DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
[CPCLO Order No. 001-2024]
Privacy Act of 1974; Systems of Records
AGENCY: Environment and Natural Resources Division, United States
Department of Justice.
ACTION: Notice of a modified system of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 and Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, notice is hereby given that the
Environment and Natural Resources Division (hereinafter ``ENRD'' or
``Division''), a component within the United States Department of
Justice (DOJ or Department), proposes to modify a system of records
last published in full on February 23, 2000, titled ``Environment and
Natural Resources Division Case and Related Files System,'' (JUSTICE/
ENRD-003).
DATES: In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11), this notice is
applicable upon publication, subject to a 30-day period in which to
comment on the routine uses, described below. Please submit any
comments by May 23, 2024.
ADDRESSES: The public, OMB, and Congress are invited to submit any
comments by mail to the United States Department of Justice, Office of
Privacy and Civil Liberties, ATTN: Privacy Analyst, 145 N St. NW, Suite
8W.300, Washington, DC 20530; by facsimile at 202-307-0693; or by email

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Charles Smiroldo, FOIA Coordinator and
Public Liaison, Department of Justice, Environment and Natural
Resources Division Law and Policy Section, 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW,
Washington, DC 20530-0001 Telephone: (202) 514-0424.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to updated OMB Guidance, ENRD has
made administrative edits to the order and titles of sections in the
notice. The Division also proposes these modifications to incorporate
substantial developments made to the ENRD Justice Consolidated Office
Network (ENRD JCON) information system, where the Division's ``Case and
Related Files System'' is maintained, in addition to various
applications which maintain additional categories of information
subject to the Privacy Act. Specifically, the Division will modify the
system of records by renaming it, ``Environment and Natural Resources
Division Administrative and Case Related Files'' (JUSTICE/ENRD-003);
updating the ``System Manager(s)'' and ``Addresses'' section to reflect
administrative changes; revising the categories of records covered by
adding additional information maintained by applications housed on ENRD
JCON; adding new routine uses for the new categories of records
maintained on ENRD JCON (primarily relating to the electronic
management and handling of case files during investigation and
litigation, human capital, transit subsidy and financial reporting
information, and public access to the records pursuant to Federal
statutes or regulations); deleting and revising routine uses to provide
clarity and additional specificity; revising the categories of records
and purpose sections to reflect changes made to the system of records
that
[[Page 30393]]
enable Division attorneys, managers and support personnel with the
ability to collect, organize, analyze and disseminate information more
efficiently. Because of the number of changes made and for public
convenience, the modified system of records notice has been printed
below in full, replacing the previous notice in its entirety.
ENRD continues to assert the same Privacy Act (j) and (k)
exemptions as previously published in 28 CFR 16.92.
As stated above, the purpose of the modified notice is to
incorporate the changes and developments to the ENRD JCON information
system, a standalone major system residing on the DOJ Justice
Consolidated Office Network (JCON) general support system platform,
which includes hybrid cloud and on-premises hosting environments. The
system interconnects with various applications designed to facilitate
ENRD litigation support, and to manage administrative processes. The
purpose for modifying the Privacy Act System of Records Notice is to
assist with the facilitation of ENRD's litigation mission, and the
Division's need to collect and maintain information pertaining to civil
and criminal enforcement investigations, actions, and defensive work on
behalf of the United States Government. Specifically, collecting and
maintaining the records will support ENRD in reviewing documents for
relevance and privilege claims, tracking use of documentary evidence in
litigation, preparing witness kits/binders for depositions and
hearings, determining and organizing the facts about the case, and
selecting exhibits for trial. The records will also be used to support
ENRD's administrative functions.
