SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Modifications to System of Records 09-90-0067

    This system of records was established in 1979 or earlier (see 44 
FR 58144, at 58164) by HHS' Office of General Counsel which managed the 
records until approximately 1993, when that responsibility was 
transferred to NIH and NIH established related system of records 09-25-
0168 (see 58 FR 45111). Until fiscal year (FY) 2017, NIH managed all 
records on behalf of the relevant Public Health Service (PHS) 
components (NIH, FDA, and CDC) whose funding, employment, or other 
activities give rise to the records. Starting in FY 2017, records 
related to an invention arising in FY 2017 or later that is associated 
with only one PHS component are managed by that component, and NIH now 
manages only the following records for other components: (i) Records 
related to inventions that arose prior to FY 2017, and (ii) records 
related to joint inventions associated with more than one component. 
Consequently, HHS has decided to update the department-level system of 
records notice (SORN) 09-90-0067 to cover all three components' records 
to avoid the need for multiple component-specific SORNs, and to rescind 
NIH SORN 09-25-0168.
    The modifications to SORN 09-90-0067 include the following 
substantive changes, in addition to formatting changes required by OMB 
Circular A-108 and minor wording changes throughout the SORN:
     The system name has been changed from ``Invention Reports 
Submitted to the Department of Health and Human Services by its 
Employees, Grantees, Fellowship Recipients, and Contractors'' to 
``Invention, Patent, and Licensing Documents Related to Inventions By 
Public Health Service Employees, Grantees, Fellowship Recipients, and 
Contractors.''
     The ``System Location'' and ``System Manger(s)'' sections 
now provide contact information for each relevant PHS component (NIH, 
FDA, and CDC) instead of for OGC.
     The ``Authorities'' section, which formerly cited only 45 
CFR parts 6, 7, and 8 and Executive Orders (E.O.s) 9865 and 10096, no 
longer cites 45 CFR parts 6 and 8 but now cites many additional 
authorities which were cited in NIH SORN 09-25-0168, plus these 
additional authorities which were not cited in that SORN: 42 U.S.C. 
secs. 241, 282, and 284; 37 CFR part 401; and 15 U.S.C. 3701-3708.
     The ``Categories of Records'' section now identifies more 
categories than just invention reports and includes the list of data 
elements that was in NIH SORN 09-25-0168, updated to include employing 
office or organization name and address, email address, phone, and fax 
numbers, status as Fellow or contract employee, educational degree(s), 
and citizenship, and to remove Social Security Number (SSN). SSN is 
needed only by HHS finance offices, to disburse royalty payments to an 
inventor; records used for disbursement and related functions are 
covered under another system of records (e.g., 09-90-0024 HHS Financial 
Management System Records).
     The ``Purposes'' section, which previously stated: ``To 
maintain the information and patent records for the entire 
Department,'' now includes the four purposes described in NIH SORN 09-
25-0168 (now numbered as 1, 2, 3, and 7) and three additional purposes 
(4, 5, and 6).
     The ``Record Source Categories'' section now includes 
these additional, broadened, or updated categories: Other inventors, 
co-inventors, collaborating persons; grantees, fellowship recipients 
and contractors; other federal agencies; United States and foreign 
patent offices; prospective licensees; PHS technology development 
coordinators; internet and commercial databases; and third parties who 
PHS contacts to determine individual invention ownership or government 
ownership.
     The ``Routine Uses'' section has been modified as follows:
    [cir] It includes nine new routine uses (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 
and 14; however, closely similar versions of 5 and 10 were in NIH SORN 
09-25-0168).
    [cir] It includes three revised routine uses:

--Routine use 2: This routine use, which authorizes disclosures to a 
congressional office when responding to its inquiries regarding 
constituent requests, has been reworded to include the word ``written'' 
in describing the constituents' requests and the congressional office's 
inquiries.
--Routine use 3: Two previously separate litigation-related routine 
uses are now combined in routine use 3.
--Routine use 9: Six previously separate routine uses (which were 
combined in one routine use in NIH SORN 09-25-0168 but divided in 
subparts numbered a. through f.) are now combined in routine use 9 and 
divided in subparts numbered a. through f.

