SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 
5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of the Treasury (``Treasury''), 
Departmental Offices proposes to modify a current Treasury system of 
records titled, ``Department of the Treasury, Departmental Offices 
.214--DC Pensions Retirement Records System of Records.''
    The proposed modification to the system of records makes the 
following substantive changes:
    1. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, System Location, is 
being updated to remove the District of Columbia government offices as 
a location of records in the system of records. Paper and electronic 
records (including records stored in the District's FileNet system) 
stored by the District of Columbia government are not federal records.
    2. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, System Purpose, is 
being modified to add the following purposes: Determining liability for 
benefit payments to former judges; determining whether someone 
committed fraud; and determining the accuracy of financial reports. 
Additionally, the purpose of determining the impact of legislation is 
being modified to clarify that it applies to all benefit payments not 
just the federal funds.
    3. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Categories of 
Individuals Covered by System, is being modified to add non-annuitant 
debtors as a category of covered individuals. Non-annuitant debtors 
covered by the system include people who received benefit payments, by 
either fraud or mistake, despite not being entitled to benefits.
    4. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Categories of Records 
in the System, is being modified to add records provided by domestic 
partners, clarify the description of tax withholding forms, remove 
records related to debt other than debt arising from overpayments, 
change the description of correspondence to include correspondence from 
individuals covered by the system, use the term ``disability'' in lieu 
of ``handicap,'' use the term ``death benefit applications'' in lieu of 
``death claim,'' delete the category for records submitted by a 
beneficiary in support of claims to a benefit payment because it was 
duplicative, and add financial

[[Page 13612]]

records of debtors as a new category of records in the system.
    5. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Record Source 
Categories, is being modified to remove individuals' co-workers and 
supervisors as a source of records in the system and to add 
individuals' representatives and the Department of the Interior Payroll 
Office as sources of records in the system.
    6. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Routine Uses of Records 
Maintained in the System, is being modified to clarify the types of 
disclosures made to various federal, State, local, and foreign agencies 
and to Congressional offices. Additionally, the routine use regarding 
disclosure to an individual's spouse or dependent child regarding 
health and life insurance coverage, survivor benefit elections, and 
elections to receive a lump sum is being modified to include domestic 
partners and to cover any change in health insurance and to eliminate 
disclosure of change to a survivor benefit election, because survivor 
benefit elections cannot be changed. Also, the routine use regarding 
disclosure to state and local governments for debt collection is being 
modified to include disclosure to federal agencies and collection of 
debt that is not delinquent. Also, the routine use regarding disclosure 
to people possibly entitled to a benefit payment is being modified to 
clarify that it includes people possibly entitled to any type of 
benefit.
    7. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Policies and Practices 
for Retention and Disposal of Records, is being modified to remove 
District of Columbia guidelines as one of the basis for destroying 
records covered by the system.
    8. DO .214--DC Pensions Retirement Records, Notification 
Procedures, are being updated to reflect current procedures.
    The system of records is collecting information under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act using the following forms:

<bullet> Health Benefits Registration Form (SF 2809) OMB No. 3206-0160 
(expiration 04/30/2022)
<bullet> Life Insurance Election-FEGLI (SF 2817) OMB No. 3206-0230 
(expiration 06/30/2021)
<bullet> Designation of Beneficiary Federal Group Life Insurance 
(FEGLI) Program (SF 2823) OMB No. 3206-0136 (expiration 10/31/2020)
<bullet> Withholding Certificate for Pension or Annuity Payments (W-4P) 
OMB No. 1545-0074 (expiration 01/31/2021)

    Treasury will include this modified system in its inventory of 
record systems.

.214--DC Pensions Retirement Records System of Records.
