Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 16 / Tuesday, January 25, 2011 / Notices 4463 

B. Purpose 

The system is designed to process 

individual applications for the 

Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer 

program, and to assess a candidate’s 

suitability for a position in the program. 

II. Authority for Maintenance of the 

System 

Public Health Service Act, Section 

203, ‘‘Commissioned Corps’’ and Section 

207, ‘‘Appointment of Personnel’’ (42 

U.S.C. 204, 209). 

III. Proposed Routine Use Disclosures 

of Data in the System 

Disclosure may be made to a 

congressional office from the record of 

an individual in response to a verified 

inquiry from the congressional office 

made at the written request of that 

individual. 

The Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) may disclose 

information from this system of records 

to the Department of Justice, or to a 

court or other tribunal, when: (a) HHS, 

or any component thereof; or (b) any 

HHS employee in his or her official 

capacity; or (c) any HHS employee in 

his or her individual capacity where the 

Department of Justice (or HHS, where it 

is authorized to do so) has agreed to 

represent the employee; or (d) the 

United States or any agency thereof 

where HHS determines that the 

litigation is likely to affect HHS or any 

of its components, is a party to litigation 

or has an interest in such litigation, and 

HHS determines that the use of such 

records by the Department of Justice, the 

court or other tribunal is relevant and 

necessary to the litigation and would 

help in the effective representation of 

the governmental party, provided, 

however, that in each case, HHS 

determines that such disclosure is 

compatible with the purpose for which 

the records were collected. 

Records may be disclosed to 

appropriate federal agencies and 

Department contractors that have a need 

to know the information for the purpose 

of assisting the Department’s efforts to 

respond to a suspected or confirmed 

breach of the security or confidentiality 

of information disclosed is relevant and 

necessary for that assistance. 

IV. Effects of the Proposed System of 

Records on Individual Rights 

The first routine use permits an 

individual may learn if a record exists 

about himself or herself by contacting 

the system manager at the address 

above. Requesters in person must 

provide driver’s license or other positive 

identification. Individuals who do not 

appear in person must either: (1) submit 

a notarized request to verify their 

identity; or (2) certify that they are the 

individuals they claim to be and that 

they understand that the knowing and 

willful request for or acquisition of a 

record pertaining to an individual under 

false pretenses is a criminal offense 

under the Privacy Act subject to a 

$5,000 fine. 

Same as notification procedures. 

Requesters should also reasonably 

specify the record contents being 

sought. An accounting of disclosures 

that have been made of the record, if 

any, may be requested. 

V. Safeguards 

The records in this System are stored 

in the file folders, computer tapes/disks, 

and CD–ROMs. The records are 

retrieved by name. 

The records in this System have the 

following safeguards in place to 

maintain and protect the information as 

it relates to Authorized users, physical 

and procedural safeguards: 

Authorized users—Access is granted 

to only a limited number of physicians, 

scientists, statisticians, and designated 

support staff of the Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC), as 

authorized by the system manager to 

accomplish the stated purposes for 

which the data in this system have been 

collected. 

Physical Safeguards—Hardcopy 

records are kept in locked cabinets in 

locked rooms, security guard service in 

buildings, personnel screening of 

visitors, copies of files stored in a 

separate secure off-site location. 

Procedural Safeguards—The OWCD 

Local Area Network (LAN) uses security 

packages to control unauthorized access 

to the system. Attempts to gain access 

by unauthorized individuals are 

automatically recorded and reviewed on 

a daily basis. Protection for 

computerized records both on the 

mainframe and the OWCD LAN include 

programmed verification of valid user 

identification code and password prior 

to logging on to the system, mandatory 

password changes, limited log-ins, virus 

protection, and user rights/file attribute 

restrictions. Password protection 

imposes user name and password log-in 

requirements to prevent unauthorized 

access. Each user name is assigned 

limited access rights to files and 

directories at varying levels to control 

file sharing. There are routine daily 

backup procedures and secure off-site 

storage is available for backup tapes. 

CDC employees who maintain records 

are instructed to check with the system 

manager prior to making disclosures of 

data. 

Implementation Guidelines: The 

safeguards outlined above are in 

accordance with the HHS Information 

Security Program Policy and FIPS Pub 

200, ‘‘Minimum Security Requirements 

for Federal Information and Information 

Systems.’’ Data maintained on CDC’s 

Mainframe and the OWCD LAN are in 

compliance with OMB Circular A–130, 

Appendix III. Security is provided for 

information collection, processing, 

transmission, storage, and 

dissemination in general support 

systems and major applications.

