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
Electronic records are maintained on secure NASA servers and
protected in accordance with all Federal standards and those
established in NASA regulations at 14 CFR 1212.605. Additionally,
server and data management environments employ infrastructure
encryption technologies both in data transmission and at rest on
servers. Electronic messages sent within and outside of the Agency that
convey sensitive data are encrypted and transmitted by staff via pre-
approved electronic encryption systems as required by NASA policy.
Approved security plans are in place for information systems containing
the records in accordance with the Federal Information Security
Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) and OMB Circular A-130, Management of
Federal Information Resources. Only authorized
[[Page 53528]]
personnel requiring information in the official discharge of their
duties are authorized access to records through approved access or
authentication methods. Access to electronic records is achieved only
from workstations within the NASA Intranet or via a secure Virtual
Private Network (VPN) connection that requires two-factor hardware
token authentication or via employee PIV badge authentication from
NASA-issued computers. Non-electronic records are secured in locked
rooms or locked file cabinets.
