DOCUMENT SUMMARY:
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is issuing public notice of its intent to alter its system of records maintained in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as amended, entitled ``USAID 029Deployment Tracking System,'' originally published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, March 3, 2009 (74 FR 40).
SUMMARY:
Privacy Act; Systems of Records
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
USAID is proposing to alter its system of records pursuant to the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a), entitled the Deployment Tracking System (DTS). This system was established to support USAID's responsibilities as part of an interagency effort led by the Department of State, known as the Civilian Response Corps (CRC). In order to participate as a partner agency, USAID must have mechanisms in place to identify, assign or employ personnel with appropriate skill sets and have the ability to mobilize these resources rapidly in response to stabilization crisis.
USAID is proposing to alter its ``Deployment Tracking System
Records'' to increase the categories of records contained within the system of records.
[[Page 39615]]
This expansion is needed in order to fully participate with the other
partner agencies and meet the data collection requirements of the CRC.
USAID proposes to add the following categories of records: Citizenship,
military service information, social security number, medical clearance
information and security clearance information. This information is
required by the CRC to help determine which individuals are appropriate
for each mission, assist in coordinating visas, registering individuals
on military flights, ensuring individuals are properly cleared for
deployment and determining if an individual has the appropriate clearances to attend briefings.
Philip M. Heneghan,
Chief Privacy Officer.