I. Background and Purpose of the 

System 

A. Background 

The Department of Health and Human 

Services proposes to alter System of 

Records, No. 09–20–0147 ‘‘Occupational 

Health Epidemiological Studies and 

EEOICPA Program Records, HHS/CDC/ 

NIOSH.’’ HHS is proposing to add the 

following Breach Response Routine Use 

Language to comply with the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) 

Memoranda (M) 07–16, Safeguarding 

Against and Responding to the Breach 

of Personally Identifiable Information: 

To appropriate Federal agencies and 

Department contractors that have a need 

to know the information for the purpose 

of assisting the Department’s efforts to 

respond to a suspected or confirmed 

breach of the security or confidentiality 

of information disclosed is relevant and 

necessary for that assistance. 

B. Purpose 

Studies carried out under this system 

are to evaluate mortality and morbidity 

of occupationally related diseases and 

injuries, to determine their causes, and 

to lead toward prevention of 

occupationally related diseases and 

injuries in the future. EEOICPA records 

are maintained to enable NIOSH to 

fulfill its dose reconstruction 

responsibilities under the Act. 

II. Authority for Maintenance of the 

System 

Public Health Service Act, Section 

301, ‘‘Research and Investigation’’ (42 

U.S.C. 241); Occupational Safety and 

Health Act, Section 20, ‘‘Research and 

Related Activities’’ (29 U.S.C. 669); the 

Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 

1977, Section 501, ‘‘Research’’ (30 U.S.C. 

951) and the Energy Employees 

Occupational Illness Compensation 

Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA) (42 

U.S.C. 7384, et seq.) 

III. Proposed Routine Use Disclosures 

of Data in the System 

The Privacy Act allows us to disclose 

information without an individual’s 

consent if the information is to be used 

for a purpose that is compatible with the 

purpose(s) for which the information 

was collected. Any such compatible use 

of data is known as a ‘‘routine use.’’ The 

routine uses proposed for this System 

are compatible with the stated purpose 

of the System and support the agency’s 

evaluation of mortality and morbidity of 

occupationally related diseases and 

injuries, determination their causes 

prevention of occupationally related 

diseases and injuries in the future, and 

enable NIOSH to fulfill its dose 

reconstruction responsibilities under 

the EEOICPA. 

Portions of records (name, Social 

Security number if known, date of birth, 

and last known address) may be 

disclosed to one or more of the sources 

selected from those listed in Appendix 

I, as applicable. This may be done for 

obtaining a determination regarding an 

individual’s health status and last 

known address. If the sources determine 

that the individual is dead, NIOSH may 

obtain death certificates, which state the 

cause of death, from the appropriate 

Federal, State or local agency. If the 

individual is alive, NIOSH may obtain 

information on health status from 

disease registries or on last known 

address in order to contact the 

individual for a health study or to 

inform him or her of health findings. 

This information on health status 

enables NIOSH to evaluate whether 

excess occupationally related mortality 

or morbidity is occurring. 

In the event of litigation where the 

defendant is: (a) The Department, any 

component of the Department, or any 

employee of the Department in his or 

her official capacity; (b) the United 

States where the Department determines 

that the claim, if successful, is likely to 

directly affect the operations of the 

Department or any of its components; or 

(c) any Department employee in his or 

her individual capacity where the 

Department of Justice has agreed to 

represent such employee, for example, 

in defending a claim against the Public 

Health Service based upon an 

individual’s mental or physical 

condition and alleged to have arisen 

because of activities of the Public Health 

Service in connection with such 

individual, disclosure may be made to 

the Department of Justice to enable that 

Department to present an effective 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES2

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 16 / Tuesday, January 25, 2011 / Notices 4465 

defense, provided that such disclosure 

is compatible with the purpose for 

which the records were collected. 

Records may also be disclosed when 

deemed desirable or necessary, to the 

Department of Justice, and/or the 

Department of Labor, to enable those 

Departments to effectively represent the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services and/or the Department of Labor 

in litigation involving the Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness 

Compensation Program Act of 2000 

(EEOICPA). 

Records subject to the Privacy Act are 

disclosed to private firms for data entry, 

scientific support services, nosology 

coding, computer systems analysis and 

computer programming services. The 

contractors promptly return data entry 

records after the contracted work is 

completed. The contractors are required 

to maintain Privacy Act safeguards. 

