Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

Issuing agencies

Abstract

The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) uses this system to process requests for arbitration panels, including payment for requests, to process annual fees for each arbitrator, to maintain a roster of qualified, private labor arbitrators to hear disputes arising under collective bargaining agreements, and provide fact finding and interest arbitration. The notice amendment includes administrative updates to refine details published under SUMMARY, FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, SYSTEM MANAGER, ROUTINE USES, and the HISTORY section. These sections are amended to refine previously published information about the system of records. The dates, addresses, system name, security classification, system location, authority for maintenance of the system, purpose of the system, categories of individuals covered by the system, categories of records in the system, record source categories, policies and practices for storage of records, policies and practices for retrieval of records, policies and procedures for retention and disposal of records, administrative safeguards, record access procedures, contesting records procedures, notification procedures, and exemptions promulgated remain unchanged. This amended SORN deletes and supersedes the SORN published in the Federal Register on March 24, 2022.
