<p>Is to administer Housing Counseling Assistance to enable anyone who wants to (or already does) rent or own housing--whether through a HUD program, a Veterans Affairs program, other Federal programs, a State or local program, or the regular private market--to get the counseling they need to make their rent or mortgage payments and to be a responsible tenant or owner in other ways. The counseling is provided by HUD-approved housing counseling agencies.</p>
<p>Three strategic goals undergird the programs: (1) To improve the quality of renter and homeowner education, (2) to develop a reliable stream of funding and resources for counseling agencies, and (3) to enhance coordination among local housing providers. HUD intends that these strategies together will create a new expectation among mortgage lenders and insurers, homebuilders, real estate brokers, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies: to make counseling an integral part of services for potential renters and homebuyers.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>

<subsection type="systemLocation"><xhtmlContent><p>Headquarters.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="categoriesOfIndividuals"><xhtmlContent><p>Categories of individuals included in the system with respect to residential properties include: Owners, managers, agents, and landlords; potential purchasers; and prospective and actual tenants. Categories of individuals included in the system with respect to referrals of concerns include: tips or complaints that are not anonymous, EPA, local government agencies (e.g., health departments and building code enforcement agencies), not for profit organizations interested in protecting the rights and health of tenants, and the HUD Inspector General. Categories of individuals included in the system with respect to investigation of properties include: HUD employees.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="categoriesOfRecords"><xhtmlContent><p>Records consist of the following information pertaining to the owner, manager and agent: Name, title, address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address, company name, corporate registration number, and corporate registered agent name. Records also include: Property information, residential lease information, documents related to lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards, inspection reports, risk assessment reports, clearance tests, and associated disclosures and notifications, local housing code violation information, number of child lead-poisoning reports for a property, source of referral, consent agreements and administrative settlements, and the associated monitoring of these agreements.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="authorityForMaintenance"><xhtmlContent><p>HUD is charged with ensuring proper disclosure of information concerning lead upon transfer of residential property, whether by sale or lease, under 42 U.S.C. 4852(d). HUD has authority to promulgate regulations to enforce the statutory requirements under 42 U.S.C. 4852d(a)(1) and (2). HUD's statutory authority to enforce its regulations are found at 42 U.S.C. 4852d(a)(5) and (b). Additionally, HUD is charged with establishing procedures to eliminate the hazards of lead-based paint in any housing receiving Federal assistance under 42 U.S.C. 4822(a). 24 CFR part 35 contains the implementing regulations promulgated pursuant to the statutes.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="purpose"><xhtmlContent><p>The primary purpose of CIEF is to enable OHHLHC to complete its statutory responsibility to ensure compliance with the Lead Disclosure Rule 24 CFR 35, subpart A, and the Lead Safe Housing Rule 24 CFR part 35, subparts B-R. The lead disclosure is to occur before a lessee or buyer is obligated under a lease or sale agreement. The only way to verify disclosure is to evaluate the documentation that memorializes these transactions and the parties involved. Since knowledge is an integral aspect of disclosure, any documentation regarding knowledge of lead (e.g., lead-based paint inspections, lead-based paint inspections risk assessments, hazard reduction activities, local abatement orders or notices of code violations, etc.) is necessary for verifying what and when the owner or his agent knew or should have known.</p>
<p>In the case of federally assisted housing, the owner or designated party is required to perform some type of inspection and attendant abatement action. The regulations require ongoing activities until all lead-based paint is removed, including use of lead safe work practices and notification of tenants regarding all of these activities.</p>
<p>If an OHHLHC investigation indicates a violation or potential violation of the lead disclosure rule, relevant documents may be disclosed to the appropriate Federal, state or local authority for investigation or enforcement of the applicable laws and regulations. If an OHHLHC investigation indicates a violation or potential violation of the lead safe housing rule, relevant documents may be disclosed to the appropriate program office or Enforcement Center for investigation or enforcement of the applicable laws and regulations.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>

