Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

    Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 
552a), the

[[Page 6672]]

Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), Department of Justice, 
proposes to modify the following system of records-previously published 
July 31, 2000 (65 FR 46738):

Deportable Alien Control System (DACS), JUSTICE/INS-012

    INS proposes to add two new routine use disclosures, identified as 
routine use (K) and (L). The purpose of routine use (K) is to allow 
legal service providers to call an INS detention facility in advance of 
a visit to the site, to determine whether a certain individual is 
detained. The release of the information is discretionary and will only 
pertain to whether or not the individual concerned is currently 
detained at that facility. Routine use (L) allows contractors working 
on behalf of INS to have access to necessary information to assist in 
this program.
    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11), the public is 
given a 30-day period in which to comment on the new routine use 
disclosures. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has 
oversight responsibilities under the Act, requires a 40-day period in 
which to conclude its review of the system. Therefore, please submit 
any comments by February 21, 2001. The public, OMB, and the Congress 
are invited to send written comments to Mary Cahill, Management 
Analyst, Management and Planning Staff, Justice Management Division, 
Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20530 (Room 1400, National Place 
Building).
    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), the Department has provided a 
report to OMB and the Congress on the proposed modification.

    Dated: January 8, 2001.
Stephen R. Colgate,
Assistant Attorney General for Administration.
