**ACTION :**  Notice to update an existing Privacy Act System of Records.

**SUMMARY :**  In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security proposes to update and reissue a current Department of Homeland Security system of records titled, ‘‘Department of Homeland Security/Transportation Security Administration—002 Transportation Security Threat Assessment System of Records.’’ This system of records allows the Department of Homeland Security/ Transportation Security Administration
to collect and maintain records related to security threat assessments, employment investigations, and evaluations that the Transportation Security Administration conducts on certain individuals for security purposes. For example, individuals who apply for a Transportation Worker
Identification Credential or a Hazardous Materials Endorsement must undergo a security threat assessment, and records
associated with the assessment are covered by this system.

TSA is making modifications to the ‘‘Purposes’’ section of the system of records to reflect the Department of Homeland Security’s use of information to more readily and effectively carry out the Department of Homeland Security’s national security, law enforcement, immigration, and benefits missions. Also, two categories of records that were previously listed in the ‘‘Categories of individuals covered by the system’’ section are being moved to the ‘‘Categories of records’’ section. Finally,
this notice includes non-substantive changes to simplify the formatting and text of the previously published notice.

Portions of this system are exempt under 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(1) and (k)(2) as reflected in the final rule published in
the Federal Register on June 25, 2004.

This updated system will continue to be included in the Department of Homeland Security’s inventory of record systems.

**DATES :**  Submit comments on or before September 10, 2014. This updated system will be effective September 10,

2014.

**ADDRESSES :**  You may submit comments, identified by docket number DHS– 2014–0038 by one of the following

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
I. Background

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Transportation Security Administration (TSA) proposes to update and reissue a current DHS system of records notice titled, ‘‘DHS/TSA—002 Transportation Security Threat Assessment System of
Records.’’

TSA’s mission is to protect the nation’s transportation systems to ensure freedom of movement for people and commerce. To achieve this mission, TSA is required to develop and adapt its security programs to respond to evolving threats to transportation security. The Security Threat Assessment System contains records related to security threat assessments, employment investigations, and
evaluations DHS/TSA conducts on certain individuals for security purposes. The information is collected to conduct security threat assessments on individuals to ensure they do not pose, and are not suspected of posing, a threat to transportation or national security. For example, individuals who apply for a Transportation Worker
Identification Credential or a Hazardous Materials Endorsement must undergo a security threat assessment and are covered by this system.

TSA is making the following
modifications:

• TSA is updating the Purpose(s)
section to reflect the use of information by DHS to more readily and effectively carry out DHS’s national security, law enforcement, immigration, and benefits

missions.

• TSA is updating the Categories of
Records section to include two categories of records that were previously listed in the ‘‘Categories of individuals covered by the system’’ section. These categories are records concerning the following individuals: (i)


### 46863 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 154 / Monday, August 11, 2014 / Notices

Known or suspected terrorists identified in the Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB) of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Terrorist Screening Center (TSC); individuals identified by
DHS/TSA to be included in the TSDB because they pose a threat to civil aviation or national security; and
individuals in classified and unclassified governmental terrorist, law enforcement, immigration, or intelligence databases, including databases maintained by the Department of Defense, National Counterterrorism Center, or FBI; and (ii) individuals who have been or seek to be distinguished from individuals on a watchlist through a redress process, or other means. This update reflects a conclusion that these categories are more appropriately categories of records used in this system, rather than categories of individuals maintained in this system.

Consistent with DHS’s informationsharing mission, information stored in the DHS/TSA—002 Transportation Security Threat Assessment System of Records may be shared with other DHS components that have a need to know the information to carry out their national security, law enforcement, immigration, intelligence, or other homeland security functions. In addition, information may be shared with appropriate federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, or foreign government agencies consistent with the routine uses set forth in this system of records

notice.

Portions of this system are exempt under 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(1) and (k)(2). In addition, to the extent a record contains information from other exempt systems of records, DHS/TSA will rely on the exemptions claimed for those systems as reflected in the final rule published on June 25, 2004, 69 FR 35536.

II. Privacy Act

The Privacy Act embodies fair information principles in a statutory framework governing the means by which Federal Government agencies collect, maintain, use, and disseminate individuals’ records. The Privacy Act applies to information that is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’ A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any records under the control of an agency from which information is retrieved by the name of an individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual. The Privacy Act defines
‘‘individual’’ as a United States citizen or a lawful permanent resident. As a matter of policy, DHS extends administrative Privacy Act protections to all individuals when systems of records maintain information on U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and visitors. Below is the description of the DHS/TSA—002 Transportation Security Threat Assessment System System of Records.

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), DHS has provided a report of this system of records to the Office of Management and Budget and to Congress.
