    AGENCY: Bureau of Reclamation, Interior.
    
    ACTION: Notice of minor changes to 14 systems of records.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as 
    amended (5 U.S.C. 552a), notice is hereby given that the Department of 
    the Interior proposes minor changes to 14 systems of records managed by 
    the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation). These notices are published in 
    their entirety below.
    
    DATES: These actions are effective June 3, 1999.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information regarding these 
    systems of records contact Mr. Stan Seigal, Chief Realty Officer, 
    Policy Office at (303) 445-2915. For general information regarding 
    Reclamation's Privacy Act program, contact Mr. Casey Snyder at (303) 
    445-2048.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Recent Privacy Act Compilations list the 
    following systems of records with a prefix of ``Reclamation'' (e.g., 
    Reclamation-13). When originally published in the Federal Register 
    these systems of records were identified with an organization prefix of 
    ``LBR'' (e.g., LBR-13). The content of the systems of records is the 
    same; the prefixes on these systems were changed to reflect 
    organizational changes.
        The system of records notices being revised and the reason for 
    revision are listed below:
        This publication revises the system locations; a ``purpose(s)'' 
    section has been added which was not included in the original notices; 
    the routine uses, system manager's titles, and addresses have been 
    updated. All other changes are editorial in nature.
