[Docket ID: USN-2021-HQ-0002]


Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: United States Marine Corps (USMC), Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION: Notice of a new system of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Navy is establishing a new System of 
Records entitled the Command Individual Risk and Resiliency System 
(CIRRAS) application. The CIRRAS application will be used by the USMC 
to enable Commanding Officers and Senior Enlisted Advisors to make 
informed and timely decisions on Force Preservation Risk Assessments, 
to optimize individual/unit readiness, and to facilitate enterprise-
wide risk management. Individual data will assist commanders by quickly 
identifying those Marines or Service Members requiring immediate 
command attention. Trend analysis will assist USMC commanders to 
implement mitigation strategies to improve overall individual/unit 
readiness. These records will also be used as a management tool for 
statistical analysis, tracking, reporting, evaluating program 
effectiveness, and conducting research.

DATES: This new system of records is effective upon publication; 
however, comments on the Routine Uses will be accepted on or before 
March 24, 2021. The Routine Uses are effective at the close of the 
comment period.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by any of the following methods:
    * Federal Rulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.
    Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
    * Mail: DoD cannot receive written comments at this time due to the 
COVID-19 pandemic. Comments should be sent electronically to the docket 
listed above.
    Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name 
and docket number for this Federal Register document. The general 
policy for comments and other submissions from members of the public is 
to make these

[[Page 10552]]

submissions available for public viewing on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov as they are received without change, including any 
personal identifiers or contact information.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sally A. Hughes, FOIA/PA Program 
Manager (ARSF), Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps, 3000 Marine Corps 
Pentagon, Washington, DC 20350-3000, telephone (703) 614-4008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ``Marine Corps Risk and Resiliency 
Records'' system of records is being established by the USMC to support 
Force Preservation Risk Assessments. The Marine Corps force 
preservation process is the formalized method used by commanders to 
identify individual Marine risk factors and to apply holistic risk 
management measures to improve individual and unit readiness. Every 
day, this process assists leaders across the Corps to identify those in 
need. However, gaps in knowledge have historically limited the 
effectiveness of the effort. To improve the process, the USMC is 
developing the CIRRAS application, which compiles individual force 
preservation data input by small unit leaders, medical officers, and 
other support staff. By presenting timely, prioritized, actionable 
information to those who can help Marines, and by protecting 
unauthorized disclosure through strict access limits and cybersecurity, 
leaders will be better equipped to reduce destructive behaviors in 
their units.
    Force Preservation Risk Assessments are based on the identification 
and tracking of individual Service Member behaviors associated with 
increased risk or resiliency as defined by the Commandant's ``Six Fs,'' 
as defined in Marine Corps Order 1500.61, 28 July 2017. The Six Fs are 
Fidelity, Fighter, Fitness, Family, Finances and Future. Force 
Preservation Risk Assessments include critical stressors that are 
environmental factors or experiences that can overtax a Service 
Member's coping resources. The intensity or accumulation of multiple 
stressors is linked to a greater likelihood of harmful reactions 
including death by suicide. The CIRRAS application is a networked, web-
based application that captures risk, resiliency and critical stressor 
factors for all United States Marines and United States Armed Forces 
Service Members assigned to the USMC to provide Force Preservation 
information to the unit commander. The CIRRAS will directly support 
Commanders/Officers in Charge and Senior Enlisted Advisors by providing 
a tool to enable proactive identification and assessment of individual 
Marines' or Service Members' risk, resiliency, and critical stressor 
factors. Also, the system will allow the transfer of the same factors 
between commands in order to optimize individual/unit readiness and 
facilitate enterprise-wide risk management of individual Marines' risk 
status. The CIRRAS will be used by Regimental/Group Commanders through 
immediate supervisors (Platoon Commander/Officers in Charge) of all 
United States Marines and United States Armed Forces Service Members 
assigned to the USMC in accordance with Marine Corps Order 5100.29B, 
Marine Corps Safety Program; MCO 1500.60, Force Preservation Council 
(FPC) Program; and other Force Preservation Directives.
    The DoD notices for systems of records subject to the Privacy Act 
of 1974, as amended, have been published in the Federal Register and 
are available from the address in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or at 
the Defense Privacy, Civil Liberties, and Transparency Division website 
at https://dpcld.defense.gov.
    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) and Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, the DoD has provided a report of this 
system of records to the OMB and to Congress.

professional

[[Page 10554]]

security staff utilizing surveillance, detection systems, and other 
electronic means. Authorized staff utilize multi-factor authentication 
mechanisms to access and exit data centers and server rooms. Entrances 
to server rooms are secured with devices that sound alarms to initiate 
an incident response if the door is forced or held open. Electronic 
intrusion detection systems are installed within the data layer to 
monitor, detect, and automatically alert appropriate personnel of 
security incidents. Data at Rest Encryption and Risk Management 
Framework security controls, which include security controls for the 
PII and Protected Health Information (PHI) overlays, are utilized.
