Privacy Act of 1974; System of 

Records 

AGENCY: Financial Services Center 

(FSC), Department of Veterans Affairs 

(VA). 

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of 

records. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 

1974, notice is hereby given that the VA 

is modifying the system of records 

entitled, ‘‘Corporate Travel and Charge 

Cards—VA’’ (131VA047). This system is 

used for operating, auditing and 

managing the charge card program 

involving commercial purchases 

authorized by VA employees. It is an 

end-to-end travel management service 

that includes all aspects of official 

Federal business travel including travel 

planning, authorization, reservations, 

ticketing, fulfillment, expense 

reimbursement and travel management 

reporting. These records will include 

permanent change of station moves that 

have been approved for relocation 

entitlements. The system serves as a 

repository that captures all required 

documentation that would assist with 

providing instructions to obtain a 

government passport, visa and country 

clearance, as applicable, as well as 

timely approval routing, as outlined in 

VA travel policy for VA employees 

traveling in an official capacity to a 

foreign country. 

DATES: Comments on this modified 

system of records must be received no 

later than 30 days after date of 

publication in the Federal Register. If 

no public comment is received during 

the period allowed for comment or 

unless otherwise published in the 

Federal Register by VA, the modified 

system of records will become effective 

a minimum of 30 days after date of 

publication in the Federal Register. If 

VA receives public comments, VA shall 

review the comments to determine 

whether any changes to the notice are 

necessary. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be 

submitted through www.regulations.gov 

or mailed to VA Privacy Service, 810 

Vermont Avenue NW, (005X6F), 

Washington, DC 20420. Comments 

should indicate that they are submitted 

in response to Corporate Travel and 

Charge Cards—VA (131VA047). 

Comments received will be available at 

www.regulations.gov for public viewing, 

inspection or copies.
