# AGENCY:

Office of Communications and Outreach, Department of Education. 

# ACTION:

Notice of an altered system of records. 

# SUMMARY:

                        In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (Privacy Act), we publish this notice to amend the system of records entitled “Presidential Scholars Program Files and PSAonline Application System” (18-06-03) to reflect the fact that the general support system for the                               ( print page 61437)                            “PSAonline” application system has changed from a contractor site to the U.S. Department of Education's Network (EDNet). This change in the host of the online system will increase the security of the information contained in this system of records. More specifically, we are amending the system of records, last published in the                         **Federal Register**                         on December 3, 2003 (68 FR 67782), in the following ways: (1) By listing the Office of Chief Information Officer as the central system location. (2) By updating the sections on storage and safeguards to reflect current retention and safety measures. (3) By adding an appendix listing additional system locations.                     

# DATES:

The amendments in this notice are effective on October 24, 2005.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Introduction 

                    The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) requires the Department to publish in the                     **Federal Register**                     this notice of an altered system of records maintained by the Department. The Department's regulations implementing the Privacy Act are contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in 34 CFR part 5b.                 

The Privacy Act applies to information about individuals that contains individually identifiable information that is retrieved by a unique identifier associated with each individual, such as a name or social security number. The information about each individual is called a “record” and the system, whether manual or computer-based, is called a “system of records.” 

                    The Privacy Act requires each agency to publish a notice of new or altered systems of records in the                     **Federal Register**                    . Each agency also must submit reports to the Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the Chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and the Chair of the House Committee on Government Reform whenever the agency publishes a new system of records or makes a significant change to an established system of records. Minor changes to an established system of records, such as the amendments to the Presidential Scholars Program Files and PSAonline Application System, do not require an agency to prepare a report.
