DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION 

[Docket ID ED–2023–OPE–0164] 

Privacy Act of 1974; System of 

Records 

AGENCY: Office of Postsecondary 

Education, U.S. Department of 

Education. 

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of 

records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, as amended 

(Privacy Act), the U.S Department of 

Education (Department) publishes this 

notice of a modified system of records 

entitled and numbered ‘‘FulbrightHays—Doctoral Dissertation Research 

Abroad (DDRA), Faculty Research 

Abroad (FRA), and Seminars Abroad 

(SA)’’ (18–12–02), which was formerly 

entitled and numbered ‘‘FulbrightHays—Doctoral Dissertation Research 

Abroad (DDRA) and Seminars Abroad 

(SA)’’ (18–12–02). The information 

contained in this system is used to 

determine applicants’ qualifications, 

eligibility, suitability, and feasibility to 

receive a fellowship under the DDRA, 

FRA, and SA programs; to award 

benefits for overseas research; to 

monitor the progress of the projects 

funded under these programs, including 

their accomplishments; and, to 

demonstrate the programs’ effectiveness. 

This system of records notice is being 

modified to cover the FRA program 

records. In fiscal year 2011, funding for 

the Department’s International and 

Foreign Language Education (IFLE) 

office, which administers the FulbrightHays programs, was cut significantly, 

and the FRA program was discontinued 

as a result. The Department therefore 

removed the FRA program from this 

system of records notice. Recently, 

funding for IFLE has increased. As such, 

IFLE now wishes to reinstate the FRA 

program, and it is therefore necessary 

for the Department to modify this 

system of records notice to again cover 

FRA program records. 

DATES: Submit your comments on this 

modified system of records notice on or 

before January 22, 2024. 

This modified system of records 

notice will become applicable upon 

publication in the Federal Register on 

December 22, 2023, except for new and 

modified routine uses (3), (11), and (15)

‘‘ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS 

MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, 

INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS 

AND PURPOSES OF SUCH USES,’’ 

which will be applicable on January 22, 

2024, unless they need to be changed as 

a result of public comment. The 

Department will publish any changes to 

the modified system of records notice 

resulting from public comment.

submitted via the Federal eRulemaking 

Portal at regulations.gov. However, if 

you require an accommodation or 

cannot otherwise submit your 

comments via regulations.gov, please

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the Privacy Act, the 

Department is modifying the system of 

records entitled and numbered 

‘‘Fulbright-Hays—Doctoral Dissertation 

Research Abroad (DDRA), Faculty 

Research Abroad (FRA), and Seminars 

Abroad (SA)’’ (18–12–02), which was 

formerly entitled and numbered

Research Abroad (DDRA) and Seminars 

Abroad (SA)’’ (18–12–02) when the 

system of records notice was last 

published in full in the Federal Register

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 

OF USERS AND PURPOSES OF SUCH 

USES’’ as follows: 

(i) Routine use (3) is being modified 

to clarify that it applies to ‘‘judicial or 

administrative’’ litigation, rather than 

just ‘‘litigation,’’ in order to make the 

routine use more specific and clearer; 

(ii) Routine use (11) is being modified 

to clarify that the Department may 

disclose the records of an individual to 

a Member of Congress or their staff 

when necessary to respond to an inquiry 

from the Member and that the Member’s
