SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 

1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to 

establish a new DHS system of records 

titled, ‘‘DHS/ALL—032 Official Passport 

Application and Maintenance Records 

System of Records.’’ 

This system of records will allow DHS 

to collect and maintain a copy of an 

official passport application or 

maintenance record on DHS employees 

and former employees, including 

political appointees, civilian, and 

military personnel (and dependents and 

family members that accompany 

military members assigned outside the 

continental United States) assigned or 

detailed to the Department, individuals 

who are formally or informally 

associated with the Department, 

including advisory committee members, 

employees of other agencies and 

departments in the federal government, 

and other individuals in the private and 

public sector who are on official 

business with the Department, who in 

their official capacity, are applying for 

an official passport or updating their 

official passport records where a copy is

DHS is authorized to implement this 

program primarily through 5 U.S.C. 301;

advice and representation; to a 

congressional office at the request of an 

individual; to the National Archives and

records management; to contractors in 

support of their contract assignment to
