PURPOSE(S):

The purpose of the system of records

is to provide a single central facility

within the Department of Defense to

assess manpower trends, support

personnel and readiness functions, to

perform longitudinal statistical

analyses, identify current and former

DoD civilian and military personnel for

purposes of detecting fraud and abuse of

pay and benefit programs, to register

current and former DoD civilian and

military personnel and their authorized

dependents for purposes of obtaining

medical examination, treatment or other

benefits to which they are qualified, and

to collect debts owed to the United

States Government and state and local

governments.

Information will be used by agency

officials and employees, or authorized

contractors, and other DoD Components

in the preparation of the histories of

human chemical or biological testing or

exposure; to conduct scientific studies

or medical follow-up programs; to

respond to Congressional and Executive

branch inquiries; and to provide data or

documentation relevant to the testing or

exposure of individuals

All records in this record system are

subject to use in authorized computer

matching programs within the

Department of Defense and with other

Federal agencies or non-Federal

agencies as regulated by the Privacy Act

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

Military drug test records will be

maintained and used to conduct

longitudinal, statistical, and analytical

studies and computing demographic

reports on military personnel. No

personal identifiers will be included in

the demographic data reports. All

requests for Service-specific drug testing

demographic data will be approved by

the Service designated drug testing

program office. All requests for DoDwide drug testing demographic data will

be approved by the DoD Coordinator for

Drug Enforcement Policy and Support,

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, these records or

information contained therein 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 Veteran

Affairs (DVA):

a. To provide military personnel and

pay data for present and former military

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 military

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).

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 104 / Wednesday, May 30, 2001 / Notices 29297

c. To register eligible veterans and

their dependents for DVA programs.

d. 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 military 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 military personnel and

financial data to the Veterans Benefits

Administration, DVA for the purpose of

determining initial eligibility and any

changes in eligibility status to insure

proper payment of benefits for GI Bill

education and training benefits by the

DVA under the Montgomery GI Bill

(Title 10 U.S.C., Chapter 1606—Selected

Reserve and Title 38 U.S.C., Chapter

30—Active Duty). The administrative

responsibilities designated to both

agencies by the law require that data be

exchanged in administering the

programs.

(3) Providing identification of reserve

duty, including full-time support

National Guard/Reserve military

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.

(4) Providing identification of former

active duty military personnel who

received separation payments to the

DVA for the purpose of deducting such

repayment from any DVA disability

compensation paid. The law requires

recoupment of severance payments

before DVA disability compensation can

be paid (10 U.S.C. 1174).

(5) Providing identification of former

military 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 provide identifying military

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).

2. To the Office of Personnel

Management (OPM):

a. Consisting of personnel/

employment/financial data for the

purpose of carrying out OPM’s

management functions. Records

disclosed concern pay, benefits,

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

financial information on certain military

retirees, who are also civilian employees

of the Federal government, for the

purpose of identifying those individuals

subject to a limitation on the amount of

military retired pay they can receive

under the Dual Compensation Act (5

U.S.C. 5532), and to permit adjustments

of military retired pay by the Defense

Finance and Accounting Service and to

take steps to recoup excess of that

permitted under the dual compensation

and pay cap restrictions.

(2) Exchanging personnel and

financial data on civil service

annuitants (including disability

annuitants under age 60) who are

reemployed by DoD to insure that

annuities of DoD reemployed annuitants

are terminated where applicable, and

salaries are correctly offset where

applicable as required by law (5 U.S.C.

8331, 8344, 8401 and 8468).

(3) Exchanging personnel and

financial data to identify individuals

who are improperly receiving military

retired pay and credit for military

service in their civil service annuities,

or annuities based on the ‘guaranteed

minimum’ disability formula. The

match will identify and/or prevent

erroneous payments under the Civil

Service Retirement Act (CSRA) 5 U.S.C.

8331 and the Federal Employees’

Retirement System Act (FERSA) 5

U.S.C. 8411. DoD’s legal authority for

monitoring retired pay is 10 U.S.C.

1401.

(4) Exchanging civil service and

Reserve military 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

facilitate the enforcement of child

support owed by delinquent obligors

allow State Child Support Enforcement

agencies to commence wage

withholding or other enforcement

actions against the obligors.

not disclosed when it would contravene U.S.

national policy or security interests (42

U.S.C. 653(e)).
