SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Computer Matching and Privacy 

Protection Act of 1988 (Public Law 

(Pub. L.) 100–503), amended the Privacy 

Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) by describing the 

conditions under which computer 

matching involving the Federal 

government could be performed and 

adding certain protections for persons 

applying for, and receiving, Federal 

benefits. Section 7201 of the Omnibus 

Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. 

L. 101–508) further amended the 

Privacy Act regarding protections for 

such persons. 

The Privacy Act, as amended, 

regulates the use of computer matching 

by Federal agencies when records in a 

system of records are matched with 

other Federal, State, or local government 

records. It requires Federal agencies 

involved in computer matching 

programs to: 

(1) Negotiate written agreements with 

the other agency or agencies 

participating in the matching programs; 

(2) Obtain approval of the matching 

agreement by the Data Integrity Boards 

of the participating Federal agencies; 

(3) Publish notice of the matching 

program in the Federal Register; 

(4) Furnish detailed reports about 

matching programs to Congress and 

OMB; 

(5) Notify applicants and beneficiaries 

that their records are subject to 

matching; and 

(6) Verify match findings before 

reducing, suspending, terminating, or 

denying a person’s benefits or 

payments. 

SSA has taken action to ensure that 

all of its matching programs comply 

with the requirements of the Privacy 

Act, as amended.

PARTICIPATING AGENCIES: 

SSA and RRB 

AUTHORITY FOR CONDUCTING THE MATCHING

PROGRAM: 

The legal authority for SSA to 

conduct this matching activity is 

sections 1144 and 1860D–14 of the 

Social Security Act (Act) (42 U.S.C. 

1320b–14 and 1395w–114). 

PURPOSE(S): 

This matching agreement establishes 

the conditions under which the RRB 

will disclose to SSA information 

necessary to verify an individual’s selfcertification of eligibility for the Extra 

Help with Medicare Prescription Drug 

Plan Costs program (Extra Help). It will 

also enable SSA to identify individuals 

who may qualify for Extra Help as part 

of the agency’s Medicare outreach 

efforts. 

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS: 

The individuals whose information is 

involved in this matching program are 

individuals who self-certify for Extra 

Help or may qualify for Extra Help. SSA 

matches RRB’s information with its 

Medicare Database File, which includes 

claimants, applicants, beneficiaries, 

ineligible spouses and potential 

claimants for Medicare Part A, Medicare 

Part B, Medicare Advantage Part C, 

Medicare Part D and for Medicare Part 

D prescription drug coverage subsidies. 

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS: 

RRB will transmit its annuity 

payment data monthly from its RRB–22 

system of records. The file will consist 

of approximately 600,000 electronic 

records. 

RRB will transmit its Post Entitlement 

System file daily. The number of 

records will differ each day, but consist 

of approximately 3,000 to 4,000 records 

each month. 

RRB will transmit files on all 

Medicare eligible Qualified Railroad 

Retirement Beneficiaries from its RRB– 

20 and RRB–22 systems of records to 

report address changes and subsidy 

changing event information monthly. 

The file will consist of approximately 

520,000 electronic records. The number 

of people who apply for Extra Help 

determines in part the number of 

records matched. 

SSA’s comparison file will consist of 

approximately 90 million records 

obtained from MDB. 

SSA will conduct the match using 

each individual’s Social Security 

number, name, date of birth, RRB claim 

number, and RRB annuity payment 

amount in both RRB and MDB files. 

SYSTEM(S) OF RECORDS: 

RRB will provide SSA with data from 

its RRB–22 system of records, Railroad 

Retirement Survivors and Pension 

Benefits System, last published on 

September 30, 2014 (79 FR 58886), and 

RRB–20 systems of records, Health 

Insurance and Supplementary Medical 

Insurance Enrollment and Premium 

Payment System (Medicare), last 

published on May 15, 2015 (80 FR 

28018). 

SSA will match RRB’s data with its 

Medicare Database (MDB) File, system 

of records No. 60–0321, published on 

July 25, 2006 (71 FR 42159), and 

amended on December 10, 2007 (72 FR 

69723).

Rights Exemption—Ill. Cent. R.R., FD 33182 (STB 

served Oct. 30, 1996). The eastern segment of these 

trackage rights, from Southport Junction to Lampert 

Junction, connects the two sections of Public Belt’s 

main line described in Segment #1 above. The 

western segment of the trackage rights, from East 

Bridge Junction to Southport Junction, is adjacent 

to and north of Public Belt’s main line between 

those points.

FD 32598 (ICC served Nov. 16, 1994). These 

trackage rights are parallel to Public Belt’s main line 

described in Segment #2 above and serve as a

5NOPB Corp. notes that, because it will operate 

as a switching and terminal railroad, it presumably 

would be classified as a Class III carrier in any 

event. 49 CFR 1201(1–1)(d). 

6Because NOPB Corp.’s supplement was filed on 

December 18, that is considered the filing date of 

the verified notice for purposes of calculating the 

effective date of the exemption. In its supplement, 

NOPB Corp. requests that the effective date of the 

March 27, 1978, the Foreign Affairs 

Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998 

(112 Stat. 2681, et seq.; 22 U.S.C. 6501

of Authority No. 236–3 of August 28, 

2000 (and, as appropriate, Delegation of 

Authority No. 257–1 of December 11, 

2015). I have ordered that Public Notice 

of these determinations be published in 

the Federal Register.

and approximately 10.25 miles of 

assigned trackage rights pursuant to a 

Cooperative Endeavor Agreement 

(Agreement) to be entered into by NOPB 

Corp., Public Belt, the City of New 

Orleans (the City), and the Port. On 

December 11, 2017, the Board issued a

milepost equation at the Jefferson/ 

Orleans Parish border where milepost 

J0.0 = milepost 0.26 to the connection 

with CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) at 

milepost 14.2 at Almonaster in New 

Orleans, a distance of approximately 

13.94 miles. 

3. The Burma West Lead in New 

Orleans from milepost 14.2 at 

Almonaster to the end of track at 

milepost 15.3, a distance of

IC Station 120+0.00 (Public Belt 

milepost 3.4) at Nashville Avenue to IC 

Station 175+68.09 (Public Belt milepost

Pacific Fruit Express Yard, Cotton 

Warehouse Yard, Race Yard, French 

Market Station, Pauline Yard, Claiborne 

Yard, France Yard, North Bulk Terminal 

Yard, and South Bulk Terminal Yard. 

Upon completion of the transaction, 

NOPB Corp. will be a Class III switching 

and terminal railroad and will continue 

to provide local and intermediate 

switching service in place of Public 

Belt. 

NOPB Corp. certifies that its projected 

annual revenues as a result of this 

transaction will not exceed those that

revenues will exceed $5 million, on 

October 13, 2017, NOBP Corp. certified 

to the Board that it had complied with 

the requirements of 49 CFR 1150.32(e)

at workplaces of Public Belt employees

offices of the labor unions representing 

Public Belt employees on the same date. 

NOPB Corp. further certifies that the 

Agreement does not include any 

provision limiting NOPB Corp.’s future 

interchange of traffic with any 

connecting carrier. 

The transaction may be consummated 

on or after January 17, 2018, the 

effective date of the exemption (30 days 

after the verified notice of exemption 

was filed).6 If the verified notice
