 Department of Energy Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
 AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, DOE.
 ACTION: Notice of modified system of records.
 SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is modifying the systems of records listed in this notice to incorporate two new routine uses related to the breach of personally identifiable information (PII) pursuant to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-17-12. The first routine use deals with the breach of FERC's records, and the second addresses the disclosure of FERC's records to assist other agencies in their efforts to respond to a breach of their own records.
 DATES: Please submit comments on or before July 11, 2022. These new routine uses are effective July 11, 2022.
 ADDRESSES: Any person interested in commenting on the establishment of these Privacy Act Breach Routine Uses may do so by submitting comments electronically to: 
                        *Privacy@ferc.gov*
                         (include a reference to “Privacy Act Breach Routine Uses” in the subject line of the message.)
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mittal Desai, Chief Information Officer & Senior Agency Official for Privacy, Office of the Executive Director, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, (202) 502-6432.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 3, 2017, the Office of Management and Budget issued Memorandum 17-12, 
                    *Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information,*
                     to the heads of all executive departments and agencies. Among other things, this memorandum requires the addition of routine uses to ensure that agencies are able to disclose records or information in their systems of records in response to an actual or suspected breach of its own records or to assist other agencies in their efforts to respond to a breach of their own records. FERC is, therefore, proposing the addition of two new routine uses. Unless this or other published notice expressly provides otherwise, these two routines uses apply to all FERC Privacy Act system of records listed in this notice. These routine uses supplement but do not replace any routine uses that are separately published in the specific individual System of Records Notice (SORN). These proposed routine uses are compatible with the purpose for which each of the records or information was collected. SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER: First, the systems of records to be modified by including the two new routine uses described in this Notice are set forth below. As these two routine uses are additional new routine uses, please refer to the specific individual SORN for other routine uses unchanged by this notice. Second, please refer to the specific individual SORN for additional governing elements unchanged by this notice. Finally, please note that FERC SORNs omitted from this table have already incorporated the two new routine uses described in this notice. SORN No.
