SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Loan Review System (LRS) is a system 
developed by HUD for managing and overseeing HUD loans. This system 
plays a critical role in supporting HUD's mission of creating strong, 
sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for 
all. It helps ensure that the funds allocated for these purposes are 
used effectively and responsibly. Its key functions include 
streamlining the loan review process, risk management, data management 
and analysis, compliance monitoring, and reporting. The system is 
designed to be user-friendly and integrates with other HUD systems, 
ensuring that loans comply with HUD regulations and supporting HUD's 
mission to provide quality affordable homes and sustainable 
communities. The retrieval practice was evaluated, and it was 
determined that records within the system are not retrieved by an 
individual's personal unique identifier that qualifies for as SORN 
under the Privacy Act. The Department's Federal Housing Administration 
(FHA) Case Number or Loan Review ID Number retrieval does not 
constitute a retrieval for the purpose of the Privacy Act. Records 
retrieved by FHA-approved lending institutions will continue to be 
maintained by LRS.

SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
    Loan Review System (LRS).

HISTORY:
    The previously published notice in the Federal Register [Docket 
Number 6009-N-01], on June 6, 2017, 82 FR 26705.