Certain diseases or exposures may be 

reported to State and/or local health 

departments where the State has a 

legally constituted reporting program for 

communicable diseases and which 

provides for the confidentiality of the 

information. 

In the event of litigation initiated at 

the request of NIOSH, the Institute may 

disclose such records as it deems 

desirable or necessary to the Department 

of Justice and to the Department of 

Labor, Office of the Solicitor, where 

appropriate, to enable the Departments 

to effectively represent the Institute, 

provided such disclosure is compatible 

with the purpose for which the records 

were collected. The only types of 

litigation proceedings that NIOSH is 

authorized to request are: (1) 

Enforcement of a subpoena issued to an 

employer to provide relevant 

information; and (2) administrative 

search warrants to obtain access to 

places of employment and relevant 

information therein and related 

contempt citations against an employer 

for failure to comply with a warrant 

obtained by the Institute; and (3) 

injunctive relief against employers or 

mine operators to obtain access to 

relevant information. 

Disclosure may be made to NIOSH 

collaborating researchers (e.g., NIOSH 

contractors, grantees, cooperative 

agreement holders, or other Federal or 

State scientists) in order to accomplish 

the research purpose for which the 

records are collected. The collaborating 

researchers must agree in writing to 

comply with the confidentiality 

provisions of the Privacy Act and 

NIOSH must have determined that the 

researchers’ data security procedures 

will protect confidentiality. 

Disclosure of epidemiologic study 

records pertaining to uranium workers 

may be made to the Department of 

Justice to be used in determining 

eligibility for compensation payments to 

the uranium workers or their survivors. 

Records may be disclosed by CDC in 

connection with public health activities 

to the Social Security Administration 

for sources of locating information to 

accomplish the research or program 

purposes for which the records were 

collected. 

Disclosure of records or portions of 

records may be made to a Member of 

Congress or a Congressional staff 

member submitting a verified request 

involving an individual who is entitled 

to the information and has requested 

assistance from the Member or staff 

member. The Member of Congress or 

Congressional staff member must 

provide a copy of the individual’s 

written request for assistance. 

Records may be disclosed to 

appropriate Federal agencies and 

Department contractors that have a need 

to know the information for the purpose 

of assisting the Department’s efforts to 

respond to a suspected or confirmed 

breach of the security or confidentiality 

of information disclosed is relevant and 

necessary for that assistance. 

The Following Routine Uses Apply 

Only to EEOICPA Program Records 

Disclosure of dose reconstructions, 

epidemiologic study records and 

employment and medical information 

pertaining to Department of Energy 

employees and other cancer-related 

claimants covered under the Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness 

Compensation Program Act may be 

made to the Department of Labor to be 

used in determining eligibility for 

compensation payments to such 

claimants and in defending its 

determinations under the Act. 

Disclosure of personal identifying 

information associated with cancerrelated claims under the Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness 

Compensation Program Act may be 

made to the Department of Energy, other 

Federal agencies, other government or 

private entities and to private-sector 

employers to permit these entities to 

retrieve records required to reconstruct 

radiation doses and to enable NIOSH to 

evaluate petitions for inclusion in the 

Special Exposure Cohort. 

Completed dose reconstruction 

reports for cancer-related claims under 

the Energy Employees Occupational 

Illness Compensation Program Act may 

be released to the Department of Energy 

and the Department of Labor to permit 

these entities to fulfill EEOICPA and 

HHS dose reconstruction regulation 

requirements to notify claimants of their 

dose reconstruction results. 

Disclosure of personal identifying 

information associated with cancerrelated claims under the Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness 

Compensation Program Act may be 

made to identified witnesses as 

designated by the Office of 

Compensation Analysis and Support to 

assist NIOSH in obtaining information 

required to complete the dose 

reconstruction process and to enable 

NIOSH to evaluate petitions for 

inclusion in the Special Exposure 

Cohort. 

IV. Effects of the Proposed System of 

Records on Individual Rights 

The routine uses proposed for this 

System are compatible with the stated 

purpose of the System and support the 

agency’s evaluation of mortality and 

morbidity of occupationally related 

diseases and injuries, determination 

their causes prevention of 

occupationally related diseases and 

injuries in the future, and enable NIOSH 

to fulfill its dose reconstruction 

responsibilities under the EEOICPA. 

