SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[Release No. PA-20]
Privacy Act of 1974: Deletion, Modification, and Redesignation of
Privacy Act Systems of Records
AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.
ACTION: Notification of deletion and modification of Privacy Act
Systems of Records and redesignation of all records systems for the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Securities and Exchange Commission
is removing four records systems that are either duplicative of a
government-wide records system; not retrieved by name or personal
identifier, and, therefore, not a Privacy Act system; not implemented
or in effect; or obsolete. The Commission is also modifying forty-one
systems that involve updating the Commission's address as reflected in
the system locations, system manager(s) and address, retention and
disposal, notification procedures, and record access procedures, due to
recent office moves. Finally, the release would revise the Federal
Register's biennial compilation of Federal Agency Privacy Act System
Notices by redesignating/renumbering the Commission's records systems
and by removing appendix A and replacing it with a Table of Contents.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 11, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Hannah R. Hall, Privacy Act Officer,
Tel. (202) 942-4320, Office of the Executive Director, Freedom of
Information Act and Privacy Act Operations, Securities and Exchange
Commission, Operations Center, 6432 General Green Way, Mail Stop O-5,
Alexandria, VA 22312-2413.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the course of reviewing its Privacy Act
systems of records notices, the Commission identified four systems of
records which are being removed: SEC-21, ``Division of Corporate
Regulation Bankruptcy Act Records''; SEC-30, ``Equal Employment
Opportunity Complaints''; SEC-39, ``Telephone Call Detail Records'';
and SEC-57, ``SECO Files.'' With respect to SEC-21, the records in the
system are not retrievable by name or other personal identifier and,
therefore, the system is not a Privacy Act system of records. With
respect to SEC-30, the records are maintained in another system of
records subject to a government-wide system notice (EEOC/GOVT-1),
published by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. With respect
to SEC-39, the Commission published a notice of its intent to establish
this system of records subject to any comments ``which would result in
a contrary determination.'' 60 FR 48733 (Sept. 20, 1995). In response
to comments received, the Commission determined not to implement the
system of records and, therefore, withdraws its Privacy Act notice.
With respect to SEC-57, the Commission no longer places records in this
system, which is now obsolete.
In addition, the Commission has deemed it necessary to redesignate/
renumber all remaining systems notices. Finally, the Commission is
replacing the appendix A of the systems of records with a Table of
Contents, to provide a better guide to the Commission's Privacy Act
systems notices. For the purposes of complying with the Privacy Act and
OMB Circular A-130, these modifications are minor changes and do not
require an advance report to, and review by, the Congress and the
Office of Management and Budget.
The following systems of records are hereby removed from the
Federal Register because they are either: (1) Duplicative of a
government-wide records system; (2) not retrieved by name or personal
identifier and, therefore, not a Privacy Act system of records; (3) not
implemented or in effect; or (4) obsolete.

System name: Division of Corporate Regulation Bankruptcy Act
Records.
SEC-30
System name: Equal Employment Opportunity Complaints.
