FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
[FR ID: 17545]
Privacy Act of 1974; System of
Records
AGENCY
: Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION
: Notice of a modified system of
records.
SUMMARY
: The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC, Commission, or
Agency) has modified an existing
system of records, FCC/OMD–2, Labor
Relations and Employee Performance
Files, subject to the Privacy Act of 1974,
as amended. This action is necessary to
meet the requirements of the Privacy
Act to publish in the Federal Register
notice of the existence and character of
records maintained by the Agency. The
records in this system contain
information on Commission employees
that the Human Resources Management
(HRM) in the Office of Managing
Director (OMD) uses for purposes such
as litigation, law enforcement,
congressional inquiries, labor
organization inquiries, and government-
wide program oversight.
DATES
: This system of records will
become effective on March 12, 2021.
Written comments on the routine uses
are due by April 12, 2021. The routine
uses will become effective on April 12,
2021, unless written comments are
received that require a contrary
determination.
ADDRESSES
: Send comments to Margaret
Drake, at privacy@fcc.gov, or at Federal
Communications Commission (FCC), 45
L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554 at
(202) 418–1707.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
:
Margaret Drake, (202) 418–1707, or
privacy@fcc.gov (and to obtain a copy of
the Narrative Statement and the
Supplementary Document, which
includes details of the modifications to
this system of records).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: FCC/
OMB–2 contains information on
Commission employees that the Human
Resources Management (HRM) in the
Office of Managing Director (OMD) uses
for purposes such as litigation, law
enforcement, congressional inquiries,
labor organization inquiries, and
government-wide program oversight.
This notice serves to modify FCC/OMB–
2 to reflect various necessary changes
and updates, including format changes
required by OMB Circular A–108 since
its previous publication and the
addition of two routine uses to address
data breaches, as required by OMB
Memorandum M–17–12. The
substantive changes and modification to
the previously published version of
FCC/OMB–2 system of records include:
1. Updating the Security
Classification to follow OMB and FCC
guidance.
2. Updating the System Location to
show the FCC’s new headquarters
address.
3. Modifying the Categories of
Records to add employee grievances to
the list that currently includes only
employee responses or appeals.
4. Adding the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to the
record sources for this system when an
underlying action (e.g., suspension) is
challenged before the EEOC, the EEO-
related records may also be subject to
the governmentwide EEOC SORN.
5. Revising language in four Routine
Uses: (1) Adjudication and Litigation,
(2) Law Enforcement and Investigation,
(3) Congressional Inquiries, and (4)
Government-wide Program Management
and Oversight.
6. Deleting three existing Routine
Uses: (5) Employment, Clearances,
Licensing, Contract, Grant, or other
Benefits Decisions by the agency, (6)
Employment, Clearances, Licensing,
Contract, Grant, or other Benefits
Decisions by other than the agency, and
(7) Labor Relations.
7. Adding four new Routine Uses: (5)
Breach Notification, to allow the FCC
address information breaches at the
Commission; (6) Assistance to Federal
Agencies and Entities, to allow the FCC
to provide assistance to other Federal
agencies in their data breach situations;
(7) For Non-Federal Personnel, to allow
contractors performing or working on a
contract for the Federal Government
access to information in this system;
and (8) Non-FCC Individuals and
Organizations, to disclose information
to individuals, including former FCC
employees, and organizations, to obtain
information pertinent to an
investigation or proceeding. New
Routine Uses (5) and (6) are required by
OMB Memorandum M–17–12.
8. Replacing the Disclosures to
Consumer Reporting section with a new
Reporting to a Consumer Reporting
Agency section to address valid and
overdue debts owed by individuals to
the FCC under the Debt Collection Act,
as recommended by OMB.
9. Modifying the Policies and
Practices for Retrieval of Records to add
the employee name as a retrieval metric
and, when applicable, examining case
logs will disclose an employee’s name
associated with a case number.
10. Updating the Records Retention
and Disposal section with a new
National Archives and Records (NARA)
General Records Schedule (GRS) 2.3
(DAA–GRS–2018–0002).
10. Adding a History section
referencing the previous publication of
this SORN in the Federal Register, as
required by OMB Circular A–108.
The system of records is also updated
to reflect various administrative changes
related to the policy and practices for
storage of the information;
administrative, technical, and physical
safeguards; and updated notification,
records access, and procedures to
contest records.
