Abstract

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is modifying and reissuing a current system of records titled, "Pentagon Facilities Parking Program," DWHS D04. This system of records was originally established to manage the Pentagon Facilities Parking Program for DoD civilian, military, and contractor personnel applying for and in receipt of Pentagon parking permits. Records are also used to ensure DoD military personnel and civilians are not in receipt of both an issued parking pass and mass transit benefits. This system of records is being updated to expand the categories of records collected. DoD is also updating the System of Records Notice (SORN) to add the standard DoD routine uses (routine uses A through J). Lastly, the DoD is also modifying various other sections within the SORN to improve clarity or update information that has changed.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Pentagon's parking program is designed to manage the large 
number of vehicles belonging to employees, military personnel, and 
visitors who are authorized to park at the Pentagon Reservation (to 
include the Pentagon, Mark Center, and Suffolk Building). This system 
of records is being updated to expand the categories of records 
collected. Additionally, DoD is updating the SORN to add the standard 
DoD routine uses (routine uses A through J). Other sections of this 
SORN are being modified as follows: (1) System Manager and System 
Location sections to update the address and office name; (2) Authority 
for Maintenance of the System to update citation(s) and add additional 
authorities; (3) Categories of Records in the System to remove the 
social security number (SSN); (4) Policies and Practices for retrieval 
of Records to remove the SSN and add a data element; (5) Policies and 
Practices for Retention and Disposal of Records to update the retention 
period which the records are maintained; (6) Record Access Procedures 
to update the procedures for accessing the records; and (7) Contesting 
Record Procedures to update the appropriate citation for contesting 
records. Furthermore, this notice includes non-substantive changes to 
simplify the formatting and text of the previously published notice.
    DoD SORNs have been published in the Federal Register and are 
available from the address in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or at the 
Office of the Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Privacy, Civil 
Liberties, and Transparency (OATSD(PCLT)) website at <a href="https://dpcld.defense.gov/privacy">https://dpcld.defense.gov/privacy</a>.
