additional 12-month period from March 29,

1997, to March 28, 1998.

(2) I estimate that there are approximately

4,000 nationals of Liberia (and aliens having

no nationality who last habitually resided in

Liberia) who have been granted Temporary

Protected Status and who are eligible for reregistration.

(3) In order to maintain current registration

for Temporary Protected Status, a national of

Liberia (or an alien having no nationality

who last habitually resided in Liberia) who

received a grant of TPS during the initial

period of designation from March 27, 1991,

to March 27, 1992, must comply with the reregistration requirements contained in 8 CFR

244.17, formerly 8 CFR 240.17, which are

described in pertinent part in paragraphs (4)

and (5) of this notice.

(4) A national of Liberia (or an alien having

no nationality who last habitually resided in

Liberia) who previously has been granted

TPS must re-register by filing a new

Application for Temporary Protection Status,

Form I–821, together with an Application for

Employment Authorization, Form I–765,

within the 30-day period beginning on April

7, 1997 and ending on May 6, 1997 in order

to be eligible for Temporary Protected Status

during the period from March 29, 1997, to

March 28, 1998. Late re-registration

applications will be allowed pursuant to 8

CFR 244.17(c), formerly 8 CFR 240.17(c).

(5) There is no fee for Form I–821 filed as

part of the re-registration application. The fee

prescribed in 8 CFR 103.7(b)(1), currently

seventy dollars ($70), will be charged for

Form I–765, filed by an alien requesting

employment authorization pursuant to the

provisions of paragraph (4) of this notice

(unless submitted with a fee waiver request

properly documented in accordance with 8

CFR 244.20, formerly 8 CFR 240.20). An alien

who does not request employment

authorization must nonetheless file Form I–

821 together with Form I–765, but in such

cases both Form I–821 and Form I–765

should be submitted without fee.

(6) Pursuant to section 244(b)(3)(A) of the

Act, the Attorney General will review, at

least 60 days before March 28, 1998, the

designation of Liberia under the TPS program

to determine whether the conditions for

designation continue to be met. Notice of that

determination, including the basis for the

determination, will be published in the

Federal Register. If there is an extension of

designation, late initial registration for TSP

shall be allowed only pursuant to the

requirements of 8 CFR 244.2(f)(2), formerly 8

CFR 240.2(f)(2). Any such future

determination will apply to the more recent

Liberian TPS registrants under the TPS

redesignation as well as the re-registrants for

the TPS extension.

Notice of Redesignation of Liberia

Under the Temporary Protected Status

Program

By the authority vested in me as

Attorney General under section 244 of

the Immigration and Nationality Act, as

amended, (8 U.S.C. 1254), and pursuant

to the discretion vested in the Attorney

General under subsection 244(b)(1) of

the Act, I have consulted with the

appropriate agencies of the U.S.

Government concerning redesignation

of Liberia under the Temporary

Protected Status program. From these

consultations I find that after renewed

conflict in Liberia during the first half

of 1996, and ongoing insecurity, there

exist extraordinary and temporary

conditions that prevent aliens who are

nationals of Liberia (and aliens having

no nationality who last habitually

resided in Liberia) from returning to

Liberia in safety.

In consideration of these

consultations and other relevant factors,

and in the exercise of my discretion, I

order redesignation of Liberia as

follows:

(1) Liberia is redesignated under section

244(b)(1)(C) of the Act. Nationals of Liberia

(and aliens having no nationality who last

habitually resided in Liberia) who have

‘‘continuously resided in the United States’’

since June 1, 1996, and have been

‘‘continuously physically present’’ since

April 7, 1997 may apply for Temporary

Protected Status within the registration

period which begins April 7, 1997 and ends

on October 6, 1997.

(2) I estimate that there are no more than

5,000 nationals of Liberia (and aliens having

no nationality who last habitually resided in

Liberia) who are currently in nonimmigrant

or unlawful status (in addition to the earlier

Liberian TPS registrants) and are, therefore,

eligible for Temporary Protected Status under

this redesignation.

(3) Except as specifically provided in this

notice, application for TPS by nationals of

Liberia (and aliens having no nationality who

last habitually resided in Liberia) must be

filed pursuant to the provisions of 8 CFR part

244, formerly 8 CFR 240. Aliens who wish

to apply for TPS must file an Application for

Temporary Protected Status, Form I–821,

together with an Application for Employment

Authorization, Form I–765, during the

registration period, which begins on April 7,

1997 and will remain in effect until October

6, 1997.

