PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM:
    This system aids the Board in its operation and management of the 
IPAC, including the selection and appointment of members to the IPAC.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    This system maintains information on individuals considered for 
membership on the IPAC and individuals selected to serve on the IPAC.

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
    Records in the system include identifying information about 
individuals seeking to become IPAC members and members of the IPAC, 
information relating to the selection and appointment of individuals to 
the IPAC, and records relating to service on the IPAC. Individual 
information in the system includes, but is not limited to, name, work

management of the IPAC, such as payment information for travel or

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:
    Information is provided by the individual or IPAC member to whom 
the record pertains. Board staff may also independently obtain 
available information regarding individuals seeking to become IPAC 
members.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    General routine uses A, B, C, D, E, F, G, I, and J apply to this

    Electronic records can be retrieved by name or other identifying 
aspects.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:

will be retained indefinitely.

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
    Access to records in the system is limited to those Board staff 
whose official duties require it. This is accomplished through user 
roles, which provide differential access levels to users based on their 
official duties and need-to-know.

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
    The Privacy Act allows individuals the right to access records 
maintained about them in a Board system of records. Your request for 
access must: (1) Contain a statement that it is made pursuant to the 
Privacy Act of 1974; (2) provide either the name of the Board system of 
records expected to contain the record requested or a concise 
description of the system of records; (3) provide the information 
necessary to verify your identity; and (4) provide any other 
information that may assist in the rapid identification of the record 
for which you are requesting access.
    The Board handles all Privacy Act requests as both a Privacy Act 
request and as a Freedom of Information Act request. The Board does not 
charge fees to a requestor seeking to access or amend his/her Privacy 
Act records.
    You may submit your Privacy Act request to the--Secretary of the 
Board, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 20th Street 
and Constitution Avenue NW, Washington DC 20551.
    You may also submit your Privacy Act request electronically through 
the Board's FOIA ``Electronic Request Form'' located here: https://www.federalreserve.gov/secure/forms/efoiaform.aspx.

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
    The Privacy Act allows individuals to seek amendment of information 
that is erroneous, irrelevant, untimely, or incomplete and is 
maintained in a system of records about you. To request an amendment to 
your record, you should clearly mark the request as a ``Privacy Act 
Amendment Request.'' You have the burden of proof for demonstrating the 
appropriateness of the requested amendment and you must provide 
relevant and convincing evidence in support of your request.

[[Page 2868]]

    Your request for amendment must: (1) Provide the name of the 
specific Board system of records containing the record you seek to 
amend; (2) identify the specific portion of the record you seek to 
amend; (3) describe the nature of and reasons for each requested 
amendment; (4) explain why you believe the record is not accurate, 
relevant, timely, or complete; and (5) unless you have already done so 
in a Privacy Act request for access, provide the necessary information 
to verify your identity.

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES:
    Same as ``Access procedures'' above. You may also follow this 
procedure in order to request an accounting of previous disclosures of 
records pertaining to you as provided for by 5 U.S.C. 552a(c).

EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE SYSTEM:
    None.