<p>2. Records may be disclosed during the course of an administrative proceeding where HUD or other federal agency is a party, to the Administrative Law Judge and the interested parties to the extent necessary for conducting the proceeding.</p>
<p>3. Records may be disclosed to the Department of Justice for litigation purposes associated with the representation of HUD or other Federal agency before the courts.</p>

<subsection type="authorityForMaintenance"><xhtmlContent><p>Pursuant to the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Amendments Act of 1988 and Section 303(i) of the Social Security Act, HUD and HUD-funded public housing authorities may request wage and claim data from State Wage Information Collection Agencies (SWICAs) responsible for administering state unemployment laws. On October 1, 1994, Section 542(a)(1) of HUD's 1998 Appropriation Act, eliminated a sunset provision to Section 303(i) of the Social Security Act, effectively making permanent the authority requiring state agencies to disclose wage and claim information to HUD and public housing agencies. The Housing and Community Development Act of 1987 authorizes HUD to require applicants for and participants in (as well as members of their households six years of age and older) HUD administered rental housing assistance programs to disclose to HUD their social security numbers as a condition of initial or continuing eligibility for participation in these HUD programs. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (Budget Reconciliation Act) authorizes HUD to request from the Social Security Administration federal tax data as prescribed in section 6103 (l)(7) of title 26 of the United States Code (Internal Revenue Code).</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="purpose"><xhtmlContent><p>The primary purpose of the PIC is to allow PHAs to electronically submit information to HUD that is related to the administration of HUD's Public and Indian Housing programs. The first component of PIC was successfully implemented on December 15, 1999. PIC provides automated interactive support in an IIS/MTS/SQL Server environment for the Office of Public and Indian Housing staff. It collects data for PIH operations, including data submitted via the Internet from HUD's field offices and HUD's business partners, and accurately tracks activities and processes. PIC also helps to increase sharing of information throughout the Office of Public and Indian Housing, which improves staff awareness of activities related to the administration of HUD-subsidized housing programs. PIC is a flexible, scaleable, Internet-based integrated system, which enables PHA users and HUD personnel to access a common database of PHA information via their web browser. PIC will aid HUD and entities that administer HUD's assisted housing programs in: (a) Increasing the effective distribution of rental assistance to individuals that meet the requirements of Federal rental assistance programs, (b) detecting abuses in assisted housing programs, (c) taking administrative or legal actions to resolve past abuses of assisted housing programs, (d) deterring abuses by verifying the income of applicants and tenants at the time of occupancy and at re-certification via the use of electronic income data received from state wage-information collection agencies (SWICAs), one or more private vendors and, the Social Security Administration, (e) evaluating the effectiveness of income discrepancy resolution actions taken by PHAs, owners and management agents for HUD's rental assistance programs, (f) evaluating program effectiveness, (g) improving the reporting rate, (h) forecasting budgets, (i) controlling funds, and (j) updating building and unit data. PIC is a management information system that contains tools to help: (1) distribute capital and operating funds, (2) monitor the Event Tracking System (ETS) by HUD staff, (3) produce management reports, and (4) conduct risk assessments.</p>
<p>The Public and Indian Housing Information Center (PIC) serves as a repository for automated information used when comparing family income data reported--by recipients of Federal rental assistance--to income data received from external sources (e.g., SWICAs, SSA, etc.). Records in PIC are subject to use in authorized and approved computer matching programs regulated under the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>

On January 23, 2004, Section 453(j) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 653(j)) was amended to allow HUD to obtain income information from the (National Directory of New Hires) NDNH database (owned by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)) and disclose this information to PHAs for the purpose of verifying employment and income of rental housing program participants. HUD may disclose NDNH data to a private owner, management agent, and contract administrator under contract with HUD based on (1) an evaluation of the costs and benefits of disclosures made to PHAs, and (2) the adequacy of measures used to safeguard the security and confidentiality of information so disclosed. Disclosure of NDNH data to O/As and CAs is only as needed for verifying the employment and income of multifamily housing program participants. On March 11, 2009, Section 239 of HUD's 2009 Appropriations Act modified Section 904 of the Stewart B. Mckinney Act of 1988, as amended, to include the Disaster Housing Assistance Program (DHAP) as a "program" of HUD for the purpose of income verifications and computer matching. The Housing and Community Development Act of 1987 authorizes HUD to require applicants for and participants in HUD-administered rental housing assistance programs to disclose to HUD their SSNs as a condition of initial or continued eligibility for participation in these HUD programs. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (Budget Reconciliation Act) authorizes HUD to request from SSA Federal tax data, as prescribed in section 6103(l)(7) of title 26 of the United States Code (Internal Revenue Code).

