DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Privacy Act of 1974; Amendment of Existing Systems of Records
AGENCY: Department of Energy (DOE).
ACTION: Amendment of Existing Systems of Records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Federal Agencies are required by the Privacy Act of 1974
(Pub.L. 93-579, 5 U.S.C. 552a) to publish notice in the Federal
Register of proposed amendments to the routine uses of existing systems
of records. The Department of Energy proposes to amend twelve existing
systems of records to permit disclosure to health studies advisory
entities and disclosure for epidemiological and other health studies
and surveys as a routine use of data contained in these systems. In
certain of these systems, the proposed amended routine use disclosures
will replace previously established routine uses pertaining to health
studies so that these systems will reflect the Department's health
studies program as it is currently constituted. The text of this notice
itemizes the previously established routine uses and the proposed new
routine uses for each of the twelve systems.
The systems of records to be amended are: DOE-01, DOE Personnel and
General Employment Records; DOE-05, Personnel Records of Former
Contractor Employees; DOE-13, Payroll and Leave Records; DOE-33,
Personnel Medical Records; DOE-35, Personnel Radiation Exposure
Records; DOE-36, Statistical Analysis Using Personnel Security
Questionnaire (Health and Mortality Study); DOE-38, Occupational and
Industrial Accident Records); DOE-40, Contractor Employees Insurance
Claims; DOE-67, Participants in Experiments, Studies, and Surveys; DOE-
71, The Radiation Accident Registry; DOE-72, The Department of Energy
Radiation Study Registry; and DOE-73, The US-DTPA Registry.
DATES: The proposed revisions will become effective without further
notice 40 days after publication in the Federal Register (August 7,
1995), unless comments are received on or before that date that would
result in a contrary determination and a notice is published to that
effect.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be directed to the following
address: Director, FOIA/Privacy Act Division, Office of Executive
Secretariat, U.S. Department of Energy, HR-78, 1000 Independence
Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20585. Written comments will be available
for inspection at the above address between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4
p.m.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department proposes to amend the routine
uses of twelve existing systems of records to permit information
contained in those systems to be used in epidemiological studies and
surveys. The text of this notice contains a description of each of
these twelve systems of records, which was published by the National
Archives and Records Administration's Office of the Federal Register in
Volume I of the Federal Register's 1993 Privacy Act Issuances and
Compilations. The text of this notice also includes the proposed new
routine uses for each system of records.
The Department has established an epidemiology and health
surveillance program to determine the health effects of the
Department's activities on workers and populations having access, or in
proximity, to the Department's facilities. Epidemiological studies are
an important means of improving public health. They permit the
scientific evaluation of the effects of exposure to potentially harmful
materials by determining and quantifying health effects associated with
such exposures. Health surveys, which are used to assess immediate
health issues, are designed to discover the occupational source of
outbreaks of illness, injury, or death, and to describe the extent of
exposure to specific substances at a single point in time. Surveillance
is used to identify new and emerging health problems by monitoring
groups of workers, who have the same job or exposures, for changes in
their illness and injury patterns over time.
Seven of these systems already have routine uses for
epidemiological and health studies: DOE-5, DOE-35, DOE-36, DOE-67, DOE-
71, DOE-72, DOE-73. The proposed amendments to the existing routine
uses of these seven systems and the addition of these routine uses to
the other five systems of records will assist the Department in
studying and monitoring individual and aggregate population health
risks from exposures to radiation or other hazards that may have
occurred as a result of the Department's operations and other energy
related activities.
Pursuant to Memoranda of Understanding with the Department of
Health and Human Services (``HHS''), 56 FR 9701, March 7, 1991, and the
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (``ATSDR''), October
10, 1990, studies, surveys and surveillances will be conducted by units
of the Public Health Service, including the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health and the National Center for
Environmental Health of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), and ATSDR, their contractors, grantees, and cooperative
agreement holders.
The studies are focussed on a variety of areas that are important
for assessing the real and potential health risks to workers and the
public resulting from the Department's energy-related technologies and
activities. The studies should provide information that is necessary
for long-range energy planning pursuant to continued development of the
national energy strategy. The health studies include all Department
facilities and workers, including contractor employees, and other
special populations that have relevance to the Department's mission.
States also may perform studies as the Department's or the Department
of Health and Human Services' contractors, grantees, or cooperative
agreement holders.
The proposed additional routine uses to the twelve systems are:
(1) A record from this system of records may be disclosed to
facilitate health hazard evaluations, epidemiological studies, or
public health activities required by law performed by personnel,
contractor personnel, grantees, and cooperative agreement holders of
components of the Department of Health and Human Services, including
the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and the
National Center for Environmental Health of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease
Registry pursuant to Memoranda of Understanding between the Department
and the Department of Health and Human Services or its components.
(2) Subject to the same Privacy Act limitations applicable to
employees of the Department, a record from this system of records may
be disclosed as a routine use to contractors, grantees,
[[Page 33511]] participants in cooperative agreements, collaborating
researchers, or their employees in performance of health studies or
related health or environmental duties pursuant to their contracts,
grants, and cooperating or collaborating research agreements. In order
to perform such studies, the Department, its contractors, grantees,
participants in cooperative agreements, and collaborating researchers
may disclose a record to: Federal, state, and local health and medical
agencies or authorities; to subcontractors in order to determine a
subject's vital status or cause of death; to health care providers to
verify a diagnosis or cause of death; or to third parties to obtain
current addresses for participants in health-related studies, surveys
and surveillances. All recipients of such records are required to
comply with the Privacy Act, to follow prescribed measures to protect
personal privacy, and to disclose or use personally identifiable
information only for the above described research purposes.
