SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 
552a(e)(4), requires federal agencies such as OSHRC to publish in the 
Federal Register notice of any new or modified system of records. As 
detailed below, OSHRC is revising Public Transportation Benefit Program 
Records, OSHRC-3, to revise the system's name; account for changes in 
the names of the pertinent office and positions within the agency; 
revise the categories of records maintained; and update the reference 
to the applicable General Records Schedule for disposal of records. In 
addition, OSHRC in the past has relied on blanket routine uses to 
describe the circumstances under which records may be disclosed. Going 
forward, as revised notices are published for new and modified systems 
of records, a full description of the routine uses--rather than a 
reference to blanket routine uses--will be included in each notice. 
This is simply a change in format, however, and has not resulted in any 
substantive changes to the routine uses for this system of records.
    The notice for OSHRC-3, provided below in its entirety, is as 
follows.
