Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
AGENCY: Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, Interior.
ACTION: Rescindment of a system of records notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Safety and
Environmental Enforcement is issuing a public notice of its intent to
rescind the Privacy Act system of records notice, INTERIOR/MMS-12,
Lessee/Operator Training Files from its existing inventory. The Lessee/
Operator Training Files system of records was managed by the former
Minerals Management Service in accordance with the Well Control and
Production Safety Training regulation. Under this regulation, the
Minerals Management Service accredited institutions to train lessee and
operator personnel and to certify that they were competent and safe to
work on the Outer Continental Shelf. Revisions to the regulation in
October 2000 eliminated requirements for the Minerals Management
Service to accredit institutions and for those institutions to provide
copies of training certificates on individuals to the Minerals
Management Service. The materials associated with these eliminated
requirements were the subject matter of the relevant system of records.
Subsequently, upon the dissolution of the Minerals Management Service,
the responsibility for this system of records was transferred to the
Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, which is now formally
rescinding the INTERIOR/MMS-12, Lessee/Operator Training Files system
of records notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The former Minerals Management Service (MMS)
described the requirements for lessees and operators to train their
personnel in 30 Code of Federal Regulations Part 250, Subpart O, Well
Control and Production Safety Training. This regulation assigned
responsibility to MMS for oversight of training for well control and
production safety systems, and oversight of MMS accredited institutions
to train and certify lessee and operator personnel to work competently
and safely on the Outer Continental Shelf. Training organizations were
required to provide copies of training certificates, which included the
individual's full name, Social Security number, and training completion
date, among other categories of records, which were maintained under
Privacy Act system of records notice (SORN), INTERIOR/MMS-12, Lessee/
Operator Training Files.
In October 2000, the regulation was amended to reassign
responsibilities for overseeing well control and production safety
training to lessees and operators. When the regulation went into
effect, the records associated with the regulation no longer met the
Privacy Act standard for a system of records and eliminated the need
for the SORN. The records covered by this SORN were disposed of in
accordance with the prevailing records retention schedule.
In May 2010, Secretary's Order 3299 directed the division of MMS
into three independent entities with separate and clearly defined
missions: The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE),
the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and the Office of Natural
Resources Revenue. Responsibilities for this system of records notice
transferred to BSEE. Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement is
formally rescinding the INTERIOR/MMS-12, Lessee/Operator Training Files
system of records notice from its system of records inventory.
Rescinding the INTERIOR/MMS-12, Lessee/Operator Training Files system
of records notice will have no adverse impacts on individuals as the
records were disposed of in accordance with the records retention
schedule. This rescindment will also promote the overall streamlining
and management of Department of the Interior Privacy Act systems of
records.
