15544 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 57 / Friday, March 24, 1995 / Notices

the Federal Register at 58 FR 68629 on

December 28, 1993.

DMDC will use personal data from the

record system identified as S322.10

DMDC, entitled ‘Defense Manpower

Data Center Data Base,’ last published in

the Federal Register at 59 FR 55462 on

November 7, 1994.

Agencies must publish routine uses

pursuant to subsection (b)(3) of the

Privacy Act for those systems of records

from which they intend to disclose this

information. Otherwise they must

obtain the written consent of the record

subjects to disclose outside the agency.

Moreover, the routine use, with respect

to the disclosure of a record, must be

compatible with the purpose for which

it was collected.

E. Description of computer matching

program: The AFRH, as the source

agency, will provide DMDC with a

magnetic computer tape which contains

the name, SSN and date of birth of each

resident. Upon receipt of the computer

tape file of residents, DMDC will

perform a computer match using all

nine digits of the SSN of the AFRH file

against a DMDC computer database of

personnel/employment/pay records of

all uniformed services officers and

enlisted personnel who served on active

duty or retired, including individuals

receiving any Federal compensation,

pension or annuity from the VA or

OPM. Matching records (hits) based on

the SSN, will produce the member’s

military retired or retainer pay, civil

service annuity and VA compensation

and pension. The match results will be

furnished to AFRH. AFRH is

responsible for verifying and

determining that the data on the DMDC

reply tape file are consistent with

AFRH’s source file and for resolving any

discrepancies or inconsistencies on an

individual basis. AFRH will also be

responsible for making final

determinations as to positive

identification and the amount of Federal

payment received by the resident as a

result of the match.

The AFRH will provide a magnetic

computer tape in a format defined by

DMDC on a semiannual basis. This file

will contain the name and SSN of

approximately 2,700 residents whose

records DMDC will verify.

The DMDC computer database file

contains approximately 10 million

records of active duty and retired

military members, including the Reserve

and Guard; the VA compensation and

pension records on military retirees; and

the OPM compensation and annuity

records on military retirees.

F. Inclusive dates of the matching

program: This computer matching

program is subject to review by the

Office of Management and Budget and

Congress. If no objections are raised by

either, and the mandatory 30 day public

notice period for comment has expired

for this Federal Register notice with no

significant adverse public comments in

receipt resulting in a contrary

determination, then this computer

matching program becomes effective

and the respective agencies may begin

the exchange of data 30 days after the

date of this published notice at a

mutually agreeable time and will be

repeated annually. Under no

circumstances shall the matching

program be implemented before the 30

day public notice period for comment

has elapsed as this time period cannot

be waived. By agreement between AFRH

and DMDC, the matching program will

be in effect and continue for 18 months

with an option to renew for 12

additional months unless one of the

parties to the agreement advises the

other by written request to terminate or

modify the agreement.

G. Address for receipt of public

comments or inquiries: Director,

Defense Privacy Office, Crystal Mall 4,

Room 920, 1941 Jefferson Davis