    [cir] Two breach response-related routine uses which were published 
for all HHS systems of records on February 14, 2018 (see 83 FR 6591) as 
required by

[[Page 2749]]

OMB Memorandum M-17-12 are now numbered as 12 and 13.
    [cir] Five routine uses which were in NIH SORN 09-25-0168 (numbered 
as 4, 5, 6, 7, and 10 in that SORN) have not been included in modified 
SORN 09-90-0067 because the disclosures they described would be made by 
other systems of record or otherwise are no longer needed for this 
system of records.
     The ``Storage'' section has been updated to include 
electronic media and to list types of portable devices that could be 
used, with prior HHS approval, to access and store system records.
     The ``Safeguards'' section has been updated to list 
additional safeguards which are now used to protect records from 
unauthorized access (e.g., privacy and security documents and training, 
encryption, smart cards, biometrics, firewalls, and intrusion 
detection).
     The ``Retention'' section, which previously reflected that 
records are maintained onsite for the life of the patent (17 years) or 
for 7 years if the invention was not patented, and are then stored 
offsite at a federal records center (without indicating when they would 
be destroyed), now states that, currently, all records are retained in 
accordance with a NIH disposition schedule which provides for records 
to be retained for a maximum of 30 years, and that, if required, 
separate schedules will be developed for the records managed by FDA and 
CDC in FY 2017 or later.
     The ``Record Access Procedures,'' ``Contesting Record 
Procedures,'' and ``Notification Procedures'' sections now provide more 
detailed instructions for making a sufficiently specific request and 
now also include identity verification requirements.

II. Rescindment of NIH System of Records Notice (SORN) 09-25-0168

    As modified, the department-level SORN 09-90-0067 now includes 
updated descriptions of the same NIH records that are covered in NIH 
SORN 09-25-0168. Accordingly, HHS is rescinding NIH SORN 09-25-0168 as 
duplicative of modified SORN 09-90-0067.

    Dated: January 9, 2020.
Alfred C. Johnson,

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
    15 U.S.C. secs. 3701-3710d, National Technology Transfer and 
Advancement Act; 35 U.S.C. secs. 200-212, Patent Rights in Inventions 
Made with Federal Funding Assistance; 42 U.S.C. secs. 241, 282 and 284, 
the Public Health Service Act; Executive Order (E.O.) 9865, Providing 
for the Protection Abroad of Inventions Resulting from Research 
Financed by the Government; and E.O. 10096, Providing for a Uniform 
Patent Policy for the Government with Respect to Inventions made by 
Government Employees and for the Administration of Such Policy. See 
also 37 CFR parts 401 and 404, and 45 CFR part 7.

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM:
    The records are maintained and used by HHS for these purposes:
    1. To obtain patent protection for inventions reported by Public 
Health Service (PHS) employees, inventors, contractors, and non-profit 
and educational institutions to which title is owned or co-owned by the 
Federal Government.
    2. To grant licenses to patents obtained through the invention 
reports.
    3. To provide royalty payments to the relevant PHS employees, 
inventors, contractors, and non-profit and educational institutions.
    4. To manage all assets of the technology transfer process (i.e., 
marketing, statistics, technology abstracts).
    5. To refer to for information needed during award processing, 
querying, and reporting.
    6. To share relevant information with other HHS offices that manage 
grants, contracts, or personnel associated with the invention, 
including any information needed to investigate matters such as 
possible law, contract, or grant agreement violations and issues 
concerning an individual's or entity's suitability or eligibility for 
federal employment, contracts, grants, licenses, or other federal 
benefits. Records used by other HHS offices for such purposes, if 
retrieved by personal identifier, would be covered under other Systems 
of Records Notices (SORNs); see, for example, OPM/GOVT-3 covering 
Adverse Action Files, 09-90-0020 covering Suitability for Employment 
Records, and 09-90-0100 covering Civil and Administrative Investigative 
Files of the Inspector General.
    7. To provide documentation needed for related financial management 
and debt collection functions, including effecting disbursements of 
royalty awards and payments by the Department of the Treasury 
(Treasury), coordinating with Treasury to recover any improper payments 
or other claims through offsets against federal salary and tax refund 
payments, and reporting royalty payments and uncollectible debt amounts 
to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as income. Records used for 
financial management and debt collection purposes are covered under 
other HHS System of Records Notices (SORNs); see, e.g., HHS SORN Nos. 
09-90-0024 HHS Financial Management System Records and 09-40-0012 Debt 
Management and Collection System for descriptions of purposes for which 
such records are used within HHS and routine uses for which such 
records may be disclosed to the Department of Treasury and other 
parties outside HHS.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    The records are about inventors; i.e., any individual involved in 
the development of an NIH, FDA, or CDC technology who reported an 
invention, applied for a patent, was granted a patent, and/or is 
receiving royalties from a patent to which title is owned or co-owned 
by the Federal Government or by a grantee, fellowship recipient, or 
contractor of the Federal Government. The inventor may be a PHS (or 
other

