system are also used to maintain documentation for DOT employees who
attend classified briefings outside of DOT, and non-DOT individuals
attending classified meetings at DOT. The following substantive changes
have been made to the Notice:
1. System Location: This Notice updates the system location to
reflect the current location where individual records are submitted and
processed to determine eligibility for clearances, conduct suitability
background investigations and maintain documentation for DOT and non-
DOT employees who attend classified briefings at DOT and outside of
DOT. The previously published SORN identified a location that is no
longer valid. All records covered in this Notice are maintained at the
Department of Transportation, Office of the Secretary, 1200 New Jersey
Ave SE, Suite W12-180, Washington DC 20590.
2. System Manager: This Notice updates the system manager to
reflect to reflect current system Manager and inform the public the

180, Washington DC 20590.
3. Authority: This Notice updates the authorities to include
additional authorities that cover the system of records and align with
the requirements. The additional authorities include E.O. 12829; E.O.
12968, E.O. 13467; E.O. 13764; E.O. 9397, as amended by E.O. 13478;
Security Executive Agent Directive 3; Security Executive Agent
Directive 6; Security Executive Agent Directive 7; Homeland Security
Presidential Directive 12; and National Industrial Security Program
Operating Manual DoD 5220.22-M. These authorities establish the
requirements for federal agencies to conduct initial and ongoing
background suitability investigations of individuals seeking employment
with or access to federal facilities and information systems.
Investigations have been conducted under these authorities and they are
consistent with the purposes of the published SORN.
4. Purpose: This Notice updates the purpose to better clarify
purpose of the system, identify additional data captured in the system,
how the data is used, and maintained.
5. Categories of Individuals: This Notice updates the categories of
individuals to reflect that information is collected from the members
of the public, citizens and legal permanent residents, visitors to DOT
for official business, detailees to DOT, current and former federal
employees, and members of DOT contract workforce.
6. Categories of Records: This Notice updates categories of records
collected in the system. The categories of records have been updated to
include specifically individuals' names, date of birth, Social Security
Numbers (SSNs), home address, and additional records that may assist in
conducting employee suitability background investigations to determine
eligibility for clearances.
7. Records Source: This Notice updates records source category and
includes additional information collected directly from individuals and

records are retrieved in the system. The previous SORN identified one
method of retrieval of records. This Notice updates and expands the
policies and practices for the retrieval of records to include
retrievability by date of birth, Social Security Number (SSN), home
address, and additional data elements that will assist in the
background clearance of individuals.

Privacy Act
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) governs the means by which the
Federal Government collects, maintains, and uses personally
identifiable information (PII) in a system of records. A ``system of
records'' is a group of any records under the control of a Federal
agency from which information about individuals is retrieved by name or
other personal identifier. The Privacy Act requires each agency to
publish in the Federal Register a SORN identifying and describing each
system of records the agency maintains, including the purposes for
which the agency uses PII in the system, the routine uses for which the
agency discloses such information outside the agency, and how
individuals to whom a Privacy Act record pertains can exercise their
rights under the Privacy Act (e.g., to determine if the system contains
information about them and to contest inaccurate information). In
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), DOT has provided a report of this
system of records to the Office of Management and Budget and to
Congress.

