OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
Privacy Act of 1974; Notification of a New System of Records
AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
ACTION: Add one new record system.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: OPM proposes to add one new system of records to its inventory
of record systems 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 record systems maintained by the agency.
DATES: OPM invites comments on the proposed system of records on or
before January 13, 1995. The system notice will be effective January
23, 1995 unless OPM has received comments that would result in a
contrary determination.
ADDRESSES: Send written comments to Steve Van Rees, Chief, Facilities
Services Division, Office of Procurement and Administrative Services,
Administrative Group, 1900 E Street NW., room 1330, Washington, DC
20415-0001.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms. Leslie Crawford at (703) 908-8565.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is being published under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4). OPM's Internal and Central system
notices were previously published in the Federal Register in full on
April 12, 1993 (58 FR 19154). OPM's Governmentwide system notices were
last published in full on August 10, 1992 (57 FR 35698), with a
correction published on November 30, 1992 (57 FR 56733).
The authority for maintaining parking records is derived from the
Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended,
and 5 U.S.C. 301. OPM manages its parking facilities through a system
designed to encourage the use of carpools. OPM personnel who
participate in the program fill out an application for a parking permit
that contains personal information. The applications and information
from the application forms are maintained in both automated and paper
format, with records retrievable by use of personal identifiers.
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), OPM has sent a Report of a New
System of Records to the Congress and the Office of Management and
Budget.

Administrative Services, Administrative Group, Office of Personnel
Management, 1900 E Street, NW., Washington, DC 20415-0001.
Current OPM employees and others who use OPM parking facilities.
This system contains records relating to the administration of the
parking permit system for OPM's central office at the Theodore
Roosevelt Office Building, 1900 E Street, NW., Washington, DC. The
records include information such as name; Social Security Number;
employing organization; assigned permit number; home and office
telephone numbers; home address; vehicle information; and duty hours
and location.
Includes the following with any revisions or amendments:
Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as
amended, and 5 U.S.C. 301.
These records are used to administer the parking program at OPM,
collect information for tax purposes, and compare records with other
Federal agencies to ensure parking privileges are not abused. These
records may also may be used to locate individuals for personal
research.
These records and information in these records may be used:
a. To disclose pertinent information to the appropriate Federal,
State, or local agency responsible for investigating, prosecuting,
enforcing, or implementing a statute, rule, regulation, or order, where
OPM becomes aware of an indication of a violation or potential
violation of civil or criminal law or regulation.
b. To provide information to a congressional office from the record
of an individual in response to an inquiry from that congressional
office made at the request of that individual.
c. To disclose information to another Federal agency, to a court,
or a party in litigation before a court or in an administrative
proceeding being conducted by a Federal agency, when the Government is
a party to the judicial or administrative proceeding. In those cases
where the Government is not a party to the proceeding, records may be
disclosed if a subpoena has been signed by a judge.
d. By the National Archives and Records Administration in records
management inspections.
e. By OPM in the production of summary descriptive statistics and
analytical studies in support of the function for which the records are
collected and maintained, or for related work force studies. While
published studies do not contain individual identifiers, in some
instances the selection of elements of data included in the study may
be structured in such a way as to make the data individually
identifiable by inference.
f. To disclose information to the Department of Justice, or in a
proceeding before a court, adjudicative body, or other administrative
body before which OPM is authorized to appear, when:
(1) OPM, or any component thereof; or
(2) Any employee of OPM in his or her official capacity; or
(3) Any employee of OPM in his or her individual capacity where the
Department of Justice or OPM has agreed to represent the employee; or
(4) The United States, when OPM determines that litigation is
likely to affect OPM or any of its components;
is a party to litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and the
use of such records by the Department of Justice or OPM is deemed by
OPM to be relevant and necessary to the litigation provided, however,
that the disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which records
were collected.
g. To disclose information to contractors, grantees, or volunteers
performing or working on a contract, service, grant, cooperative
agreement, or job for the Federal Government.
h. To disclose information to the Internal Revenue Service and
State and local tax authorities.
i. To disclose information to officials of labor organizations
recognized under 5 U.S.C. Chapter 71 when relevant and necessary to
their duties of exclusive representation concerning personnel policies,
practices, and matters affecting working conditions.
j. To disclose information in computer matching activities,
including comparison of parking records with other Federal agencies,
and for the purpose of assigning tax liabilities related to the fringe
benefit accrual value of parking.
These records are maintained in file folders and in an automated
data base.
These records are retrieved by the names, Social Security Numbers,
permit numbers, addresses, or vehicle information of the individuals on
whom they are maintained.
These records are stored in secure areas and are available only to
authorized personnel whose duties require access.
These records are maintained for varying periods of time, in
accordance with NARA General Records Schedules 2 (pay) and 11 (parking
permits). Disposal of manual records is by shredding or burning;
electronic data is erased.
