SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of 
Homeland Security is giving notice that it will remove one system of 
records from its inventory of record systems because the United States 
Secret Service is consolidating system of records notices. The obsolete 
system of records notice is USSS.004 Financial Management Information 
System (August 28, 2001).

DATES: Effective Date: January 20, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Hugo Teufel III, Chief Privacy 
Officer, Department of Homeland Security, Washington, DC 20528, by 
telephone (703) 235-0780 or facsimile 1-866-466-5370.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy 
Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, and as part of its ongoing integration and 
management efforts, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is 
removing one United States Secret Service (USSS) system of records from 
its inventory of record systems.
    DHS inherited this record system upon its creation in January of 
2003. Upon review of its inventory of records systems, DHS has 
determined that records within this legacy system are covered by 
Department system of records DHS/ALL-007 Accounts Payable Records (73 
FR 61880 October 17, 2008) covering general accounts payable records, 
budget preparation and presentation materials, apportionment records, 
payroll records, pay administration records, expenditure accounting 
records, tax ID records, and records containing information on current 
and projected accounts payable; DHS/ALL-008 Accounts Receivable Records 
(73 FR 61885 October 17, 2008) covering general accounts receivable 
records, records on individuals involved in payments with DHS, and 
records containing information on current and projected accounts 
receivable; DHS/ALL-019 Payroll, Personnel, and Time and Attendance 
Records (73 FR 63172 October 23, 2008) covering employee and individual 
records, employer records, records containing information compiled for 
the purpose of pay, travel, expenses incurred other than travel, and 
retirement annuities and taxes, and time and attendance records; DHS/
ALL-013 Claims Records (73 FR 63987 October 28, 2008) covering records 
containing information compiled for the purpose of property damage, 
records containing information on tort claims dealing with USSS 
property; DHS/ALL-021 Contractors and Consultants Records (73 FR 63179 
October 23, 2008) covering contractor and vendor records; DHS/ALL-011 
Biographies and Awards Records (73 FR 66654 November 10, 2008) covering 
individuals who are recipients of awards and are retiring USSS.004 
Financial Management Information System (66 FR 45362 August 28, 2001).
    USSS.004 Financial Management Information System (66 FR 45362 
August 28, 2001) was originally established to record, track, and 
maintain USSS financial accounting information, which are now covered 
by different systems of records. Eliminating this system of records 
notice will have no adverse impacts on individuals, but will promote 
the overall streamlining and management of DHS Privacy Act system of 
record notices.

Chief Privacy Officer, Department of Homeland Security.
