DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
[AAG/A Order No. 82-94]
Privacy Act of 1974; New System of Records
Pursuant to the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a), the Department of
Justice, United States Marshals Service, proposes to establish a new
Privacy Act system of records entitled ``U.S. Marshals Service (USMS)
Key Control Record System, JUSTICE/USM-016.''
Title 5 U.S.C. 552a(e) (4) and (11) provide that the public be
given a 30-day period in which to comment on any new routine uses of a
system of records. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which has
oversight responsibilities under the Act, requires a 40-day period in
which to conclude its review of the system.
Therefore, please submit any comments by March 25, 1994. The
public, OMB, and the Congress are invited to submit written comments to
Patricia E. Neely, Staff Assistant, Systems Policy Staff, Information
Resources Management, Justice Management Division, Department of
Justice, Washington, DC 20530 (Room 850, WCTR Building).
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), the Department has provided a
report on this system to OMB and the Congress.
The system description is printed below.
Dated: February 4, 1994.
Stephen R. Colgate,
Assistant Attorney General for Administration.
JUSTICE/USM-016
U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) Key Control Record System.
Internal Security Division, Office of Inspections, United States
Marshals Service, 2611 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, Virginia.
Current and former employees of the USMS who have been issued
office keys for USMS Headquarters locations.
Records contained in this system consist of an automated index
which includes the name of the employee to whom a key is issued; the
social security number (only when two or more employees have identical
names, including middle initial); unique key identification code
number; key type (e.g., grand master, master, submaster, change);
storage container hook number; description (e.g., number
identification) of door(s), room(s), and/or area(s) the key opens or
accesses; transaction type and/or status (e.g., key issued,
transferred, retrieved, lost, broken) and transaction date; and, any
other appropriate comment, e.g., comments regarding key, door, room,
area, etc. In addition, a manual index with abbreviated data is
maintained as a backup system. This manual index includes the room/
suite number, the name of the employee to whom a key is issued, the key
identification code number, and date(s) of issuance and retrieval.
5 U.S.C. 301 and 44 U.S.C. 3101.
The USMS Key Control Record System serves as a record of keys
issued and facilitates continuing security at USMS Headquarters
locations. Records are maintained to assist in restricting office and
work area access to authorized USMS personnel by controlling,
monitoring and tracking keys issued. In addition, records assist in
identifying any repairs, changes, or additional security measures that
may be necessary as a result of lost or broken keys.
Records or information may be disclosed: (a) In the event that a
record(s) indicate a violation or potential violation of law, whether
civil, criminal, or regulatory in nature, and whether arising by
general statute or particular program statute, or by rule, regulation,
or order pursuant thereto, the relevant record(s) may be disclosed to
the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, or local, charged with
the responsibility of investigating or prosecuting such violation, and/
or charged with enforcing or implementing such statute, rule,
regulation or order, (b) in a proceeding before a court or adjudicative
body before which the USMS is authorized to appear when any of the
following is a party to litigation or has an interest in litigation and
such records are determined by the USMS to be arguably relevant to the
litigation: The USMS or any of its subdivisions; any USMS employee in
his or her official capacity, or in his or her individual capacity
where the Department of Justice agrees to represent the employee; or
the United States where the USMS determines that the litigation is
likely to affect it or any of its subdivisions, (c) to the news media
and the public pursuant to 28 CFR 50.2 unless it is determined that
release of the specific information in the context of a particular case
would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, (d) to a
Member of Congress or staff acting upon the Member's behalf when the
Member or staff requests the information on behalf of and at the
request of the individual who is the subject of the record, and (e) to
the National Archives and Records Administration and to the General
Services Administration in records management inspections conducted
under the authority of 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
Automated index records are stored on magnetic disks. Paper copies
of automated records are kept in file folders and original paper
records of the manual index are stored in card files.
Records are retrieved by name of the individuals covered by the
system.
Access to these records is restricted to personnel of the USMS
Internal Security Division. Computerized records may be accessed only
by assigned code and password. Paper records are located in a
restricted area and are maintained in metal filing cabinets or safes
which are locked during non-duty hours.
Records are retained for 3 years after turn-in of the key, at which
time they are destroyed (General Records Schedule 18).
Chief, Internal Security Division, Office of Inspections, United
