OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice of modified systems of records.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) is modifying the systems of records listed 
in this notice to incorporate two routine uses related to breach of 
personally identifiable information (PII) pursuant to the Office of 
Management and Budget's Memorandum 17-12. The first routine use deals 
with the breach of an agency's own records, and the second addresses 
the disclosure of agency records to assist other agencies in their 
efforts to respond to a breach of their own records. The new routine 
use that addresses breaches of an agency's own records replaces the one 
OPM previously published November 30, 2015 at 80 FR 74815.

DATES: Please submit comments on or before March 4, 2022. These new 
routine uses are effective March 9, 2022.

ADDRESSES: You may submit written comments by one of the following 
methods:

Federal Rulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov

    All submissions received must include the agency name and docket 
number for this Federal Register document. The general policy for 
comments and other submissions from members of the public is to make 
these submissions available for public viewing on the internet at 
http://www.regulations.gov, as they are received, without change, 
including any personal identifiers or contact information. Email: 
[email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marc Flaster, Senior Advisor to the 
Chief Privacy Officer, 202-606-2115.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 30, 2015, the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) published a routine use for all of its 
systems of records to permit disclosing information when necessary to 
respond to breaches of OPM's own records. Subsequently, on January 3, 
2017, the Office of Management and Budget published Memorandum 17-12, 
Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable 
Information, which established two model routine uses, one on 
disclosure of information related to breaches of an

[[Page 5875]]

agency's own records, similar to what OPM published in 2015, and the 
second concerning the disclosure of agency records to assist other 
agencies in their efforts to respond to a breach. The latter would 
facilitate providing agencies with information to locate and contact 
individuals potentially affected by a breach, or provide information 
related to the agency's programs. OPM is now modifying all of the 
systems of records identified in this Notice to include the two routine 
uses set forth in OMB M 17-12 and rescinding the routine use published 
in 2015.
