    Authority: The Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) and Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-130.

SUMMARY: CSOSA is proposing to establish blanket routine uses in order 
to: (1) Better meet our agency mission, particularly to increase public

administrative burden on CSOSA by reducing the number of single 
requests for information from our law enforcement partners.
    Unless indicated otherwise by another public notice, these blanket 
routine uses will apply to following CSOSA systems of records:

CSOSA Blanket Routine Uses

    Subject: Blanket Routines Uses Applicable to More than One CSOSA 
Privacy Act System of Records.
    Applicability: The following routine uses describe those types of 
disclosures which are common to more than one CSOSA Privacy Act system 
of records for which CSOSA is establishing as ``blanket'' routine uses. 
These blanket routine uses supplement but do not replace any routine 
uses that are separately published in the notices of individual record 
systems to which the blanket routine uses apply.
    Routine Uses of Records Maintained in CSOSA Systems, Including 
Categories of Users and the Purposes of Such Uses: System records may 
be disclosed to the following persons or entities under the 
circumstances or for the purposes described below to the extent such 
disclosures are compatible with the purposes for which the information 
was collected.

to accomplish their assigned duties unless prohibited by law or 
regulation.
    B. To a Federal, State, local, foreign, or international law 
enforcement agency to assist in the general crime prevention and 
detection efforts of the recipient agency or to provide investigative 
leads to such agency.

public authority responsible for investigating, prosecuting, enforcing
