Abstract
In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, (Privacy Act), and Office of Management Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, "Federal Agency Responsibilities for Review, Reporting, and Publication under the Privacy Act," the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA or Agency) proposes to rescind an existing System of Records Notice (SORN). The SORN being rescinded is based on a third- party operated system of records that is no longer maintained by the Agency and has been decommissioned. FHFA-25, Applicant Tracking System was used by FHFA to post and publicize mission critical occupation job openings using FHFA's authority to hire examiners, accountants, economists, and specialists in financial markets and in technology; receive, store, and process resumes, applications, curriculum vitaes, and similar documents received in response to mission critical occupation job openings and recruiting and outreach events; and track applicants for such positions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Comments
FHFA seeks public comments on the rescindment of the SORN
identified in this notice and will take all comments into
consideration. The Agency will post all public comments on the FHFA
public website at <a href="https://www.fhfa.gov">https://www.fhfa.gov</a>, except as described below.
Commenters should submit only information that the commenter wishes to
make available publicly. FHFA may post only a single representative
example of identical or substantially identical comments, and in such
cases will generally identify the number of identical or substantially
identical comments represented by the posted example. FHFA may, in its
discretion, redact or refrain from posting all or any portion of any
comment that contains content that is obscene, vulgar, profane, or
threatens harm. All comments, including those that are redacted or not
posted, will be retained in their original form in FHFA's internal file
and considered as required by all applicable laws. Commenters that
would like FHFA to consider any portion of their comment exempt from
disclosure on the basis that it contains trade secrets, or financial,
confidential or proprietary data or information, should follow the
procedures in section IV.D. of FHFA's Policy on Communications with
Outside Parties in
[[Page 25269]]
Connection with FHFA Rulemakings, see <a href="https://www.fhfa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Ex-Parte-Communications-Public-Policy_3-5-19.pdf">https://www.fhfa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Ex-Parte-Communications-Public-Policy_3-5-19.pdf</a>. FHFA cannot guarantee that such data or information, or the
identity of the commenter, will remain confidential if disclosure is
sought pursuant to an applicable statute or regulation. See 12 CFR
1202.8, 12 CFR 1214.2, and the FHFA FOIA Reference Guide at <a href="https://www.fhfa.gov/about/foia-reference-guide">https://www.fhfa.gov/about/foia-reference-guide</a> for additional information.
II. Rescinded System of Records
FHFA proposes to rescind FHFA-25, Applicant Tracking System,
because the third-party operated system of records described in FHFA-25
is no longer maintained by the Agency and has been decommissioned as of
March 30, 2023. The remaining records that are covered in SORN FHFA-25
are not regularly used by FHFA for any purpose, are not retrievable by
a personal identifier, and therefore are not a Privacy Act system of
records. The remaining records covered by SORN FHFA-25 are maintained
on FHFA's network and will be retained and destroyed in accordance with
the Agency's records retention schedule. Eliminating this SORN will
have no adverse impact on individuals, as FHFA has transitioned all job
postings and applicant management to USA Staffing, which is covered by
the Government-wide SORN OPM/GOVT-1, General Personnel Records.
For the reasons explained immediately above, the following system
of records is rescinded:
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
Applicant Tracking System, FHFA-25.
HISTORY:
The system of records was last published in full in the Federal
Register at 82 FR 52902 (Nov. 15, 2017).
Clinton Jones,
General Counsel, Federal Housing Finance Agency.
