    1992.
    
    DATES: Comments must be received no later than September 29, 1995. The

    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gerry Isenberg, Debt Management

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FMS has been designated by the Office of 
    Management and Budget as the lead agency in credit management and debt 
    collection for the Federal Government. FMS is altering this system of 
    records by adding two routine uses which are to facilitate the 
    collection of delinquent Federal debts and to more effectively apply 
    certain debt collection tools established under Federal law, 
    specifically tax refund offset, administrative offset, and Federal 
    employee salary offset. FMS has closed the Washington, DC, Financial 
    Center and the system of records is being altered to reflect this 
    change as well.
        For the reasons set forth in the preamble, FMS proposes to alter 
    system of records Treasury/FMS .002, ``Payment Issue Records for 
    Regular Recurring Benefit Payments--Treasury/Financial Management 
    Service'', as follows:
    Treasury/FMS .002
        Payment Issue Records for Regular Recurring Benefit Payments--
    Treasury/Financial Management Service.
        Description of the change: Replace current text with the following 
    language: The Financial Management Service, U.S. Department of the 
    Treasury, Washington, DC 20227. Records maintained at Financial Centers 
    in six regions: Austin, TX; Birmingham, AL; Chicago, IL; Kansas City, 
    MO; Philadelphia, PA; and San Francisco, CA.
    * * * * *
    * * * * *
        Description of the changes: Remove ``and'' at end of routine use 
    (9); remove the period (.) at the end of routine use (10); add a 
    semicolon, and add routine uses (11) and (12) to read as follows:
        * * *(11) disclose information concerning delinquent debtors to 
    Federal creditor agencies, their employees, or their agents for the 
    purpose of facilitating or conducting Federal administrative offset, 
    Federal tax refund offset, Federal salary offset, or for any other 
    authorized debt collection purpose; and (12) disclose to the Defense 
    Manpower Data Center and the United States Postal Service and other 
    Federal agencies through authorized computer matching programs for the 
    purpose of identifying and locating individuals who are delinquent in 
    their repayment of debts owed to the Department or other Federal 
    agencies in order to collect those debts through salary offset and 
    administrative offset, or by the use of other debt collection tools.
