NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

Privacy Act of 1974, As Amended; Revisions to Existing System of 
Records

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Proposed revisions to an existing system of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended 
(Privacy Act), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing 
public notice of its intent to modify an existing system of records, 
NRC-40, ``Facility Security Access Control Records--NRC,'' to revise a 
number of categories in the system notice, including individuals 
covered by the system, records contained in the system, record source 
categories, authority, retrievability, and safeguards. In addition, the 
list of NRC building locations contained in NRC's compilation of 
systems of records notices is being updated to reflect current 
addresses.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The revisions will become effective without further 
notice on October 2, 1995, unless comments received on or before that 
date cause a contrary decision. If, based on NRC's review of comments 
received, changes are made, NRC will publish a new final notice.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, Attention: 
Docketing and Services Branch. Hand deliver comments to 11555 Rockville 
Pike, Rockville, Maryland, between 7:45 am and 4:15 pm Federal 
workdays. Copies of comments received may be examined at the NRC Public 
Document Room at 2120 L Street, NW., Lower Level, Washington, DC.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jona L. Souder, Freedom of 
Information/Local Public Document Room Branch, Division of Freedom of 
Information and Publications Services, Office of Administration, U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, telephone: 
301-415-7170.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NRC is proposing to amend the system notice 
for NRC-40, ``Facility Security Access Control Records--NRC,'' to add 
``approved visitors'' as a new category of individuals covered by the 
system. NRC-40 currently contains information on visitors in log 
entries and other written materials not retrieved by name or personal 
identifier. The records on visitors are time consuming to complete and 
review, and cumbersome to store. The overall process is outdated. An 
automated database for visitor registrations with an advance notice 
capability option available on NRC's local area network is being 
developed to alleviate this problem and to improve processing and 
monitoring capabilities of individuals entering NRC buildings. 
Information in the visitor database will be retrieved by the visitor's 
name, employer's name, date of visit, and sponsor's name.
    The categories of records section in the system is also being 
revised to include information on approved visitors and to add visitors 
as a record source category. In addition, minor changes are being made 
to other sections of the system notice, including authority, 
retrievability, and safeguards, to make it more accurate and current.
    A report on the proposed revisions to this system of records, 
required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
Circular No. A-130, is being sent to the Committee on Governmental 
Affairs, U.S. Senate; the Committee on Government Reform and Oversight, 
U.S. House of Representatives; and OMB.
    The list of NRC building locations contained in Addendum I to the 
NRC's compilation of systems of records notices that was published in 
the Federal Register on July 7, 1993 (58 FR 36455), is being updated to 
reflect current addresses.
    Accordingly, the NRC proposes to amend NRC-40 and Addendum I to 
read as follows:
NRC-40
    Facility Security Access Control Records--NRC.
    Primary system--Division of Security, Office of Administration, 
NRC, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland, and 11545 Rockville 
Pike, Rockville, Maryland.
    Duplicate systems--Duplicate systems exist, in whole or in part, at 
the Technical Training Center, NRC, Osborne Office Center, 5700 
Brainerd Road, Suite 200, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37411-4017, and the 
locations listed in Addendum I, Part 2.
    Persons including current and former NRC employees, consultants, 
contractors, other Government agency personnel, and approved visitors.
    These records include information regarding NRC personal 
identification badges for access to NRC-controlled space, which 
includes, but is not limited to, an individual's name, social security 
number, citizenship, employer, purpose of visit, person visited, and 
date and time of visit.

this system of records without the consent of the subject individual if 
the disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the record was 
collected under any of the routine uses specified in the Prefatory 
Statement of General Routine Uses.
    Records are maintained in paper form in logs and files, and on 
computer media.
    Information is indexed and accessed by an individual's name, 
identification badge number, employer's name, date of visit, or 
sponsor's name.
    All records are maintained in NRC-controlled space that is secured 
after normal duty hours or in security areas under guard presence. 
Automated records are protected by password.
    a. Records and forms related to NRC identification badges are 
retained in files and destroyed when superseded or obsolete.
    b. Manual visitor logs are retained in cabinets and destroyed 2 
years after date of entry.

    c. The automated access control system reflects access to 
controlled areas and employee/contractor/visitor identification 
information. These records are disposed of after the retention period 
for those records identified in a. and b., or when no longer needed, 
whichever is later.