(4) A fee of fifty dollars ($50) will be

charged for each Application for Temporary

Protected Status, Form I–821, filed during the

registration period.

(5) The fee prescribed in 8 CFR 103.7(b)(1),

which is currently seventy dollars ($70), will

be charged for each Application for

Employment Authorization Form I–765, filed

by an alien requesting employment

authorization. An alien who does not request

employment authorization must nevertheless

file Form I–765, together with Form I–821,

for informational purposes, but in such cases

Form I–765 should be submitted without fee.

Both Forms I–821 and I–765 may be

submitted without the required fees if a

properly documented fee waiver request in

accordance with 8 CFR 244.20, formerly 8

CFR 240.20, accompanies the forms.

(6) Information concerning the TPS

redesignation program for nationals of

Liberia (and aliens having no nationally who

last habitually resided in Liberia) will be

available at local Immigration and

Naturalization Service offices upon

publication of this notice.

Dated: April 1, 1997.

Attorney General.

BILLING CODE 4410–01–M

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Office of the Secretary

Privacy Act of 1974; Publication of Two

New Systems of Records;

Amendments to an Existing System

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, Labor.

ACTION: Notice of two new systems of

records; amendments to an existing

system of records.

SUMMARY: The Privacy Act of 1974

requires that each agency publish notice

of all of the systems of records that it

maintains. This document adds two

new systems of records to this

Department’s current systems of

records. With the addition of these two

new systems of records, the Department

will be maintaining 144 systems of

records. This document also proposes to

amend the Routine Use Category for one

of the Department’s existing systems of

records. The proposed amended system

will permit the Department to provide

important information to state

unemployment insurance agencies in

order to facilitate the processing of

unemployment insurance claims for

Department of Labor (DOL) employees.

Finally, various administrative (nonsubstantive) amendments to this same

existing system are being made at this

time.

DATES: Persons wishing to comment on

this new system of records and on the

proposed new Routine Use may do so

by May 19, 1997. Unless there is a

further notice in the Federal Register,

the two new systems of records, and the

proposed amendment to the existing

system, will become effective on June 2,

1997. The remaining amendments to

DOL/OASAM–1 are administrative

(non-substantive), and therefore, will

become effective on April 7, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be

mailed or delivered to Robert A.

Shapiro, Associate Solicitor, Division of

Legislation and Legal Counsel, 200

Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N–

2428, Washington, DC 20210.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant

to section three of the Privacy Act of

1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)), hereinafter

referred to as the Act, the Department

hereby publishes notice of two new

systems of records currently maintained

pursuant to the Act. This document

supplements this Department’s last

publication in full of all of its Privacy

Act systems of records. The document

also proposes to amend the Routine Use

Category for one of the Department’s

existing systems of records. On

September 23, 1993, in Volume 58 at

page 49548 of the Federal Register, we

published a notice containing 138

systems of records which were

maintained under the Act. Subsequent

publications of new systems were made

on April 15, 1994 (59 FR 18156)(two

new systems); on May 10, 1995 (60 FR

24897) (one new system); and on June

15, 1995 (60 FR 31495)(one new

system). The new system published

herein will increase the total number of

systems to 144.

1. The first new system published

herein is entitled DOL/BLS–17, National

Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1996

Database, which contains a random

sample of the general population who

were ages 12–17 on December 31, 1995,

with an over-representation of disabled

students. This system will serve a

variety of policy-related research

interests concerning the school-to-work

transition and the labor market

problems of youth.

2. The second new system published

herein is entitled DOL/OCFO–2,

Department of Labor Accounting and

Related Systems. This new system has

been developed by and is controlled by

the Office of the Chief Financial Officer.

This new system is an accounts payable

and an accounts receivable system.

3. The Department also hereby

proposes to amend an existing system of

records, DOL/OASAM–1, Attendance,

Leave and Payroll File, so that a new

Routine Use can be established. The

new Routine Use will permit the

Department to provide certain important

identified information to state

unemployment insurance agencies,

without the need for individual

authorizations, so that DOL employees

can have their unemployment insurance

claims processed.

4. This document makes various

administrative (non-substantive)

amendments to DOL/OASAM–1 at this

time. Since these administrative

amendments are non-substantive, public

comment is not required.

