AGENCY: Office of the General Counsel, 

U.S. Office of Personnel Management. 

ACTION: Notice of modified system of

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, the Office of 

Personnel Management (OPM) proposes 

to modify the current system of records 

titled, ‘‘OPM/Central-7, Litigation and 

Claims Records.’’ The system of records 

is also being retitled to reflect its proper 

categorization as an OPM Internal 

system of records. The modifications 

will expand the range of information 

covered to include not only litigation 

and claims matters, but also all other 

matters worked on by Office of General 

Counsel (OGC) staff, including, but not 

limited to, legal advisory work for OPM 

programs, the Office of the Director, and 

other Federal Government agencies, as 

well as records created or received in 

the course of the office’s work on legal 

issues on behalf of the agency. 

Accordingly, the system name and 

number, system purposes, categories of 

individuals, categories of records, and 

routine uses are being substantially 

revised. Additionally, OPM is taking 

this opportunity to make minor and 

editorial changes and updates 

throughout the notice. 

DATES: Please submit comments on or 

before November 6, 2024. This new 

system is effective upon today’s 

publication in the Federal Register, 

with the exception of new or modified 

routine uses, which are effective 

November 12, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit written 

comments by one of the following 

methods:

instructions for submitting comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OGC is 

revising this system of records to 

encompass the full range of matters on 

which OGC works that are collected and 

maintained in OGC’s matter 

management and tracking system. 

Changes and updates are being made 

throughout the notice, with the most 

substantial changes being that the 

System Name and Number will change 

to ‘‘OPM/Internal-28, Litigation, 

Advisory, and Matter Management 

Records’’ and the Purpose(s) of the 

System, Categories of Individuals, 

Categories of Records, and Routine Uses 

sections will be modified to reflect the 

full scope of matters on which OGC 

works and the activities associated with 

such work. In addition, OPM is taking 

the opportunity to make minor and 

editorial changes and updates 

throughout the notice. 

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), 

OPM has provided a report of this