<subsection type="categoriesOfRecords"><xhtmlContent><p>Records consist of family composition details, income, and rent data obtained from FEMA and PHAs. More specifically, the system of records contains information such as names and social security numbers for individuals and family members; alien registration information; address and tenant unit numbers; financial data such as income, adjustments to income, tenant family composition characteristics such as family size, sex of family members, information about the family that would qualify them for certain adjustments or for admission to a project limited to a special population (e.g., elderly, handicapped, or disabled); relationships of members of the household to the head of household (e.g., spouse, child); preferences applicable to the family at admission; income status at admission; race and ethnicity of household members; unit characteristics such as number of bedrooms; geographic data obtained by the PHA.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>

</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="purpose"><xhtmlContent><p>Purpose:</p>
<p>An applicant completes, or a FEMA representative assists in filling out, an application that determines an applicant's eligibility for disaster housing assistance. FEMA then completes the disaster housing application and validation process for determining a family's eligibility to receive disaster housing assistance. Under the Disaster Housing Assistance Program (DHAP), when an individual or family is determined by FEMA to be eligible, the required family and household data is then submitted to the HUD DIS. Once received, HUD will initiate the process for the Public Housing Agencies (PHA), the entities that administer DHAP to provide the housing assistance to the FEMA-determined eligible families. The following information is required by the disaster housing assistance program: (1) Names of all persons who will be living in the unit, social security numbers, their sex, date of birth, citizenship, and relationship to the family head; (2) FEMA disaster and registration number (3) Pre-disaster and current address and telephone numbers; (4) Family housing characteristics (e.g., number of bedrooms) or disability accommodation requirements; (5) Names, addresses, and taxpayer identification number for current landlords; and (6) rental payments and utility costs. DIS also allows PHAs to electronically submit information to HUD that is related to the administration of DHAP, including continued verification of eligibility and lease effective and end dates. It collects data for DHAP operations and provides capabilities for accurately tracking, monitoring, and reporting program activities and processes.</p>
<p>Additionally, as part of HUD's oversight responsibility, the collected data maintained in DIS is used to calculate the amount of subsidy authorized and disbursed to PHAs and to monitor the PHAs' overall performance and use of DHAP funds.</p>
<p>DIS is a flexible, scalable, web-enabled application that aids HUD and PHA staff to administer the disaster housing assistance program by: (a) Increasing the efficiency of delivering housing assistance benefits to disaster victims; (b) Detecting and resolving program eligibility problems; (c) Evaluating program effectiveness; (d) Improving program reporting; and (e) Eliminating the payment of duplicate disaster benefits. Records in DIS are subject to use in authorized and approved computer matching programs regulated under the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended.</p></xhtmlContent></subsection>
<subsection type="routineUsesOfRecords"><xhtmlContent><p>In addition to the uses cited in the section of this document titled "Purposes", other routine uses may include:
</p><p>1. To PHAs to verify the accuracy and completeness of tenant data used in verifying continued eligibility and the amount of disaster housing assistance. Any information shared back to the PHAs will pertain only to that PHA's operations and no other PHA's operations;
</p><p>2. To PHAs to identify and resolve discrepancies in tenant data;
 </p><p>3. To the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to identify duplicate rental housing assistance applicants and provide DHAP eligible family data updates and reports;
</p><p>4. To the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and U.S. Social Security Administration for computer matching to verify the accuracy and completeness of the data provided, to verify continued eligibility in DHAP, and to aid in the identification of family data error, fraud, and abuse in DHAP through HUD's income computer matching program;
</p><p>5. To the Immigration and Naturalization Service for alien status verification;