the individual and/or other agencies.
ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES
OF USERS AND PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
In addition to those disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C.
552a(b) of the Privacy Act, all or portion of the records or
information contained in this system may be disclosed outside of DOT as
a routine use pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as follows:
System Specific Routine Use:
1. To the Department of Defense and other federal government
agencies responsible for conducting background investigations,
continuous evaluation, and continuous vetting in order to provide DOT
with information relevant to their inquiries and investigations to
evaluate, or make a determination regarding qualifications,
suitability, or fitness for government employment to physically access
federally-controlled facilities or information systems; eligibility for
access to classified information or to hold a sensitive position;
qualification or fitness to perform work for or on behalf of the
government under contract, grant, or other agreement; or access to
restricted areas.
Departmental Routine Uses:
2. In the event that a system of records maintained by DOT to carry
out its functions indicates a violation or potential violation of law,
whether civil, criminal or regulatory in nature, and whether arising by
general statute or particular program pursuant thereto, the relevant
records in the system of records may be referred, as a routine use, to
the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local or foreign,
charged with the responsibility of investigating or prosecuting such
violation or charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, or
rule, regulation, or order issued pursuant thereto.
3. A record from this system of records may be disclosed, as a
routine use, 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 a DOT 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.
4. A record from this system of records may be disclosed, as a
routine use, to a Federal agency, in response to its request, in
connection with 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.
5a. Routine Use for Disclosure for Use in Litigation. It shall be a
routine use of the records in this system of records to disclose them
to the Department of Justice or other Federal agency conducting
litigation when: (a) DOT, or any agency thereof, or (b) Any employee of
DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her official capacity, or (c) Any
employee of DOT or any agency thereof, in his/her individual capacity
where the Department of Justice has agreed to represent the employee,
or (d) The United States or any agency thereof, where DOT determines
that litigation is likely to affect the United States, is a party to
litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and the use of such
records by the Department of Justice or other Federal agency conducting
the litigation is deemed by DOT to be relevant and necessary in the
litigation, provided, however, that in each case, DOT determines that
disclosure of the records in the litigation is a use of the information
contained in the records that is compatible with the purpose for which
the records were collected.
5b. Routine Use for Agency Disclosure in Other Proceedings. It
shall be a routine use of records in this system to disclose them in
proceedings before any court or adjudicative or administrative body
before which DOT or any agency thereof, appears, when: (a) DOT, or any
agency thereof, or (b) Any employee of DOT or any agency thereof in
his/her official capacity, or (c) Any employee of DOT or any agency
thereof in his/her individual capacity where DOT has agreed to
represent the employee, or (d) The United States or any agency thereof,
where DOT determines that the proceeding is likely to affect the United
States, is a party to the proceeding or
[[Page 53179]]
has an interest in such proceeding, and DOT determines that use of such
records is relevant and necessary in the proceeding, provided, however,
that in each case, DOT determines that disclosure of the records in the
proceeding is a use of the information contained in the records that is
compatible with the purpose for which the records were collected.
6. The information contained in this system of records will be
disclosed to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in connection
with the review of private relief legislation as set forth in OMB
Circular No. A-19 at any stage of the legislative coordination and
clearance process as set forth in that Circular.
7. Disclosure may be made to a Congressional office from the record
of an individual in response to an inquiry from the Congressional
office made at the request of that individual. In such cases, however,
the Congressional office does not have greater rights to records than
the individual. Thus, the disclosure may be withheld from delivery to
the individual where the file contains investigative or actual
information or other materials, which are being used, or are expected
to be used, to support prosecution or fines against the individual for
violations of a statute, or of regulations of the Department based on
statutory authority. No such limitations apply to records requested for
Congressional oversight or legislative purposes; release is authorized
under 49 CFR 10.35(a)(9).
8. One or more records from a system of records may be disclosed
routinely to the National Archives and Records Administration in
records management inspections being conducted under the authority of
44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
9. DOT may make available to another agency or instrumentality of
any government jurisdiction, including State and local governments,
listings of names from any system of records in DOT for use in law
enforcement activities, either civil or criminal, or to expose
fraudulent claims, regardless of the stated purpose for the collection
of the information in the system of records. These enforcement
activities are generally referred to as matching programs because two
lists of names are checked for match using automated assistance. This
routine use is advisory in nature and does not offer unrestricted
access to systems of records for such law enforcement and related
antifraud activities. Each request will be considered on the basis of
its purpose, merits, cost effectiveness and alternatives using
Instructions on reporting computer matching programs to the Office of
Management and Budget, OMB, Congress and the public, published by the
Director, OMB, dated September 20, 1989.
10. It shall be a routine use of the information in any DOT system
of records to provide to the Attorney General of the United States, or
his/her designee, information indicating that a person meets any of the
disqualifications for receipt, possession, shipment, or transport of a
firearm under the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. In case of a
dispute concerning the validity of the information provided by DOT to
the Attorney General, or his/her designee, it shall be a routine use of
the information in any DOT system of records to make any disclosures of
such information to the National Background Information Check System,
established by the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, as may be
necessary to resolve such dispute.
11. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use to
appropriate agencies, entities and persons when (a) DOT suspects or has
confirmed that the security or confidentiality of information in the
system of records has been compromised; (b) DOT has determined that as
a result of the suspected or confirmed compromise there is a risk of
harm to economic or property interests, identity theft or fraud, or
harm to the security or integrity of this system or other systems or
programs (whether maintained by DOT or another agency or entity) that
rely upon the, compromised information; and (c) the disclosure made to
such agencies, entities, and persons is reasonably necessary to assist
in connection with DOT's efforts to respond to the suspected or
confirmed compromise and prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.
12. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use, to
the Office of Government Information Services for the purpose of (a)
resolving disputes between Freedom of Information Act requesters and
Federal agencies and (b) reviewing agencies' policies, procedures, and
compliance in order to recommend policy changes to Congress and the
President.
13. DOT may disclose records from this system, as a routine use, to
contractors and their agents, experts, consultants, and others
performing or working on a contract, service, cooperative agreement, or
other assignment for DOT, when necessary to accomplish an agency
function related to this system of records.
14. DOT may disclose records to another Federal agency or Federal
entity, when DOT 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.
15. DOT may disclose records from this system, to an agency,
organization, or individual for the purpose of performing audit or
oversight operations related to this system of records, but only such
records as are necessary and relevant to the audit or oversight
activity. This routine use does not apply to intra-agency sharing
authorized under Section (b)(1), of the Privacy Act.
16. DOT may disclose from this system, as a routine use, records
consisting of, or relating to, terrorism information (6 U.S.C.
485(a)(5)), homeland security information (6 U.S.C. 482(f)(1)), or Law
enforcement information (Guideline 2 Report attached to White House
Memorandum, ``Information Sharing Environment, November 22, 2006) to a
Federal, State, local, tribal, territorial, foreign government and/or
multinational agency, either in response to its request or upon the
initiative of the Component, for purposes of sharing such information
as is necessary and relevant for the agencies to detect, prevent,
disrupt, preempt, and mitigate the effects of terrorist activities
against the territory, people, and interests of the United States of
America, as contemplated by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism
Prevention Act of 2004, (Pub. L. 108-458) and Executive Order, 13388