[[Page 2750]]

HHS) employee, extramural grantee, fellowship recipient, independent 
contractor, or other outside inventor or co-inventor.

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
    The records consist of invention reports, patent prosecution and 
licensing documents (such as patent applications and license 
agreements) and related documents, containing all information necessary 
to be included in such documents, for all individuals who contributed 
to the invention. Applicable data elements may include: Inventor name, 
job title, employing office or organization name and address, contact 
information (mailing and email addresses, phone numbers, and fax 
numbers), HHS employee identification number or other unique 
identifier, inventor's status as a fellow or contract employee, 
educational degree(s), citizenship, title and description of the 
invention, Employee Invention Report (EIR) number, license number (if 
an agreement provides for royalties to be paid by a third party), 
number assigned to submitted invention report, case/serial number, 
prior art related to the invention, evaluation of the commercial 
potential of the invention, prospective licensees' intended development 
of the invention, and royalty payment information.

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:
    Sources of information about inventors contained in these records 
include the subject individual (i.e., inventor); other inventors, co-
inventors, and collaborating persons; grantees, fellowship recipients 
and contractors; other federal agencies; scientific experts from non-
government organizations; contract patent counsel and their employees 
and foreign contract personnel; United States and foreign patent 
offices; prospective licensees; PHS technology development 
coordinators; internet and commercial databases; and third parties who 
PHS contacts to determine individual invention ownership or government 
ownership.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    In addition to other disclosures authorized directly in the Privacy 
Act at 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(4) through (11), information about an inventor 
may be disclosed from this system of records to following parties 
outside of HHS without the individual's prior written consent, for 
these purposes:
    1. HHS may make the inventor's name and other information public, 
when making information about the invention public. For example, HHS 
makes the inventor's name public in the Federal Register and/or on the 
internet when it lists inventions that are available for collaboration 
and/or licensing (i.e., to seek parties interested in licensing the 
invention or in undertaking collaborative research activities to 
further develop, evaluate, or commercialize the invention), and when 
publicizing results of agency research activities. Information made 
public without the inventor's prior, written consent would be limited 
to information that HHS would be required to release to a requester 
under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); meaning, information that 
would not result in a clearly unwarranted invasion of privacy.
    2. Disclosure may be made to a congressional office from the record 
of an individual in response to a written inquiry from the 
congressional office made at the written request of the individual.
    3. A record may be disclosed to the Department of Justice (DOJ) or 
to a court or other tribunal in litigation or other proceedings when: 
(a) HHS, or any component thereof; (b) any HHS employee in his/her 
official capacity; (c) any HHS employee in his/her individual capacity 
where the DOJ (or HHS, where it is authorized to do so) has agreed to 
represent the employee; or (d) the United States Government, is a party 
to the proceeding or has a direct and substantial interest in the 
proceeding and, by careful review, HHS determines that the records are 
both relevant and necessary to the proceeding.
    4. Records may be disclosed to authorized federal agencies, 
programs, or other entities for purposes of program evaluation and 
assessment, including quality assurance or peer review, audit, or 
accreditation activities.
    5. Information may be disclosed to federal agencies and HHS 
contractors, grantees, consultants, or volunteers who have been engaged 
by HHS to assist in accomplishment of an HHS function relating to the 
purposes of this system of records and need to have access to the 
records in order to assist HHS. Any contractor will be required to 
comply with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended.
    6. Information about an inventor may be included in information 