<subsection type="authorityForMaintenance"><xhtmlContent><p>Subparagraph (D) of section 6103(l)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code 26 U.S.C. 6103(l)(7)(D), permits HUD to request from the Commissioner of the SSA and the Secretary of the Treasury, SSA and IRS earned and unearned income information, respectively, needed to verify the incomes of tenants who receive rental assistance. Section 6103(l)(7)(D) precludes HUD from redisclosing that information to entities that administer HUD programs (i.e. POAs). Section 542(b) of HUD's 1998 Appropriations Act (Pub. L. 105-65; October 27, 1997) eliminated a September 30, 1998 sunset provision to 26 U.S.C. 6103(l)(7)(D), effectively making permanent the authority for SSA and IRS disclosures of return information to HUD. 
</p><p>The Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Amendments Act of 1988, 42 U.S.C. 3544, as amended, allows HUD to notify POAs that discrepancies exist between the tenant-reported incomes and income obtained from independent income sources, i.e., the SSA or the IRS. The McKinney Amendments of 1988 also authorized HUD to request, under section 303(i) of the Social Security Act, wage and claim information from state agencies responsible for the administration of state unemployment law. Section 542(a)(1) of HUD's 1998 Appropriation Act, referenced above, eliminated an October 1, 1994, sunset provision to section 303(i) of the Social Security Act, effectively making permanent the authority requiring state agencies to disclose wage and claim information to HUD and public housing agencies. 
</p><p>Section 165 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1987, Public Law 100-242; authorizes HUD to require applicants and participants in HUD-administered programs involving rental assistance to disclose to HUD their social security numbers as a condition of initial or continuing eligibility for participation. Subpart T of 24 CFR part 200 applies this requirement to member of households six (6) years of age and older. 
</p><p>Applicable laws concerning HUD's assisted housing programs include: the United States Housing Act of 1937, 42 U.S.C. 1437 note; and section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, 12 U.S.C. 1701s, and the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996, 25 U.S.C. 4101, et seq.

                        (a) The purpose of this part is to establish policies and procedures for implementing the Privacy Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93-579), 5 U.S.C. 552(a). The main objectives are to facilitate full exercise of rights conferred on individuals under the Act and to insure the protection of privacy as to individuals about whom the Department maintains records in systems of records under the Act. The Department accepts the responsibility to act promptly and in accordance with the Act upon receipt of any inquiry, request or appeal from a citizen of the United States or an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence into the United States, regardless of the age of the individual.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (b) Further, the Department accepts the obligations to maintain only such information on individuals as is relevant and necessary to the performance of its lawful functions, to maintain that information with such accuracy, relevancy, timeliness and completeness as is reasonably necessary to assure fairness in determinations made by the Department about the individual, to obtain information from the individual to the extent practicable, and to take every reasonable step to protect that information from unwarranted disclosure. The Department will maintain no record describing how an individual exercises rights guaranteed by the First Amendment unless expressly authorized by statute or by the individual about whom the record is maintained or unless pertinent to and within the scope of an authorized law enforcement activity.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (c) This part applies to all organizational components in the Department in order to assure the maximum amount of uniformity and consistency within the Department in its implementation of the Act.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (d) The Assistant Secretary for Administration shall be responsible for carrying out the requirements of this part, for issuing such orders and directives internal to the Department as are necessary for full compliance with the Act, and for effecting publication of all required notices concerning systems of records.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (e) Requests involving information pertaining to an individual which is in a record or file but not within the scope of a System of Records Notice published in the <i>Federal Register</i> are outside the scope of this part. Requests for departmental records will be considered to determine whether processing under this part, part 15, or both is most appropriate, notwithstanding the requester's characterization of the request, as follows:
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (1) <i>A Privacy Act request from an individual for records about that individual and not contained in a Privacy Act Records System</i> shall be considered a Freedom of Information Act request and processed under HUD Freedom of Information Act regulations (24 CFR part 15) to the extent that the requester has provided the Department a reasonable description of the documents requested. When a request for records is so considered as a Freedom of Information Act request, the Privacy Act Officer shall promptly refer it to the head of the appropriate organizational unit in accordance with HUD FOIA Regulations and shall advise the requester that time of receipt for processing purposes will be the time when it is received by the appropriate official.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (2) <i>A Freedom of Information Act request from an individual for records about that individual contained in a Privacy Act Records System</i> shall be processed as follows:

                    </p>
                    <p>
                        (i) A document bearing the individual's photograph (for example, passport or military or civilian identification card);

In the event the individual can provide no suitable documentation of identity, the Department will require a signed statement asserting the individual's identity and stipulating that the individual understands the penalty provision of 5 U.S.C. 552a(i)(3). That penalty provision also appears at &#167; 16.13(a). In order to avoid any unwarranted disclosure of an individual's records, the Department reserves the right to determine to its satisfaction whether proof of identity offered by any individual is adequate.

In addition, such other individual shall establish his or her representative capacity of parent or legal guardian. In the case of the parent of a minor, the proof of identity shall be a certified or authenticated copy of the minor's birth certificate. In the case of a legal guardian of an individual who has been declared incompetent due to physical or mental incapacity or age by a court of competent jurisdiction, the proof of identity shall be a certified or authenticated copy of the court's order. A parent or legal guardian may act only for a living individual, not for a decedent. A parent or legal guardian may be accompanied during personal access to a record by another individual, provided the provisions of &#167; 16.5(e) are satisfied.

                        <p>
                            (iii) The earliest date on which the record may be inspected and the period of time that the records will remain available for inspection and/or the estimated date by which a copy of the record could be mailed and the estimate of fees pursuant to &#167; 16.12;
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (iv) The fact that the individual, if he or she wishes, may be accompanied by another individual during personal access, subject to procedures set forth in paragraph (e) of this section; and
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (v) Any additional requirements needed to grant access to a specific record.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (2) <i>Methods of access.</i> The following methods of access to records by an individual may be available depending on the circumstances of a given situation:
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (i) Inspection in person may be had in the office specified by the Privacy Act Officer granting access during hours indicated by the Privacy Act Officer;
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (ii) Transfer of records to a Federal facility more convenient to the individual may be arranged, but only if the Privacy Act Officer determines that a suitable facility is available, that the individual's access can be properly supervised at the facility, and that transmittal of the records to that facility will not unduly interfere with operations of the Department or involve unreasonable costs, in terms of both money and manpower; and
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (iii) Copies may be mailed at the request of the individual, subject to payment of the fees prescribed in &#167; 16.12. The Department, at its own initiative, may elect to provide a copy by mail, in which case no fee will be charged the individual.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (c) The Department shall supply such other information and assistance at the time of access as to make the record intelligible to the individual.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (d) The Department reserves the right to limit access to copies and abstracts of original records, rather than the original records. This election would be appropriate, for example, when the record is in an automated data media such as tape or disc, when the record contains information on other individuals, and when deletion of information is permissible under exemptions (for example, 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2)). In no event shall original records of the Department be made available to the individual except under the immediate supervision of the Privacy Act Officer or his designee. It is a crime to conceal, mutilate, obliterate, or destroy any record filed in a public office, or to attempt to do any of the foregoing, Title 18, United States Code, 2701(a).
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (e) Any individual who requests access to a record pertaining to that individual may be accompanied by another individual of his or her choice. <i>Accompanied</i> includes discussion of the record in the presence of the other individual. The individual to whom the record pertains shall authorize the presence of the other individual by a signed and dated document which includes the name of the other individual and specifically describes the record to which access is sought. The other individual shall sign the authorization in the presence of the Privacy Act Officer. An individual shall not be required to state a reason or otherwise justify his or her decision to be accompanied by another individual during personal access to a record.

The term <i>promptly</i> in this &#167; 16.9 means within thirty days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays). If the Privacy Act Officer cannot make the determination within thirty days, the individual will be advised in writing of the reason therefor and of the estimated date by which the determination will be made.

