[Notice (07-077)]


Privacy Act of 1974; Privacy Act System of Records Appendices

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Revisions of NASA appendices to Privacy Act system of records.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that NASA is amending the standard 
appendices that it regularly publishes with the Agency's systems of 
records under the Privacy Act of 1974. In this notice, NASA (1) names 
an additional location, the NASA Shared Services Center, and updates 
Locations 16 and 17 for clarity in Appendix A where NASA systems of 
records may be maintained; (2) updates Office of Inspector General 
locations; (3) revises its previous routine use in Appendix B, the 
Agency's Standard Routine Uses to ensure the Agency's litigation 
routine use is in compliance with the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) Privacy Act Guidance--Update dated May 24, 1985; and (4) sets 
forth a new routine use in Appendix B, the Agency's Standard Routine 
Uses as required by OMB Memorandum 07-16 dated May 22, 2007 entitled 
``Safeguarding Against and Responding to the Breach of Personally 
Identifiable Information.'' This new routine use enables the Agency to 
quickly and effectively respond to a breach of personally identifiable 
information through disclosure of information regarding the breach to 
those individuals affected by it, as well as to persons and entities in 
a position to cooperate, either by assisting in notification to 
affected individuals or playing a role in preventing or minimizing 
harms from the breach.

DATES: Submit comments on or before 30 calendar days from the date of 
this publication. These changes will be effective as proposed at the 
end of the comment period unless comments are received which would 
require a contrary determination.

Information Officer, National Aeronautics and Space Administration

APPENDIX B STANDARD ROUTINE USES--NASA

    The following routine uses of information contained in SORs, 
subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, are standard for many NASA 
systems. They are cited by reference in the paragraph ``Routine uses 
of records maintained in the system, including categories of users 
and the purpose of such uses'' of the Federal Register Notice on 
those systems to which they apply.
    Standard Routine Use No. 1--LAW ENFORCEMENT--In the event this 
system of records indicates a violation or potential violation of 
law, whether civil, criminal, or regulatory in nature, and whether 
arising by general statute or particular program statute, or by 
regulation, rule or order issued pursuant thereto, the relevant 
records in the SOR may be referred, as a routine use, to the 
appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local or foreign, 
charged with the responsibility of investigating or prosecuting such 
violation or charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, or 
rule, regulation or order issued pursuant thereto.
    Standard Routine Use No. 2--DISCLOSURE WHEN REQUESTING 
INFORMATION--A record from this SOR may be disclosed as a ``routine 
use'' to a Federal, State, or local agency maintaining civil, 
criminal, or other relevant enforcement information or other 
pertinent information, such as current licenses, if necessary to 
obtain information relevant to an agency decision concerning the 
hiring or retention of an employee, the issuance of a security 
clearance, the letting of a contract, or the issuance of a license, 
grant, or other benefit.
    Standard Routine Use No. 3--DISCLOSURE OF REQUESTED 
INFORMATION--A record from this SOR may be disclosed to a Federal 
agency, in response to its request, in connection with the hiring or 
retention of an employee, the issuance of a security clearance, the 
reporting of an investigation of an employee, the letting of a 
contract, or the issuance of a license, grant, or other benefit by 
the requesting agency, to the extent that the information is 
relevant and necessary to the requesting agency's decision on the 
matter.
    Standard Routine Use No. 4--DISCLOSURE TO THE DEPARTMENT OF 
JUSTICE FOR USE IN LITIGATION:
    A record from this SOR may be disclosed to the Department of 
Justice when (a) the Agency, or any component thereof; or (b) any 
employee of the Agency in his or her official capacity; or (c) any 
employee of the Agency in his or her individual capacity where the 
Department of Justice or the Agency has agreed to represent the 
employee; or (d) the United States, where the Agency determines that 
litigation is likely to affect the Agency or any of its components, 
is a party to litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and 
the use of such records by the Department of Justice or the Agency 
is deemed by the Agency to be relevant and necessary to the 
litigation provided, however, that in each case it has been 
determined that the disclosure is compatible with the purpose for 
which the records were collected.
    Standard Routine Use 5: ROUTINE USE FOR AGENCY DISCLOSURE IN 
LITIGATION
    It shall be a routine use of the records in this system of 
records to disclose them in a proceeding before a court or 
adjudicative body before which the agency is authorized to appear, 
when: (a) The Agency, or any component thereof; or (b) any employee 
of the Agency in his or her official capacity; or (c) any employee 
of the Agency in his or her individual capacity where the Agency has 
agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the United States, where 
the Agency determines that litigation is likely to affect the Agency 
or any of its components, is a party to litigation or has an 
interest in such litigation, and the use of such records by the 
Agency is deemed to be relevant and necessary to the litigation, 
provided, however, that in each case, the Agency has determined that 
the disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the records 
were collected.
    Standard Routine Use No. 6--SUSPECTED OR CONFIRMED 
CONFIDENTIALITY COMPROMISE--A record from this SOR may be disclosed 
to appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when (1) NASA 
suspects or has confirmed that the security or confidentiality of 
information in the system of records has been compromised; (2) NASA 
has determined that as a result of the suspected or confirmed 
compromise there is a risk of harm to economic or property 
interests, identity theft or fraud, or harm to the security or 
integrity of this system or other systems or programs (whether 
maintained by NASA or another agency or entity) that rely upon the 
compromised information; and (3) the disclosure made to such 
agencies, entities, and persons is reasonably necessary to assist in 
connection with NASA's efforts to respond to the suspected or 
confirmed compromise and prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.