Universal Routine Uses

In its September 23, 1993 publication,

the Department gave notice of eleven

paragraphs containing routine uses

which apply to all of its systems of

records, except for DOL/OASAM–5 and

DOL/OASAM–7. These eleven

paragraphs were presented in the

General Prefatory Statement for that

document, and it appeared at pages

49554–49555 of Volume 58 of the

Federal Register. Those eleven

paragraphs were republished in an April

15, 1994 document in order to correct

grammatical mistakes in the September

23, 1993 version. In both the May 10,

1995 and June 15, 1995 publication, the

General Prefatory Statement was

republished as a convenience to the

reader of the document. We are again

republishing the General Prefatory

Statement as a convenience to the

reader. At this time we are making a

grammatical correction to paragraph 7.

of these routine uses by substituting the

word ‘‘any’’ in place of the word ‘‘this.’’

The public, the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB), and the Congress are

invited to submit written comments on

the proposed amendment in this

document. A report on these new

systems, and on the first proposed

amendment to DOL/OASAM–1, has

been provided to OMB and to the

Congress as required by OMB Circular

A–130, Revised, and 5 U.S.C. 552a(r).

The administrative (non-substantive)

amendments do not have to be provided

to OMB and to the Congress.

General Prefatory Statement

The following routine uses apply to

and are incorporated by reference into

each system of records published below

unless the text of a particular notice of

a system of records indicates otherwise.

These routine uses do not apply to DOL/

OASAM–5, Rehabilitation and

Counseling File, nor to DOL/OASAM–7,

Employee Medical Records.

1. It shall be a routine use of the

records in this system of records to

disclose them to the Department of

Justice when: (a) The agency or any

component thereof; or (b) any employee

of the agency in his or her official

capacity where the Department of

Justice has agreed to represent the

employee; or (c) the United States

Government, is a party to litigation or

has an interest in such litigation, and by

careful review, the agency determines

that the records are both relevant and

necessary to the litigation and the use of

such records by the Department of

Justice is therefore deemed by the

agency to be for a purpose that is

compatible with the purpose for which

the agency collected the records.

2. It shall be a routine use of the

records in this system of records to

disclose them in a proceeding before a

court or adjudicative body, when: (a)

The agency or any component thereof;

or (b) any employee of the agency in his

or her official capacity; or (c) any

employee of the agency in his or her

individual capacity where the agency

has agreed to represent the employee; or

(d) the United States Government, is a

party to litigation or has an interest in

such litigation, and by careful review,

the agency determines that the records

are both relevant and necessary to the

litigation and the use of such records is

therefore deemed by the agency to be for

a purpose that is compatible with the

purpose for which the agency collected

the records.

3. When a record on its face, or in

conjunction with other records,

indicates a violation or potential

violation of law, whether civil, criminal

or regulatory in nature, and whether

arising by general statute or particular

program statute, or by regulation, rule,

or order issued pursuant thereto,

disclosure may be made to the

appropriate agency, whether Federal,

foreign, State, local, or tribal, or other

public authority responsible for

enforcing, investigating or prosecuting

such violation or charged with enforcing

or implementing the statute, or rule,

regulation, or order issued pursuant

thereto, if the information disclosed is

relevant to any enforcement, regulatory,

investigative or prosecutive

responsibility of the receiving entity,

and by careful review, the agency

determines that the records are both

relevant and necessary to the litigation

and the use of such records is therefore

deemed by the agency to be for a

purpose that is compatible with the

purpose for which the agency collected

the records.

4. A record from this system of

records may be disclosed to a Member

of Congress or to a Congressional staff

member in response to an inquiry of the

Congressional office made at the written

request of the constituent about whom

the record is maintained.

5. Records from this system of records

employees, or volunteers who have been

engaged to assist the agency in the
16612 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 66 / Monday, April 7, 1997 / Notices

performance of a contract, service, grant,

cooperative agreement or other activity

related to this system of records and

in order to perform the activity.

Recipients shall be required to comply

with the requirements of the Privacy Act

of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a; see

also 5 U.S.C. 552a(m).

7. The name and current address of an

individual may be disclosed from any

system of records to the parent locator

service of the Department of HHS or to

other authorized persons defined by

Pub. L. 93–647 for the purpose of

locating a parent who is not paying

required child support.