An individual may learn if a record 

exists about himself or herself by 

contacting the system manager at the 

above address. Requesters in person 

must provide driver’s license or other 

positive identification. Individuals who 

do not appear in person must either: (1) 

Submit a notarized request to verify 

their identity; or (2) certify that they are 

the individuals they claim to be and that 

they understand that the knowing and 

willful request for or acquisition of a 

record pertaining to an individual under 

false pretenses is a criminal offense 

under the Privacy Act subject to a 

$5,000 fine. 

An individual who requests 

notification of or access to medical 

records shall, at the time the request is 

made, designate in writing a responsible 

representative who is willing to review 

the record and inform the subject 

individual of its contents. A subject 

individual will be granted direct access 

to a medical record if the system 

manager determines direct access is not 

likely to have adverse effect on the 

subject individual. 

The following information must be 

provided when requesting notification: 

(1) Full name; (2) the approximate date 

and place of the study, if known; and (3) 

nature of the questionnaire or study in 

which the requester participated. 

Same as notification procedures. 

Requesters should also reasonably 

specify the record contents being 

sought. An accounting of disclosures 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES2

4466 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 16 / Tuesday, January 25, 2011 / Notices 

that have been made of the record, if 

any, may be requested. 

V. Safeguards 

The records in this System are 

retained and disposed of in the 

following way: Records are retained and 

disposed of according to the provisions 

of the CDC Electronic Records Control 

Schedule for NIOSH records. Records 

are maintained in agency for three years 

after the close of the study. Records 

transferred to the Federal Records 

Center when no longer needed for 

evaluation and analysis are destroyed 

after 75 years for epidemiologic studies, 

unless needed for further study. Records 

from health hazard evaluations will be 

retained at least 20 years. EEOICPA 

program records are transferred to the 

Federal Records Center 15 years after 

the case file becomes inactive and are 

destroyed after 75 years. Paper files that 

have been scanned to create electronic 

copies are disposed of after the copies 

are verified. Disposal methods include 

erasing computer tapes and burning or 

shredding paper materials. 

The records in this System have the 

following safeguards in place to 

maintain and protect the information as 

it relates to Authorized users, physical 

and procedural safeguards: 

Authorized users—A database 

software security package is utilized to 

control unauthorized access to the 

system. Access is granted to only a 

limited number of physicians, scientists, 

statisticians, and designated support 

staff or contractors, as authorized by the 

system manager to accomplish the 

stated purposes for which the data in 

this system have been collected. 

Physical Safeguards—Hard copy 

records are kept in locked cabinets in 

locked rooms. Guard service in 

buildings provides screening of visitors. 

The limited access, secured computer 

room contains fire extinguishers and an 

overhead sprinkler system. Computer 

workstations and automated records are 

located in secured areas. Electronic antiintrusion devices are in operation at the 

Federal Records Center. 

Procedural Safeguards—Data sets are 

password protected and/or encrypted. 

Protection for computerized records 

both on the mainframe and the NIOSH 

Local Area Network (LAN) includes 

programmed verification of valid user 

identification code and password prior 

to logging on to the system, mandatory 

password changes, limited log-ins, virus 

protection, and user rights/file attribute 

restrictions. Password protection 

imposes user name and password log-in 

requirements to prevent unauthorized 

access. Each user name is assigned 

limited access rights to files and 

directories at varying levels to control 

file sharing. There are routine daily 

backup procedures and secure off-site 

storage is available for backup tapes. 

Additional safeguards may be built into 

the program by the system analyst as 

warranted by the sensitivity of the data. 

Employees and contractor staff who 

maintain records are instructed to check 

with the system manager prior to 

making disclosures of data. When 

individually identified data are being 

used in a room, admittance at either 

government or contractor sites is 

restricted to specifically authorized 

personnel. Privacy Act provisions are 

included in contracts, and the Project 

Director, contract officers and project 

officers oversee compliance with these 

requirements. Upon completion of the 

contract, all data will be either returned 

to CDC or destroyed, as specified by the 

contract. 

Implementation Guidelines: The 

safeguards outlined above are in 

accordance with the HHS Information 

Security Program Policy and FIPS Pub 

200, ‘‘Minimum Security Requirements 

for Federal Information and Information 

Systems.’’ Data maintained on CDC’s 

Mainframe and the NIOSH LAN are in 

compliance with OMB Circular A–130, 

Appendix III. The CDC LAN currently 

operates under a Microsoft Windows 

Server and is in compliance with 

applicable security standards.
