DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

[AAG/A Order No. 003-2004]


Privacy Act of 1974: System of Records

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

[[Page 21161]]

Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), proposes to modify the 
following system of records previously published in full text in the 
Federal Register on December 10, 1998 (63 FR 68299 (1998)): Office of 
Professional Responsibility Record Index, JUSTICE/OPR-001. This system 
of records was last modified to add three routine uses in Federal 
Register notice of November 27, 2002 (67 FR 70967 (2002)).
    OPR is adding one new routine use to this system of records. This 
routine use allows the disclosure of certain information to the subject 
of an investigation or inquiry conducted by OPR for the purpose of 
furthering the investigation or inquiry, or to give notice of the 
status or outcome of the investigation or inquiry. In addition, the 
Department is revising the existing routine use for disclosure of 
records in records management inspections, since the General Services 
Administration no longer conducts record management inspections.
    Title 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4) and (11) provides that the public be 
given a 30-day period in which to comment on the proposed new routine 
use disclosures. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has 
oversight responsibilities under the Privacy Act, requires a 40-day 
period in which to conclude its review of any proposal to revise 
existing routine uses or add new routine use disclosures or make other 
major modifications.
    You may submit any comments by May 20, 2004. The public, OMB and 
the Congress are invited to send comments to Mary Cahill, Management 
Analyst, Management and Planning Staff, Justice Management Division, 
Department of Justice, Room 1400 National Place Building, Washington, 
DC 20530. If no comments are received, the proposal will be implemented 
without further notice in the Federal Register.
    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. Sec.  552a(r), the Department has 
provided a report to OMB and the Congress on the proposed new routine 
use.

    Dated: April 6, 2004.
Paul R. Corts,
Assistant Attorney General for Administration.