(3) A record from this system of records may be disclosed to
members of DOE advisory committees, the Department of Health and Human
Services Advisory Committee on Projects Related to Department of Energy
Facilities, and to designated employees of Federal, State, or local
government or government-sponsored entities authorized to provide
advice to the Department concerning health, safety or environmental
issues. All recipients of such records are required to comply with the
Privacy Act, to follow prescribed measures to protect personal privacy,
and to disclose or use personally identifiable information only for the
purpose of providing advice to the Department or to the Department of
Health and Human Services.
The proposed amendments should not have adverse privacy
consequences. Health studies tend to benefit persons in the studied
populations by identifying possible toxic agents. Individuals are never
identified in published studies and the studies are not used to support
determinations concerning any individual's rights, benefits, or
privileges.
Furthermore, privacy interests will be protected by a number of
means. As a condition of releasing individually identifiable
information for studies, surveys or surveillances conducted for DOE,
persons conducting studies will be required to: (1) Keep personal
information confidential; (2) use personal information only for
purposes of studies in which there is no publication of the identity of
any individual subject; (3) consult with DOE prior to any release of
personally identifiable information obtained from DOE; (4) establish
reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to prevent
unauthorized use or disclosure of the record; (5) make no further use
or disclosure of the record except (a) in emergency circumstances
affecting the health or safety of any individual, (b) for use in
another research project under these same conditions and with written
authorization of the Department, (c) for disclosure to an authorized
person for the purpose of an audit related to the research project, and
(d) when required by law. Additionally, the Department will secure a
written statement attesting to the recipient's understanding of, and
willingness to abide by, these provisions. The provisions in this
paragraph apply to DOE collaborating researchers, not those studies
being performed by the Department of Health and Human Services.
Privacy safeguards are in place regarding the studies to be
conducted pursuant to the Memoranda of Understanding with Department of
Health and Human Services or its components. Department of Health and
Human Services has agreed: (1) Not to use or disclose any personally-
identifiable information obtained from DOE or its contractors and
grantees except for research purposes or other public health activities
required by law; (2) not to use information in identifiable form to
make any determination about the rights, benefits, or privileges of any
individual; (3) to use and disclose information in accord with
agreements under which the personally-identifiable information was
obtained by the Department or its contractors, provided such use or
disclosure is consistent with applicable law; (4) to notify the
Department of any efforts to use or obtain personally-identifiable
information for purposes other than research or other public health
activities required by law; (5) to use and take appropriate steps to
prevent improper disclosure; (6) to establish or modify Privacy Act
systems of records broadening the ``Categories of Individuals'' section
to specifically address information provided by DOE, as necessary, and
consult with the Department concerning provisions of Privacy Act
systems of records notices. Additionally, Department of Health and
Human Services requires its contractors, grantees, and cooperative
agreement holders performing epidemiological studies and other public
health activities to abide by conditions similar to those imposed by
the Department, as described in this paragraph.
The types of records needed will be determined by the design and
goals of each particular study. Examples of possible types of data
needed from the twelve systems of records include, questionnaires,
demographic information, work history, medical and reproductive
history, birth data, radiation and other exposure history, laboratory
test results, data from prior health studies, surveys, and
surveillances; and alcohol and tobacco use history. Data of this type
are found in records such as health study or personnel files and lists,
training files, medical records, legal case files, bioassay records,
industrial hygiene files, radiation and other hazard exposure records,
occupational and industrial accident records, employee medical
insurance claims, personnel security clearance questionnaires, and
employee and visitor access control records.
In 1989, the Department published a proposed establishment of two
routine uses for DOE-5, DOE-33, DOE-35, DOE-71, DOE-72, and DOE-73 (54
FR 47808 dated November 17, 1989). The two proposed routine uses were
published as follows: (1) ``A record from this system of records may be
disclosed to researchers for the purpose of conducting an
epidemiological study of workers at a DOE facility if their proposed
studies have been reviewed by the National Academy of Sciences and
deemed appropriate for such access. A researcher granted access to
these records shall be required to sign an agreement to protect the
confidentiality of the data and be subject to the same restrictions
applicable to DOE officers and employees under the Privacy Act.'' (2)
``A record from this system of records may be disclosed to a member of
an advisory committee for purposes of conducting a review of the DOE's
epidemiologic program. Members of an advisory committee who obtain
access to the records shall be subject to the same restrictions
applicable to DOE officers and employees under the Privacy Act.'' The
Department received comments to the contrary on the proposed routine
uses, but did not publish a response to the comments. This notice
eliminates the above-mentioned routine uses and proposes to establish
new routine uses for the twelve systems of records for the purposes of
performing epidemiological studies.
The Department is submitting the report required by Office of
Management and Budget Circular A-130 concurrently with the publication
of [[Page 33512]] this notice. The text of this notice contains the
information required by section (e)(4)(d) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C.
552a(e)(4)(d).
