the Kona Coast and Maui County nearLanai waters, Kalohi Channel, and 

Pailolo Channel. Research would also 

occur in Southeast Alaska and 

Kachemak Bay area when platforms 

become available. The permit is valid

An environmental assessment (EA) 

was prepared analyzing the effects of 

the permitted activities on the human 

environment in compliance with the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). Based on 

the analyses in the EA, NMFS 

determined that issuance of the permit 

would not significantly impact the 

quality of the human environment and 

that preparation of an environmental 

impact statement was not required. That 

determination is documented in a 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI), signed on November 8, 2011. 

As required by the ESA, issuance of 

this permit was based on a finding that 

such permit: (1) Was applied for in good 

faith; (2) will not operate to the 

disadvantage of such endangered 

species; and (3) is consistent with the 

purposes and policies set forth in 

section 2 of the ESA.

purpose of notifying separating eligible 

Reservists of their right to apply for 

Veteran’s Group Life Insurance coverage 

under the Veterans Benefits 

Improvement Act of 1996 (38 U.S.C. 

1968). 

c. To register eligible veterans and 

their dependents for DVA programs. 

d. Providing identification of former 

Uniformed Service personnel and 

survivor’s financial benefit data to DVA 

for the purpose of identifying military 

retired pay and survivor benefit 

payments for use in the administration 

of the DVA’s Compensation and Pension 

program (38 U.S.C. 5106). The 

information is to be used to process all 

DVA award actions more efficiently, 

reduce subsequent overpayment 

collection actions, and minimize 

erroneous payments. 

e. To conduct computer matching 

programs regulated by the Privacy Act 

of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a), for 

the purpose of: 

(1) Providing full identification of 

active duty Uniformed Service 

personnel, including full time National 

Guard/Reserve support personnel, for 

use in the administration of DVA’s 

Compensation and Pension benefit 

program. The information is used to 

determine continued eligibility for DVA 

disability compensation to recipients

benefits can be adjusted or terminated 

as required and steps taken by DVA to 

collect any resulting over payment (38 

U.S.C. 5304(c)). 

(2) Providing identification of reserve 

duty, including full time support 

National Guard/Reserve Armed Forces 

personnel, to the DVA, for the purpose 

of deducting reserve time served from 

any DVA disability compensation paid 

or waiver of VA benefit. The law (10

reserve pay and DVA compensation for 

the same time period, however, it does 

permit waiver of DVA compensation to 

draw reserve pay. 

f. To provide identifying Uniformed 

Service personnel data to the DVA for 

the purpose of notifying such personnel 

of information relating to educational 

assistance as required by the Veterans

the purpose of: 

(1) Exchanging civil service and 

Reserve personnel data to identify those 

individuals of the Reserve forces who 

are employed by the Federal 

government in a civilian position. The 

purpose of the match is to identify those 

particular individuals occupying critical 

positions as civilians and cannot be 

released for extended active duty in the 

event of mobilization. Employing 

Federal agencies are informed of the 

reserve status of those affected 

personnel so that a choice of 

terminating the position or the reserve 

assignment can be made by the 

individual concerned. The authority for 

conducting the computer match is 

contained in E.O. 11190, Providing for 

the Screening of the Ready Reserve of 

the Armed Forces.

individuals for the purpose of 

establishing parentage; establishing, 

setting the amount of, modifying, or 

enforcing child support obligations; or 

enforcing child custody or visitation 

orders; and for conducting computer 

matching as authorized by E.O. 12953 to 

facilitate the enforcement of child 

support owed by delinquent obligors

and the National Institutes of Mental 

Health, DHHS, for the purpose of 

conducting studies concerned with the 

health and well being of Uniformed 

Services personnel or veterans, to 

include family members.

programs regulated by the Privacy Act 

of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a), for 

the Public Assistance Reporting 

Information System (PARIS) for the 

purpose of determining continued 

eligibility and help eliminate fraud and 

abuse in benefit programs by identifying 

individuals who are receiving Federal 

compensation or pension payments and 

also are receiving payments pursuant to 

Federal benefit programs being 

administered by the States. 