disclosed to an awardee or contractor entity in connection with the 
performance, administration, or evaluation of its contract under the 
conditions of the particular award or contract.
    7. Information about an inventor may be included in contractor past 
performance information disclosed to a federal agency upon request.
    8. As prescribed in HHS regulations, HHS may disclose system 
information to qualified experts not within the definition of HHS 
employees in order to obtain their advice about patent, licensing, and 
other issues involved in the transfer, among agencies, of scientific 
and technical discoveries.
    9. HHS may disclose information from this system of records for the 
purpose of obtaining patent protection for HHS inventions and licenses 
to:
    a. Scientific personnel, both in this agency and other government 
agencies, and in non-governmental organizations such as universities, 
who possess the expertise to understand the invention and evaluate its 
importance as a scientific advance;
    b. Contract patent counsel and their employees and foreign contract 
personnel retained by HHS for patent searching and prosecution in both 
the United States and foreign patent offices;
    c. All other government agencies whom HHS contacts regarding the 
possible use, interest in, or ownership rights in HHS inventions;
    d. Prospective licensees or technology finders who may further make 
the invention available to the public through sale or use;
    e. Parties, such as supervisors of inventors, whom HHS contacts to 
determine ownership rights, and those parties contacting HHS to 
determine the Federal Government's ownership; and,
    f. The United States and foreign patent offices involved in the 
filing of HHS patent applications.
    10. Disclosure may be made to: (a) Potential clinical trial 
participants, consistent with the rules and regulations governing the 
HHS human subjects protections program, when informing the participants 
of an investigator's financial interests that might be relevant for 
their consideration when deciding whether or not to participate in a 
trial (i.e., if the financial interests include interests in an 
invention); and (b) the general public to reveal summary-level 
compensation that government scientists receive, under 15 U.S.C. 3710c, 
on licensed inventions generated during their government work.
    11. HHS may disclose information to the National Archives and 
Records Administration (NARA), General Services Administration (GSA), 
or other relevant federal agencies pursuant to records management 
inspections conducted under the authority of 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
    12. A record may be disclosed to appropriate agencies, entities, 
and

[[Page 2751]]

persons when (1) HHS suspects or has confirmed that there has been a 
breach of the system of records; (2) HHS has determined that as a 
result of the suspected or confirmed breach there is a risk of harm to 
individuals, HHS (including its information systems, programs, and 
operations), the Federal Government, or national security; and (3) the 
disclosure made to such agencies, entities, and persons is reasonably 
necessary to assist in connection with HHS's efforts to respond to the 
suspected or confirmed breach or to prevent, minimize, or remedy such 
harm.
    13. A record may be disclosed to another federal agency or federal 
entity, when HHS determines that information from this system of 
records is reasonably necessary to assist the recipient agency or 
entity in (1) responding to a suspected or confirmed breach or (2) 
preventing, minimizing, or remedying the risk of harm to individuals, 
the recipient agency or entity (including its information systems, 
programs, and operations), the Federal Government, or national 
security, resulting from a suspected or confirmed breach.
    14. Records may be disclosed to the Department of Homeland Security 
(DHS) if captured in an intrusion detection system used by HHS and DHS 
pursuant to a DHS cybersecurity program that monitors internet traffic 
to and from federal government computer networks to prevent a variety 
of types of cybersecurity incidents.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF RECORDS:
    Records are stored in electronic media (including, with prior 
approval, on approved portable/mobile devices such as laptops, tablets, 
PDAs, USB drives, media cards, portable hard drives, Blackberrys, 
Smartphones, CDs, DVDs, and/or other mobile storage devices) and in 
paper form.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF RECORDS:
    Records are retrieved by inventor name or identifying number (for 
example, the NIH Enterprise Directory or NED ID number).

