Part 1: Deletions of Five Systems of Records

As a result of this review, the Postal Service has determined that it no longer maintains records covered by five of its systems. Therefore, the following systems of records are being deleted from the Postal Service's inventory of Privacy Act systems: (1) 040.040, Customer Programs--Customer Holiday Address List File; (2) 100.020, Office Administration--Commercial Accounts Communicator Letter; (3) 130.010, Philately--Ben Franklin Stamp Club Coordinators and Project Leaders List; (4) 130.020, Philately--Educators Stamp Fun Mailing Lists; and (5) 130.050, Philately--United States Postal Service Olympic Pen Pal Club.

Part 2: Advance Notice of New Routine Uses and Altered Systems

Reports of new routine uses and new and altered systems (except for those minor changes not required to be reported that are identified in paragraph 2.B.1 below), as required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), have been submitted to OMB and Congress pursuant to paragraph 4.c.(1)(f) of Appendix I of OMB Circular A-130, ``Federal Agency Responsibilities for Maintaining Records About Individuals,'' dated February 20, 1996.

  1. New Routine Uses

    Routine uses are added to two systems of records, USPS 120.060 and USPS 120.061. Records in these systems are collected to meet the financial reporting requirements imposed by the Ethics in Government Act of 1978. Proposed routine use no. 3 in 120.060 and proposed routine use no. 4 in 120.061 are identical and correspond to routine uses made applicable to the two government-wide systems for financial disclosure records that are managed by the Office of Government Ethics: OGE/

    [[Page 8877]]

    GOVT-1 and OGE/GOVT-2. Routine use no. 5 in 120.061 is adopted as a result of the ethics legislation (the Ethics Reform Act of 1989, Pub. L. 101-194) that makes certain waiver determinations publicly available. The added routine uses represent long-standing uses that would be obvious and necessary to accomplish the purpose for which the systems are maintained and, in some instances, indicate the public availability required by law.

    Two routine uses are added to USPS 010.010, which contains address change and mail forwarding records. Proposed routine uses numbers 7 and 8 correspond, respectively, to postal regulations that authorize disclosure of change of address information when needed in connection with jury service and when authorized in connection with the Postal Service's address correction service that is available to mailers upon request. Both routine uses are being added to bring the system notice into conformity with regulations of long-standing.

  2. Altered Systems

    Following are systems changes to categories of records, categories of individuals, authority, and routine uses and other changes to those systems descriptions that are minor in nature:

    1. USPS 010.010--On December 29, 1994, the Postal Service published in the Federal Register (59 FR 67223) a final rule which substantially changed its address disclosure regulations governing disclosure of individuals' address change filings covered by system of records USPS 010.010. The rule prohibits disclosure of change of address information pertaining to individuals or families to anyone except government agency requesters, persons legally empowered to serve legal process, and when necessary to comply with a court order. The categories of records in the system and the routine uses are amended to conform with the rule.

    2. USPS 050.020 was established to maintain information that relates to an employee's pay. The description of the categories of individuals is expanded to include beneficiaries of former employees who qualify for annuity protection program life insurance benefits. Editorial changes also have been made to other sections of the system description.

    3. USPS 120.152--This document proposes to expand the types of records covered by this system by including information collected about employees who use Postal Service housing facilities when enrolled in training. A room discrepancy report is completed on each occupied room for reasons such as evidence of smoking, damages, missing items, unregistered person(s), etc. Because repeated offenses could result in action against the student, comments regarding each incident are documented. These comments are maintained and may be retrieved by the student's name. The categories of records section of USPS 120.152 is revised to include information collected about a students on the room discrepancy report. A change to the categories of records in the system and an editorial change to the system manager(s) and address sections of the system USPS 120.152 follow.

    Part 3: Editorial Corrections/Revisions

    The remaining revisions to the systems of records notices are editorial in nature, and do not affect the character or use of information contained in the systems. Most revisions reflect organization name changes due to agency restructuring. Other revisions improve, without expansion, the systems notices. Changes to routine use K in the Prefatory Statement and editorial revisions to other systems of records were made. The systems of records are amended by making the following additions and changes:

    Prefatory Statement of Routine Uses:

Personal data in the system may include fingerprints, handwriting samples, reports of confidential informants, physical identifying data, voiceprints, polygraph tests, photographs, and individual personnel and payroll information.