Additional modifications to the system of records have been made to
incorporate OMB guidance, technological advancements, and update
existing routine uses and propose new routine uses. Pursuant to OMB
Circular No. A-108, various sections were rearranged, and various
section titles were edited. ENRD moves the System Manager(s) section in
the system of records notice, as well as edited Policies and Practices
for Storing, Retrieving, Accessing, Retaining, and Disposing of Records
in the System: Storage, Retrievability, Safeguards, and Retention and
Disposal to the following section titles: Policies and Practices for
Storage of Records; Policies and Practices for Retrieval of Records;
Policies and Practices for Retrieval of Records; Policies and Practices
for Retention and Disposal of Records; and Administrative, Technical,
and Physical Safeguards. Technological advancements, such as the
ability to store records in the cloud and creation of stronger
authentication methods, and institutional changes led the ENRD to
modify and update the Policies and Practices for Storage of Records,
Policies and Practices for Retrieval of Records, Administrative,
Technical, and Physical Safeguards, System Location, and System
Manager(s), and Addresses sections.
Previously routine uses have been consolidated and updated with
language consistent with other Department routine uses. ENRD also has
included new routine uses, including model routine uses that are
included in all DOJ SORNs. The model routine uses permit disclosure to:
to a former employee of the Department for purposes of responding to an
official inquiry by a Federal, State, or local government entity or
professional licensing authority, in accordance with applicable
Department regulations; facilitating communications with a former
employee that may be necessary for personnel-related or other official
purposes where the Department requires information and/or consultation
assistance from the former employee regarding a matter within that
person's former area of responsibility; communication with licensing
agencies or associations which require information concerning the
suitability or eligibility of an individual for a license or permit;
communication with contractors, grantees, experts, consultants,
students, and others performing or working on a contract, service,
grant, cooperative agreement, or other assignment for the Federal
Government, when necessary to accomplish an agency function related to
this system of records; communication with designated officers and
employees of State, local, territorial, or Tribal law enforcement or
detention agencies in connection with the hiring or continued
employment of an employee or contractor, where the employee or
contractor would occupy or occupies a position of public trust as a law
enforcement officer or detention officer having direct contact with the
public or with prisoners or detainees, to the extent that the
information is relevant and necessary to the recipient agency's
decision; communication with any agency, organization, or individual
for the purpose of performing authorized audit or oversight operations
of ENRD and meeting related reporting requirements; and communication
with any entities or individuals under such circumstances and
procedures as are mandated by Federal statute or treaty. ENRD also
proposes two new routine uses (x) and (y) to permit disclosure of
information related to caring for a live animal or plant that has been
seized as a result of an investigation, and to the public, where
required, for purposes of publishing proposed consent decrees,
settlements, or comments, respectively.
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), the Department has provided a
report to OMB and Congress on this new system of records.
Dated: March 28, 2024.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:
All information, except that specified in this paragraph, is
recorded on computer files or basic paper/cardboard material that is
stored in file folders, file cabinets, shelves, or safes. Some material
is recorded and stored on other data processing storage forms located
in file rooms and offsite facilities.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:
Records in this system are retrieved by the name of the individual,
employee identification number, tax identification number, case number,
case name, complainant/court docket number, and in limited
circumstances Social Security number.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
In accordance with the Federal Records Act, DOJ's Office of Records
Management Policy (ORMP), and consistent with NARA standards, ENRD
ensures that all applications hosted on the ENRD JCON system are in
compliance with appropriate retention schedules to manage the use,
maintenance, retention and disposition of all DOJ records created and
captured. Records are maintained in paper and electronic format, and
retentions periods for these records, which include case files, range
from approximately 2 years to 100 years after the case closure date.
Temporary records are destroyed at the end of the retention period, and
permanent records are transferred to the custody of NARA.
To ensure NARA and OMB electronic records compliance, ENRD is
modernizing its information intake efforts. As part of this process,
legacy hard copy records are in the process of being converted to
electronic files for storage/use.
ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
Records maintained in the ENRD JCON system are both confidential
and non-confidential and located in file cabinets, safes and file rooms
as well as hybrid cloud and on-premises hosting environments, and may
be retained in the Central Office, Field Offices/Locations, Offsite
Storage Facilities, or Federal Records Center. Records are also located
in litigation support contract document centers and offsite storage
locations. Confidential records are in locked file drawers, safes, and
secured file rooms. Offices are secured by either Federal Protective
Service or private building guards. Electronic records retrievable by
Division personnel trained to access existing ENRD software
applications or successor applications, within various ENRD offices,
are password protected and require access privileges to ENRD JCON.
RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
All requests for access to records must be in writing and should be
addressed to the Department of Justice, Environmental and Natural
Resources Division, Law and Policy Section, 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW,
Washington, DC 20530 ATTN: FOIA/Privacy Act Coordinator. The envelope
and letter
[[Page 30396]]
should be clearly marked ``Privacy Act Access Request.'' The request
must describe the records sought in sufficient detail to enable
Department personnel to locate them with a reasonable amount of effort.
The request must include a general description of the records sought
and must include the requester's full name, current address, and date
and place of birth. The request must be signed and either notarized or
submitted under penalty of perjury. Some information may be exempt from
the access provisions as described in the ``EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR
THE SYSTEM'' paragraph, below. An individual who is the subject of a
record in this system of records may access those records that are not
exempt from access. A determination whether a record may be accessed
will be made at the time a request is received.
Although no specific form is required, you may obtain forms for
this purpose from the FOIA/Privacy Act Mail Referral Unit, United
States Department of Justice, 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington,
DC 20530, or on the Department of Justice website at <a href="https://www.justice.gov/oip/submit-and-track-request-or-appeal">https://www.justice.gov/oip/submit-and-track-request-or-appeal</a>.

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
Individuals seeking to contest or amend records maintained in this
system of records must direct their requests to the address indicated
in the ``RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES'' paragraph, above. All requests to
contest or amend records must be in writing and the envelope and letter
should be clearly marked ``Privacy Act Amendment Request.'' All
requests must state clearly and concisely what record is being
contested, the reasons for contesting it, and the proposed amendment to
the record. Some information may be exempt from the amendment
provisions as described in the ``EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE
SYSTEM'' paragraph, below. An individual who is the subject of a record
in this system of records may contest or amend those records that are
not exempt. A determination of whether a record is exempt from the
amendment provisions will be made after a request is received.
More information regarding the Department's procedures for amending
or contesting records in accordance with the Privacy Act can be found
at 28 CFR 16.46, ``Requests for Amendment or Correction of Records.''
NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES:
Individuals may be notified if a record in this system of records
pertains to them when the individuals request information utilizing the
same procedures as those identified in the ``RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES''
paragraph, above.
EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE SYSTEM:
The Attorney General has promulgated rules to exempt those records
in this system that pertain to the enforcement of criminal laws, that
are investigatory materials compiled for law enforcement purposes, or
that are classified secret by an Executive Order, from the following
Privacy Act requirements: (1) The requirement under (c)(3) to make
available to the individual named in the record an accounting of the
circumstances under which records about the individual were disclosed;
(2) the requirement under (e)(1) to maintain only such information
about an individual that is relevant and necessary to accomplish a
purpose of the agency; and (3) the requirement under (f) to establish
agency procedures to respond to an individual's request for information
about himself. The Attorney General also has promulgated a rule to
exempt records in this system compiled for criminal enforcement
purposes from these additional requirements: (1) The requirement under
(c)(4) to inform any party or agency that received an individual's
records about any subsequent corrections made to the record; (2) the
requirement under (e)(2) to collect information to the greatest extent
practicable directly from the individual when the information may
result in adverse determinations about an individual's rights, benefits
and privileges under Federal programs; (3) the requirement under (e)(3)
to inform each individual from whom information is collected of the
authority for the information the principal purposes for the
information, the routine uses, and the effects, if any, of not
providing the information; (4) the requirement under (e)(5) to maintain
all records with such accuracy, relevance, timeliness and completeness
as is reasonably necessary to assure fairness to the individual, (5)
the requirement under (e)(8) to make reasonable efforts to serve notice
on an individual when any record on the individual is made available to
any person under compulsory legal process when that process becomes a
matter of public record; and (6) the authority under (g) providing that
individuals may bring a civil action against the agency for violations
of the Privacy Act.
These rules have been promulgated in accordance with the
requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553(b), (c) and (e), and have been published
in the Federal Register.
