[Docket ID: DoD-2022-OS-0138]


Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION: Notice of a new system of records.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is 
establishing a new Department-wide system of records titled, ``Declared 
Public Health Emergency Exposure Records,'' DoD-0013. This system of 
records covers DoD's maintenance of records about individuals 
necessitated by a declared public health emergency (DPHE) by an 
appropriate official, including the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services pursuant to the Public Health Services Act, a DoD official, or 
other authorized state, local, or other governmental public health 
official pursuant to applicable law. These records are maintained to 
assist the DoD in establishing safe environments, identifying and 
protecting DoD-affiliated individuals at risk of transmission of or 
contracting the disease or agent at issue, and in supporting mission 
readiness. Additionally, the DoD is issuing a direct final rule, which 
is exempting this system of records from certain provisions of the 
Privacy Act, elsewhere in today's issue of the Federal Register.

DATES: This system of records is effective upon publication; however, 
comments on the Routine Uses will be accepted on or before January 17, 
2023. The Routine Uses are effective at the close of the comment 
period.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    DoD is establishing the Declared Public Health Emergency Exposure 
Records, DoD-0013 as a DoD-wide Privacy Act system of records. A DoD-
wide system of records notice (SORN) supports multiple DoD paper or 
electronic recordkeeping systems operated by more than one DoD 
component that maintain the same kind of information about individuals 
for the same purpose. The establishment of DoD-wide SORNs helps DoD 
standardize the rules governing the collection, maintenance, use, and 
sharing of personal information in key areas across the enterprise. 
DoD-wide SORNs also reduce duplicative and overlapping SORNs published 
by separate DoD components. The creation of DoD-wide SORNs is expected 
to make locating relevant SORNs easier for DoD personnel and the 
public, and create efficiencies in the operation of the DoD privacy 
program.
    DoD prioritizes the safety of its workforce to ensure Department's 
missions are able to be accomplished successfully at all times in 
defense of the Nation. To do that, DoD must maintain operationally 
ready capabilities, including operating within degraded environments 
such as during a DPHE. Public health emergencies are varied; they may 
be broad or limited in geographical scope and may be declared by 
various authorities such as the Secretary of Health and Human Services 
or the responsible, designated State, local, tribal, or territorial 
official, or cognizant military commander. Responses to public health 
emergencies depend on the nature of the emergency, but in some cases 
the degraded environment created by the public health emergency may 
require the DoD to collect personal information to ensure a safe and 
secure workplace for employees and visitors to DoD facilities, and 
ultimately, to ensure DoD is able to continue to carry out its mission.
    DoD Instruction 6200.03, ``Public Health Emergency Management 
within the DoD,'' establishes DoD policy for DPHE. This includes the 
authority and responsibilities of DoD commanders and other officials 
during a DPHE, and various activities that may be required to address 
the emergency. For example, paragraph 3.1.d(1) provides that DoD

[[Page 77082]]

may need to initiate actions to collect and analyze data on the health 
hazard causing the DPHE, and paragraph 3.1.d(3) provides that DoD may 
need to act to ensure identification, interview, and tracking of all 
individuals or groups suspected to have been exposed to the health 
hazard to characterize the source and spread of the health hazard. In 
carrying out these and other activities, DoD may collect and maintain 
information about individuals that is subject to the Privacy Act and 
therefore requires a SORN, but is not already covered by other DoD 
SORNs. Examples of the types of data in records that may be uniquely 
covered by this SORN include contact tracing data, which is the 
identification and contact information of individuals suspected or 
confirmed to have contracted a disease or illness, or exposed to an 
individual suspected or confirmed to have contracted a disease or 
illness, related to a DPHE; individual circumstances and dates of 
suspected exposure; and health status information. The data may also 
include information about individuals exposed to a public health threat 
other than a communicable disease such as a radiological exposure or 
the release of a toxin or chemical agents, related to a DPHE. This 
system of records also supports the sharing of information that may 
need to occur during a DPHE, such as sharing of exposure information 
about individuals with public health authorities to support public 
health goals, such as contact tracing and the reduction of the spread 
of a health hazard.
    The information covered by this system of records is separate and 
unique from other DoD systems of records which contain records 
maintained by DoD for accountability and assessment of DoD-affiliated 
personnel, or created during the normal course of DoD's delivery of 
occupational health and safety services, which DoD provides routinely 
to members of the military and DoD civilians, and sometimes to DoD 
visitors, concessionaires, and contractors. These records are covered 
by other SORNs, and are specifically identified in the notice below for 
clarity.
    DoD maintains this information to ensure mission success through 
the appropriate management and response to the public health emergency, 
and to reduce the risk of disease or illness among DoD military and 
civilian personnel, contractors, concessionaires, and visitors to DoD 
facilities. The collection and use of records covered by this system of 
records is only permitted during times of a declared public health 
emergency.
    Finally, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 
1996 (HIPAA) Rules, as amended by the Omnibus Final Rule, include the 
HIPAA Privacy Rule, the HIPAA Breach Rule, the HIPAA Security Rule, and 
the HIPAA Enforcement (Parts 160 and 164 of Title 45 CFR), permit a DoD 
covered entity to use or disclose protected health information for 
public health activities as noted in DoD Manual 6025.18. Under HIPAA, 
``public health authority'' means an agency or authority of the United 
States, a State, a territory, a political subdivision of a State or 
territory, or an Indian tribe, or a person or entity acting under a 
grant of authority from or contract with such public agency, including 
the employees or agents of such public agency or its contractors or 
persons or entities to whom it has granted authority, that is 
responsible for public health matters as part of its official mandate. 
45 CFR 164.501 (definition of ``public health authority''). The HIPAA 
Rules only apply if the entity or individual that is disclosing 
protected health information meets the definition of a HIPAA covered 
entity or business associate. The records covered under this SORN are 
not subject to the HIPAA Rules.
    Additionally, the DoD is issuing a direct final rule to exempt this 
system of records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act elsewhere 
in today's issue of the Federal Register. DoD SORNs have been published 
in the Federal Register and are available from the address in FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or at the Defense Privacy, Civil Liberties, 
and Freedom of Information Directorate website at https://dpcld.defense.gov.

