PEACE CORPS


Privacy Act of 1974; Report of an Altered System of Records

AGENCY: Peace Corps.

ACTION: Notice to revise two existing systems of records.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 
1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Peace Corps proposes to revise two 
existing systems of records: Volunteer Applicant and Service Records 
System (PC-17) and Former Peace Corps Volunteer and Staff Database (PC-
18). The purpose of these alterations is to add a new routine use to 
each SORN. The Peace Corps considers certain information about 
individual Volunteers/Trainees to be ``public information.'' The new 
routine use will allow the Peace Corps to disclose the ``public 
information'' as it deems appropriate.

DATES: The revisions to both systems will become effective September 2, 
2014 without further action, unless adverse comments are received by 
Peace Corps by August 15, 2014.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by email to [email protected]. 
Include Privacy Act System of Records in the subject line of the 
message. You may also submit comments by mail to Denora Miller, Privacy 
Act Officer, Peace Corps, 1111 20th Street NW., Washington, DC 20526. 
Contact Denora Miller for copies of comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denora Miller, Privacy Act Officer,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Peace Corps proposes to revise two 
existing systems of records: Volunteer Applicant and Service Records 
System (PC-17) and Former Peace Corps Volunteer and Staff Database (PC-
18) to add a new routine use for each System of Records. As routine use 
``(n)'' for PC-17 and as routine use ``(c)'' for PC-18, the new routine 
use will allow the Peace Corps to disclose certain information about 
current and former Volunteers/Trainees as ``public information.'' The 
public information is limited to: Name, country of service and dates of 
service for current and former Peace Corps Volunteers/Trainees. 
Requests for public information will be processed through the Freedom 
of Information Act (FOIA) office. If additional information is 
requested it will be processed in accordance with the FOIA. The Peace 
Corps may also disclose the information under these two routine uses to 
the public as it deems appropriate.
    The Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, provides that the public will be 
given a 30-day period in which to comment on the new system. The Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB), which has oversight responsibility 
under the Act, requires a 40-day period in which
