         Consumer Complaint and Inquiry Information System (CCIS)--
    Treasury/Comptroller.
         Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, 250 E Street, SW, 
    Washington, DC 20219. Components of the CCIS are geographically 
    dispersed through- out six (6) district offices. (See addresses listed 
    in Appendix of OCC District Offices.)
         Persons who file complaints against banks either directly or 
    through second parties, e.g. attorneys, Congressional representatives 
    or others who make inquiries about banks or banking issues.
         The records are maintained in three general categories: 
    Correspondence; computer tapes; and hard copies of computer generated 
    reports. Data contained in these records are: The name and address of 
    the writer or their representative; the name and charter number of 
    bank; the date of incoming letter; the date letter received by the OCC; 
    numerical codes identifying the nature of the complaint, the source of 
    the complaint, and the type of resolution; identification of the 
    district and the person assigned to examine the complaint; the 
    resolution date; and, if appropriate, the amount of reimbursement.
         12 U.S.C. 1, et.seq., 5 U.S.C. 301, 15 U.S.C. 41 et.seq.
         Hard copy computerized reports are used to monitor the system, 
    provide data for the Annual Report to Congress and inquiries from other 
    agencies, public and private. Redacted copies of the files may be used 
    in response to Congressional inquiries on specific subjects.
         Records in active use are stored in file cabinets in the 
    processing offices. Resolved complaints and inquiries are stored in the 
    office having primary responsibility for the bank, generally the field 
    office. Complaints regarding banks with over one billion dollars in 
    assets are stored in the appropriate district office. Complaints which 
    appeal the district office's resolution and complaints and inquiries 
    received from Congressional sources are stored in Central Files in the 
    Washington Office or in the Congressional Liaison office. Active 
    computer tapes are secured in the Information Systems and Technology 
    Division and the computerized reports are stored in file cabinets.
         Correspondence records are retrieved from the appropriate office 
    using the bank and complainant's or Congressman's or Senator's name. 
    Other records are retrieved using the complainant's or inquirer's name 
    or the identification number assigned to the correspondence.
         Access to locations where active complaint and inquiry files are 
    located is controlled. Computer tapes are also located in a controlled 
    access location. Inactive files are located in locked file rooms.
         (a) Consumer complaint correspondence generating administrative 
    action is part of the permanent bank record set that is retained at OCC 
    for three calendar years, then transferred to Washington National 
    Records Center (WNRC) and offered to National Archives and Records 
    Administration when 30 years old. (b) Consumer complaints and inquiries 
    of a routine nature are held for two years, then may be transferred to 
    WNRC, and destroyed when five years old. (c) Computer tapes and one 
    record copy of reports are retained in OCC for three years, then 
    transferred to WNRC, and offered to NARA when 20 years old.

    [[Page 56690]]
    
         The Chain Banking Organizations System consists of word processing 
    and microprocessing programs which perform editing, updating and 
    reporting functions on two types of data: (1) Name of an individual (or 
    group of individuals acting in concert) that owns or controls a chain 
    banking organization and (2) information concerning individual chain 
    banks, such as; name, location, charter number, charter type, date of 
    last examination, percentage of outstanding stock owned by controlling 
    individual or group and, if applicable, name of intermediate holding 
    entity and percentage of it held by controlling individual or group.
         12 U.S.C. 1, 12 U.S.C. 481, 12 U.S.C. 1817(j).
         The System may be used to: (1) Disclose information about specific 
    chain banking organizations to other financial institution supervisory 
    authorities for: (a) Coordination of examining resources when the chain 
    banking organization is composed of banks or financial institutions 
    subject to multiple supervisory jurisdiction; (b) coordination of 
    evaluations and analysis of the condition of the consolidated chain 
    group; (c) coordination of supervisory, corrective or enforcement 
    actions. (2) Disclose information to the extent provided by law or 
    regulation and as necessary to report any apparent violations of law to 
    appropriate law enforcement agencies. (3) Disclose pertinent 
    information to appropriate Federal, State, local or foreign agencies 
    responsible for investigating or prosecuting the violations of, or for 
    enforcing or implementing, a statute, rule, regulation, order, or 
    license, where the disclosing agency becomes aware of an indication of 
    a violation or potential violation of civil or criminal law or 
    regulation. (4) Disclose information to a Federal, State, or local 
    agency, maintaining civil, criminal or other relevant enforcement 
    information or other pertinent information, which has requested 
    information relevant to or necessary to the requesting agency's or the 
    bureau's hiring or retention of an individual, or issuance of a 
    security clearance, license, contract, grant, or other benefit. (5) 
    Disclose information to a court, magistrate, or administrative tribunal 
    in the course of presenting evidence, including disclosures to opposing 
    counsel or witnesses in the course of civil discovery, litigation, or 
    settlement negotiations, in response to a subpoena, or in connection 
    with criminal law proceedings. (6) Provide information to a 
    congressional office in response to an inquiry made at the request of 
    the individual to whom the record pertains.
         These records are maintained in a computer data base and on 
    computer floppy disks or hard copy printouts stored in file cabinets.
         All retrievable records are indexed by district location, state, 
    alphabetically by surname of the individual(s) and/or entity 
    controlling the chain banking organization.
         Access to records in electronic storage systems is restricted by 
    user identification procedures and passwords which limit access to 
    authorized employees of the Office. Computer disks and hard copy 
    printouts will be stored in locked file cabinets when the Office is 
    vacant.
         Records are generally maintained in electronic storage disks in an 
    off-line capacity until needed. Certain records are archived in off-
    line storage. All records, including those in printout form, are 
    periodically updated to reflect changes and maintained as long as 
    needed.