                        <p>
                            (b) Whenever an individual's record is corrected or amended pursuant to a request by that individual, the Privacy Act Officer shall see to the notification of all persons and agencies to which the corrected or amended portion of the record had been disclosed prior to its correction or amendment, if an accounting of such disclosure was made as required by the Act. The notification shall require a recipient agency maintaining the record to acknowledge receipt of the notification, to correct or amend the record and to appraise any agency or person to which it had disclosed the record of the substance of the correction or amendment.

It should identify the date of the final determination and be signed by the individual. The Privacy Appeals Officer shall acknowledge receipt of such statement and inform the individual of the date on which it was received;
                        </p>

If such exempt records are within a request for access, the Department will advise the individual of their existence and of the name and address of the source agency. For any further information concerning the record and the exemption, the individual must contact that source agency.

                            (b) The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development has determined that the Office of the Assistant Inspector General for Investigation performs, as its principal function, activities pertaining to the enforcement of criminal laws. The records maintained by that office in a system identified as "HUD/DEPT-24, Investigation Files," primarily consist of information compiled for the purpose of criminal investigations and are associated with identifiable individuals. Therefore, the Secretary has determined that this system of records shall be exempt, consistent with 5 U.S.C. 552a(j)(2), from all requirements of the Privacy Act except 5 U.S.C. 552a (b), (c) (1) and (2), (e)(4) (A) through (F), (e) (6), (7), (9), (10), and (11), and (i) unless elsewhere exempted.

This exemption allows the Department to withhold records compiled for law enforcement purposes. The reasons for adopting this exemption are to prevent individuals, who are the subjects of investigation, from frustrating the investigatory process, to ensure the integrity of the investigatory process, to ensure the integrity of law enforcement activities, to prevent disclosure of investigative techniques, and to protect the confidentiality of sources of information. The names of systems correspond to those published in the <i>Federal Register</i> as part of the Department's Notice of Systems of Records.

                            (c) The system of records entitled "HUD/PIH-1. Tenant Eligibility Verification Files" consists in part of investigatory material compiled for law enforcement purposes. Relevant records will be used by appropriate Federal, state or local agencies charged with the responsibility for investigating or prosecuting violations of law. Therefore, to the extent that information in the system falls within the coverage of subsection (k)(2) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2), the system is exempt from the requirements of the following subsections of the Privacy Act, for the reasons stated below.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (1) From subsection (c)(3) because release of an accounting of disclosures to an individual who may be the subject of an investigation could reveal the nature and scope of the investigation and could result in the altering or destruction of evidence, improper influencing of witnesses, and other evasive actions that could impede or compromise the investigation.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (2) From subsection (d)(1) because release of the records to an individual who may become or has become the subject of an investigation could interfere with pending or prospective law enforcement proceedings, constitute an unwarranted invasion of the personal privacy of third parties, reveal the identity of confidential sources, or reveal sensitive investigative techniques and procedures.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (3) From subsection (d)(2) because amendment or correction of the records could interfere with pending or prospective law enforcement proceedings, or could impose an impossible administrative and investigative burden by requiring the office that maintains the records to continuously retrograde its verifications of tenant eligibility attempting to resolve questions of accuracy, relevance, timeliness and completeness.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (4) From subsection (e)(1) because it is often impossible to determine relevance or necessity of information in pre-investigative early stages. The value of such information is a question of judgment and timing; what appears relevant and necessary when collected may ultimately be evaluated and viewed as irrelevant and unnecessary to an investigation. In addition, the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing, or investigators, may obtain information concerning the violation of laws other than those within the scope of its jurisdiction. In the interest of effective law enforcement, the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing, or investigators, should retain this information because it may aid in establishing patterns of unlawful activity and provide leads for other law enforcement agencies. Further, in obtaining the evidence, information may be provided which relates to matters incidental to the main purpose of the inquiry or investigation but which may be pertinent to the investigative jurisdiction of another agency. Such information cannot readily be identified.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (d) The system of records entitled "HUD/PIH-1. Tenant Eligibility Verification Files" consists in part of material that may be used for the purpose of determining suitability, eligibility, or qualifications for Federal civilian employment or Federal contracts, the release of which would reveal the identity of a source who furnished information to the Government under an express promise that the identity of the source would be held in confidence. Therefore, to the extent that information in this system falls within the coverage of subsection (k)(5) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(5), the system is exempt from the requirements of the following subsection of the Privacy Act, for the reasons stated below.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (1) From subsection (d)(1) because release would reveal the identity of a source who furnished information to the Government under an express promise of confidentiality. Revealing the identity of a confidential source could impede future cooperation by sources, and could result in harassment or harm to such sources.

