Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, 
DC 20020. For technical questions, contact Chakravarthy Susarla, 
Director of Applications & Support, at Department of the Treasury, 1500 
Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The adoption and implementation of 
SharePoint represents the Department of the Treasury's effort to create 
a system for Treasury employees, contractors, grantees, detailees, and 
interns with access to Treasury's Enterprise Content Management 
Environment to communicate in order to increase operational 
efficiencies. The User Profile service application stores information 
about users in a central location. Social computing features, such as 
tagging, and newsfeeds, use this information to facilitate productive 
interactions that enable users to collaborate efficiently. The 
department email directories (e.g., name, department, office phone 
number) auto-populate User Profile Services. In addition, the Profile 
Page feature gives individuals the option to provide additional 
information, such as skills and past projects.
    The report of a new system of records, as required by 5 U.S.C. 
552a(r), has been provided to the Committee on Oversight and Government 
Reform of the House of Representatives, the Committee on Homeland 
Security and Governmental Affairs of the Senate, and the Office of 
Management and Budget.
    The proposed new system of records, entitled ``Treasury .014--
Department of the Treasury SharePoint User Profile Services'' is 
published in its entirety below.