5. To the Social Security 

Administration (SSA): 

a. To the Office of Research and 

Statistics for the purpose of: 

(1) Conducting statistical analyses of 

impact of military service and use of GI 

Bill benefits on long term earnings. 

(2) Obtaining current earnings data on 

individuals who have voluntarily left 

military service or DoD civil 

employment so that analytical 

personnel studies regarding pay, 

retention and benefits may be 

conducted. 

Note 3: Earnings data obtained from the

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

In addition to those disclosures 

generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 

552a(b) of the Privacy Act of 1974, these 

records may specifically be disclosed 

outside the DoD as a routine use 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as 

follows: 

1. To the Department of Veterans 

Affairs (DVA): 

a. To provide Uniformed Service 

personnel and pay data for present and 

former Uniformed Service personnel for 

the purpose of evaluating use of 

veterans’ benefits, validating benefit 

eligibility and maintaining the health 

and well being of veterans and their 

family members. 

b. To provide identifying Armed 

Service personnel data to the DVA and 

its insurance program contractor for the 

purpose of notifying separating eligible 

Reservists of their right to apply for 

Veteran’s Group Life Insurance coverage 

under the Veterans Benefits 

Improvement Act of 1996 (38 U.S.C. 

1968). 

c. To register eligible veterans and 

their dependents for DVA programs. 

d. Providing identification of former 

Uniformed Service personnel and 

survivor’s financial benefit data to DVA 

for the purpose of identifying military 

retired pay and survivor benefit 

payments for use in the administration 

of the DVA’s Compensation and Pension 

program (38 U.S.C. 5106). The 

information is to be used to process all 

DVA award actions more efficiently, 

reduce subsequent overpayment 

collection actions, and minimize 

erroneous payments. 

e. To conduct computer matching 

programs regulated by the Privacy Act 

of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a), for 

the purpose of: 

(1) Providing full identification of 

active duty Uniformed Service 

personnel, including full time National 

Guard/Reserve support personnel, for 

use in the administration of DVA’s 

Compensation and Pension benefit 

program. The information is used to 

determine continued eligibility for DVA 

disability compensation to recipients 

who have returned to active duty so that 

benefits can be adjusted or terminated 

as required and steps taken by DVA to 

collect any resulting over payment (38 

U.S.C. 5304(c)). 

(2) Providing identification of reserve 

duty, including full time support 

National Guard/Reserve Armed Forces 

personnel, to the DVA, for the purpose 

of deducting reserve time served from 

any DVA disability compensation paid 

or waiver of VA benefit. The law (10 

U.S.C. 12316) prohibits receipt of 

reserve pay and DVA compensation for 

the same time period, however, it does 

permit waiver of DVA compensation to 

draw reserve pay. 

f. To provide identifying Uniformed 

Service personnel data to the DVA for 

the purpose of notifying such personnel 

of information relating to educational 

assistance as required by the Veterans 

Programs Enhancement Act of 1998 (38 

U.S.C. 3011 and 3034).

retirement deductions and any other 

information necessary for those 

management functions required by law 

(Pub.L. 83–598, 84–356, 86–724, 94–455 

and 5 U.S.C. 1302, 2951, 3301, 3372, 

4118, 8347). 

b. To conduct computer matching 

programs regulated by the Privacy Act 

of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a) for 

the purpose of: 

(1) Exchanging civil service and 

Reserve personnel data to identify those 

individuals of the Reserve forces who 

are employed by the Federal 

government in a civilian position. The 

purpose of the match is to identify those 

particular individuals occupying critical 

positions as civilians and cannot be 

released for extended active duty in the 

event of mobilization. Employing 

Federal agencies are informed of the 

reserve status of those affected 

personnel so that a choice of 

terminating the position or the reserve 

assignment can be made by the 

individual concerned. The authority for 

conducting the computer match is 

contained in E.O. 11190, Providing for 

the Screening of the Ready Reserve of 

the Armed Forces.