8. Disclosure may be made to any

source from which information is

requested in the course of a law

enforcement or grievance investigation,

or in the course of an investigation

concerning retention of an employee or

other personnel action, the retention of

a security clearance, the letting of a

contract, the retention of a grant, or the

retention of any other benefit, to the

extent necessary to identify the

individual, inform the source of the

purpose(s) of the request, and identify

the type of information requested.

9. Disclosure may be made to a

Federal, State, local, foreign, or tribal or

other public authority of the fact that

this system of records contains

information relevant to the hiring or

retention of an employee, the granting

or retention of a security clearance, the

letting of a contract, a suspension or

debarment determination or the

issuance or retention of a license, grant,

or other benefit.

10. A record from any system of

records set forth below may be disclosed

to the Office of Management and Budget

in connection with the review of private

relief, legislative coordination and

clearance process.

payments to individuals, exclusive of

salaries and wages, based upon prior

entry into the systems of the official

commitment and obligation of

government funds. When an individual

is to repay funds advanced as a loan or

scholarship, etc., the records will be

used to establish a receivable record and

to track repayment status. In event of an

overpayment to an individual, the

record is used to establish a receivable

record for recovery of the amount

claimed. The records are also used

internally to develop reports to the

Internal Revenue Service and applicable

state and local taxing officials of taxable

income. This is a Department-wide

notice of payment and collection

activities at all locations listed under

system locations.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:

A. Transmittal of the records to the

U.S. Treasury to effect issuance of

collection agencies for the purpose of

collecting or compromising a debt

existing in this system.

C. Information may be forwarded to

the Department of Justice as prescribed

in the Joint Federal Claims Collection

Standards (4 CFR Ch. II) for the purpose

of determining the feasibility of

enforced collection, by referring the

cases to the Department of Justice for

litigation.

D. Pursuant to sections 5 and 10 of the

Debt Collection Act of 1982, information

relating to the implementation of the

Debt Collection Act of 1982 may be

disclosed to other Federal Agencies to

effect salary or administrative offsets.

E. Information contained in the

system of records may be disclosed to

the Internal Revenue Service to obtain

taxpayer mailing addresses for the

purpose of locating such taxpayer to

collect, compromise, or write off a

Federal claim against the taxpayer.

F. Information may be disclosed to the

Internal Revenue Service concerning the

discharge of an indebtedness owed by

an individual.

H. Information will be disclosed:

1. To credit card companies for billing

purposes;

2. To other Federal agencies for travel

management purposes;

3. To airlines, hotels, car rental

companies and other travel related

companies for the purpose of serving

the traveler. This information will

generally include the name, phone

number, addresses, charge card

information and itineraries.

DISCLOSURE TO CONSUMER REPORTING

AGENCIES:

The amount, status, and history of

overdue debts; the name and address,

taxpayer identification number (SSN),

U.S.C. 552a(b)(12) to consumer

reporting agencies as defined by section

603(f) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act

(15 U.S.C. 1681a(f)), in accordance with

section 3(d)(4)(A)(ii) of the Federal

Claims Collection Act of 1966, as

amended (31 U.S.C. 3711(f)) for the

purpose of encouraging the repayment

of an overdue debt.

Note: Debts incurred by use of the official

travel charge card are personal and the

charge card company may report account

information to credit collection and reporting

agencies.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORING,

RETRIEVING, ACCESSING, RETAINING, AND

DISPOSING OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:

STORAGE:

Paper records in file cabinets.

Computer records within a computer, its

attached equipment or some magnetic

form.

RETRIEVABILITY:

This varies according to the particular

operating accounting system within the

Operating Division, Agency and

Regional Office. Usually the hard copy

document is filed by name within

accounting classification. Computer

records may be indexed by social

security number and voucher number or

on any field in the record.

SAFEGUARDS:

Records stored in lockable file

cabinets or secured rooms.

Computerized records protected by

password system.

RETENTION AND DISPOSAL:

Records are purged from automated

files once the accounting purpose has

been served; printed copy and manual

documents are retained and disposed of

in accord with General Accounting

Office principles and standards as

authorized by the National Archives and

Records Administration. Generally, on

the accounting side, information is kept

until at least the employee has left the

Department, and perhaps longer, until

all existing activity for the employee is

closed out. Generally, on the payroll

side, the information stays on the

Master Employee Record until the

retirement has been reconciled for the

year in which the employee has left.