II. Privacy Act

    Under the Privacy Act, a ``system of records'' is a group of 
records under the control of an agency from which information is 
retrieved by the name of an individual or by some identifying number, 
symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual. In 
the Privacy Act, an individual is defined as a U.S. citizen or lawful 
permanent resident.
    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) and Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, DoD has provided a report of this

    Note 2:  A declared public health emergency may be limited or 
broad in geographic scope, and could affect one, many, or all DoD 
installations and facilities. This system of records may support 
worldwide DoD public health emergency activities in the case of a 
pandemic, or local or regional DoD activities in the case of a 
geographically limited public health emergency.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    DoD military Service members (Active Duty, Guard/Reserve, and Coast 
Guard personnel when acting as a military service with the Navy), 
civilian personnel (including non-appropriated fund employees), DoD 
spouses/dependents and cohabitants, military retirees, and DoD 
contractors. Also, personnel of partner organizations, visitors, 
eligible patrons, or concessionaires accessing or sharing DoD 
facilities or attending DoD-sponsored events, and individuals residing 
in military housing during a declared public health emergency, 
including a pandemic.

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:

    Note 3:  Excluded from this system of records are employee 
occupational medical records covered by the U.S. Office of Personnel 
Management (OPM) regulation at 5 CFR part 293, subpart E, Employee 
Medical File System Records. The regulation requires agencies that 
are subject to OPM's recordkeeping requirements to maintain employee 
occupational medical records in the agency's Employee Medical File 
System. Such records are covered exclusively by the OPM/GOVT-10, 
Employee Medical File System of Records.


    Note 4:  Excluded from this system of records are DoD 
accountability and assessment records as described in DoD-0012, 
Defense Accountability and Assessment Records SORN. Records in DoD-
0012 are collected and used to account for DoD-affiliated personnel 
in a natural or man-made disaster, during a public health emergency, 
or when directed by the Secretary of Defense. During a declared 
public health emergency, DoD may collect and maintain records under 
both the DoD-0012 SORN to support DoD accountability and assessment 
for DoD-affiliated individuals, and this SORN to support contract 
tracing and other authorized public health objectives necessitated 
by the declared public health emergency.

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES:
    Records and information stored in this system of records are 
obtained from:

[[Page 77084]]

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
    DoD safeguards records in this system of records according to 
applicable rules,

[[Page 77085]]

policies, and procedures, including all applicable DoD automated 
systems security and access policies. DoD policies require the use of 
controls to minimize the risk of compromise of personally identifiable 
information (PII) in paper and electronic form and to enforce access by 
those with a need to know and with appropriate clearances. 
Additionally, DoD has established security audit and accountability 
policies and procedures which support the safeguarding of PII and 
detection of potential PII incidents. DoD routinely employs safeguards 
such as the following to information systems and paper recordkeeping 
systems: Multifactor log-in authentication including Common Access Card 
(CAC) authentication and password; physical token as required; physical 
and technological access controls governing access to data; network 
encryption to protect data transmitted over the network; disk 
encryption securing disks storing data; key management services to 
safeguard encryption keys; masking of sensitive data as practicable; 
mandatory information assurance and privacy training for individuals 
who will have access; identification, marking, and safeguarding of PII; 
physical access safeguards including multifactor identification 
physical access controls, detection and electronic alert systems for 
access to servers and other network infrastructure; and electronic 
intrusion detection systems in DoD facilities.
    Personal information maintained will be the minimum necessary and 
only used for the purposes stated in this notice. Such information will 
be retained for the minimum amount of time, remain accessible only to 
personnel with a valid operational need, and only be used for the 
public health emergency and no other purposes. These records may be 
provided in aggregate for accountability and mission readiness 
purposes, as long as the information may not be easily re-identified.

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:
    Individuals seeking access to their records should follow the 
procedures in 32 CFR part 310. Individuals should address written 
inquiries to the DoD component with oversight of the records, as the