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF RECORDS:
    Currently, all records are retained and disposed of in accordance 
with NIH records disposition schedule N1-443-10-1 and NIH Manual 
Chapter 1743, Keeping and Destroying Records, Appendix 1, item 1100-L, 
which provides for records to be kept for a maximum of thirty years. In 
the event that separate disposition schedules are required for records 
managed by FDA and CDC in FY 2017 or later, HHS will submit disposition 
schedules for approval by the National Archives and Records 
Administration (NARA) to cover those records.

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
    Measures to prevent unauthorized disclosures are implemented as 
appropriate for each location or form of storage and for the types of 
records maintained. Safeguards conform to the HHS Information Security 
and Privacy Program, https://www.hhs.gov/ocio/securityprivacy/. Site(s) 
implement personnel and procedural safeguards such as the following:
     Authorized Users: Access is strictly limited to authorized 
personnel whose official duties require such access (i.e., valid, 
business need to know).
     Administrative Safeguards: Controls to ensure proper 
protection of information and information technology systems include, 
but are not limited to, the completion of a Security Assessment and 
Authorization (SA&A) package and a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) and 
mandatory completion of annual Information Security and Privacy 
Awareness training. The SA&A package consists of a Security 
Categorization, e-Authentication Risk Assessment, System Security Plan, 
evidence of Security Control Testing, Plan of Action and Milestones (if 
applicable), Contingency Plan, and evidence of Contingency Plan 
Testing. When the design, development, or operation of a system of 
records is performed by a contractor to accomplish an agency function, 
the applicable Privacy Act Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses 
are inserted in solicitations and contracts.
     Technical Safeguards: Controls that are generally executed 
by the computer system and are employed to minimize the possibility of 
unauthorized access, use, or dissemination of the data in the system 
include, but are not limited to, user identification, password 
protection, firewalls, virtual private network, encryption, intrusion 
detection system, common access cards, smart cards, biometrics and 
public key infrastructure.
     Physical Safeguards: Controls to secure the data and 
protect paper and electronic records, buildings, and related 
infrastructure against threats associated with their physical 
environment include, but are not limited to, the use of the HHS 
Employee ID and/or badge number and key cards, security guards, cipher 
locks, biometrics and closed-circuit TV. Paper records are secured in 
locked file cabinets, offices and facilities. Electronic media are kept 
on secure servers or computer systems. Records are stored in a 
dedicated file room or in locking file cabinets in file folders. During 
normal business hours, assigned agency personnel, including Records 
Management staff and on-site contractor personnel, regulate 
availability of the files. During evening and weekend hours the offices 
are locked.

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
    An individual who wishes to access a record about him or her in 
this system of records must submit a written request to the relevant 
System Manager, reasonably specify the record sought, and include (a) 
the inventor's full name and address, (b) the approximate date(s) the 
information was submitted, (c) the type(s) of information collected, 
and (d) the office(s) or official(s) responsible for the collection of 
information. In addition, the requester must verify his or her identity 
by providing either a notarization of the request or a written 
certification that the requester is who he or she claims to be and 
understands that the knowing and willful request of a record pertaining 
to an individual under false pretenses is a criminal offense under the 
Privacy Act, subject to a fine of up to five thousand dollars. 
Individuals may also request an accounting of disclosures that have 
been made of any records about them.

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES:
    Records that contain factually incorrect information may be 
contested. To contest information in a record about you, write to the 
relevant System Manager; provide the same information described under 
``Record Access Procedures,'' including identity verification 
information; and specify the information which is contested, the 
corrective action sought, and the reason(s) for requesting the 
correction, along with supporting information. The right to contest 
records is limited to information which is factually inaccurate, 
incomplete, irrelevant, or untimely (obsolete).

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES:
    An individual who wishes to know if this system of records contains 
a record about him or her must write to the relevant System Manager and 
provide the same information described under ``Record Access 
Procedures,'' including identity verification information.

EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE SYSTEM:
    None.