                        <p>
                            (1) The record was compiled in reasonable anticipation of a civil action or proceeding; or the record is subject to a Privacy Act exemption under &#167; 2003.8 or &#167; 2003.9 of this part; and

                            (1) The final determination of the Inspector General, as Privacy Appeals Officer for the OIG, will be in writing and will constitute final action of the Department on a request for access to a record in an OIG system of records; and

                            (a) The systems of records entitled "Investigative Files of the Office of Inspector General," "Hotline Complaint Files of the Office of Inspector General," "Name Indices System of the Office of Inspector General," and "AutoInvestigation of the Office of Inspector General" consist, in part, of information compiled by the OIG for the purpose of criminal law enforcement investigations. Therefore, to the extent that information in these systems falls within the scope of exemption (j)(2) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(j)(2), these systems of records are exempt from the requirements of the following subsections of the Privacy Act, for the reasons stated in paragraphs (a)(1) through (6) of this section.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (1) From subsection (c)(3), because release of an accounting of disclosures to an individual who is the subject of an investigation could reveal the nature and scope of the investigation and could result in the altering or destruction of evidence, improper influencing of witnesses, and other evasive actions that could impede or compromise the investigation.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (2) From subsection (d)(1), because release of investigative records to an individual who is the subject of an investigation could interfere with pending or prospective law enforcement proceedings, constitute an unwarranted invasion of the personal privacy of third parties, reveal the identity of confidential sources, or reveal sensitive investigative techniques and procedures.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (3) From subsection (d)(2), because amendment or correction of investigative records could interfere with pending or prospective law enforcement proceedings, or could impose an impossible administrative and investigative burden by requiring the OIG to continuously retrograde its investigations attempting to resolve questions of accuracy, relevance, timeliness and completeness.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (4) From subsection (e)(1), because it is often impossible to determine relevance or necessity of information in the early stages of an investigation. The value of such information is a question of judgment and timing; what appears relevant and necessary when collected may ultimately be evaluated and viewed as irrelevant and unnecessary to an investigation. In addition, the OIG may obtain information concerning the violation of laws other than those within the scope of its jurisdiction. In the interest of effective law enforcement, the OIG should retain this information because it may aid in establishing patterns of unlawful activity and provide leads for other law enforcement agencies. Further, in obtaining evidence during an investigation, information may be provided to the OIG which relates to matters incidental to the main purpose of the investigation but which may be pertinent to the investigative jurisdiction of another agency. Such information cannot readily be identified.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (5) From subsection (e)(2), because in a law enforcement investigation it is usually counterproductive to collect information to the greatest extent practicable directly from the subject thereof. It is not always feasible to rely upon the subject of an investigation as a source for information which may implicate him or her in illegal activities. In addition, collecting information directly from the subject could seriously compromise an investigation by prematurely revealing its nature and scope, or could provide the subject with an opportunity to conceal criminal activities, or intimidate potential sources, in order to avoid apprehension.
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            (6) From subsection (e)(3), because providing such notice to the subject of an investigation, or to other individual sources, could seriously compromise the investigation by prematurely revealing its nature and scope, or could inhibit cooperation, permit the subject to evade apprehension, or cause interference with undercover activities.
                        </p>

Therefore, to the extent that information in these systems fall within the coverage of exemption (k)(5) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(5), these systems of records are exempt from the requirements of subsection (d)(1), because release would reveal the identity of a source who furnished information to the Government under an express promise of confidentiality. Revealing the identity of a confidential source could impede future cooperation by sources, and could result in harassment or harm to such sources.
