[FRL–10023–06–OMS] 

Privacy Act of 1974; System of 

Records 

AGENCY: Office of Mission Support, 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of 

records. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency’s (EPA or Agency), 

Office of Mission Support (OMS) is 

giving notice that it proposes to modify 

a system of records pursuant to the 

provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974. 

The Integrated Grants Management 

System (IGMS) is being modified to 

update and modernize the grants 

management suite. These updates 

include amending the name to 

Integrated Grants Management System 

(IGMS)/Next Generation Grants System 

(NGGS) and informing the public that 

the grants management module 

originally in IGMS Lotus Notes is now 

in NGGS, which is a modern platform 

employing Java/Oracle technologies. 

IGMS and NGGS are computer systems 

that the Agency uses to process grant 

applications and issue grants to 

recipients. The Agency will also use 

IGMS (without NGGS) to process 

interagency agreements, which are 

assistance agreements between Federal 

agencies. This System of Records Notice 

(SORN) modification updates all SORN 

sections. 

DATES: Persons wishing to comment on 

this system of records notice must do so 

by July 6, 2021. New routine uses for 

this modified system of records will be 

effective July 6, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMS is 

modifying the IGMS system of records 

to modernize the grants management 

suite. These updates include 

modernizing the grants module in 

NGGS that was originally in IGMS, 

while maintaining the interagency 

agreements functionality in IGMS. IGMS 

and NGGS are computer systems that 

the Agency uses to process grant 

applications and issue grants to 

recipients. As a result, the processing of 

grants may involve retrieval of 

information from both IGMS and NGGS. 

The Agency will use IGMS alone to 

process interagency agreements and 

thus will only retrieve information from 

IGMS for this purpose. 

SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER: 

Integrated Grants Management System 

(IGMS)/Next Generation Grants System 

(NGGS), EPA–53. 

SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: 

Unclassified.

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM: 

EPA uses IGMS and NGGS to manage 

grants in response to solicitations issued 

by EPA program offices. EPA uses IGMS 

alone to process interagency 

agreements. 

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY

SYSTEM: 

EPA employees, non-EPA Federal 

government personnel, State or local 

government personnel. 

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: 

EPA uses IGMS and NGGS to collect 

and maintain information on applicants 

for EPA grants. This includes recipient 

organization names, names of grant 

applicants, phone numbers, emails, and 

addresses. EPA also uses IGMS to 

collect and maintain information on 

applicants for EPA interagency 

agreements. This includes recipient 

organization names, names of 

interagency agreement applicants, 

phone numbers, email, and addresses. 

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES: 

The sources of information come from 

recipient organizations, Federal, State or 

local agencies. This information is 

collected from grant and interagency 

agreement applicants for the EPA grants 

and interagency agreements programs 

within the agency. 

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

The routine uses below are both 

related to and compatible with the 

original purpose for which the 

information was collected. The 

following general routine uses apply to 

this system (73 FR 2245): 

A. Disclosure for Law Enforcement 

Purposes: Information may be disclosed 

to the appropriate Federal, State, local, 

tribal, or foreign agency responsible for 

investigating, prosecuting, enforcing, or 

implementing a statute, rule, regulation, 

or order, if the information is relevant 

to a violation or potential violation of 

civil or criminal law or regulation 

within the jurisdiction of the receiving 

entity. 

B. Disclosure Incident to Requesting 

Information: Information may be 

disclosed to any source from which 

additional information is requested (to 

the extent necessary to identify the 

individual, inform the source of the 

purpose of the request, and to identify 

the type of information requested), 

when necessary to obtain information 

relevant to an agency decision 

concerning retention of an employee or 

other personnel action (other than 

hiring), retention of a security clearance, 

the letting of a contract, or the issuance 

or retention of a grant, or other benefit. 

C. Disclosure to Requesting Agency: 

Disclosure may be made to a Federal, 

State, local, foreign, or tribal or other 

public authority of the fact that this 

system of records contains information 

relevant to the retention of an employee, 

the retention of a security clearance, the 

letting of a contract, or the issuance or 

retention of a license, grant, or other 

benefit. The other agency or licensing 

organization may then make a request 

supported by the written consent of the 

individual for the entire record if it so 

chooses. No disclosure will be made 

unless the information has been 

determined to be sufficiently reliable to 

support a referral to another office 

within the agency or to another Federal 

agency for criminal, civil, 

administrative, personnel, or regulatory 

action. 

D. Disclosure to Office of Management 

and Budget: Information may be 

disclosed to the Office of Management 

and Budget at any stage in the 

legislative coordination and clearance 

process in connection with private relief 

legislation as set forth in OMB Circular 

No. A–19. 

E. Disclosure to Congressional Offices: 

Information may be disclosed to a 

congressional office from the record of 

an individual in response to an inquiry 

from the congressional office made at 

the request of the individual. 

F. Disclosure to Department of Justice: 

Information may be disclosed to the 

Department of Justice, or in a 

proceeding before a court, adjudicative 

body, or other administrative body 

before which the Agency is authorized 

to appear, when: 

1. The Agency, or any component 

thereof; 

2. Any employee of the Agency in his 

or her official capacity; 

3. Any employee of the Agency in his 

or her individual capacity where the 

Department of Justice or the Agency 

have agreed to represent the employee; 

or 

4. The United States, if the Agency 

determines that litigation is likely to 

affect the Agency or any of its 

components, 

Is a party to litigation or has an 

interest in such litigation, and the use 

of such records by the Department of 

Justice or the Agency is deemed by the 

Agency to be relevant and necessary to 

the litigation provided, however, that in 

each case it has been determined that 

the disclosure is compatible with the 

purpose for which the records were 

collected. 

G. Disclosure to the National 

Archives: Information may be disclosed 

to the National Archives and Records 

Administration in records management 

inspections. 

H. Disclosure to Contractors, 

Grantees, and Others: Information may 

be disclosed to contractors, grantees, 

consultants, or volunteers performing or 

working on a contract, service, grant, 

cooperative agreement, job, or other

in the performance of their duties or 

activities for the Agency. When 

appropriate, recipients will be required 

to comply with the requirements of the 

Privacy Act of 1974 as provided in 5 

U.S.C. 552a(m). 

K. Disclosure in Connection With 

Litigation: Information from this system 

of records may be disclosed in 

connection with litigation or settlement 

discussions regarding claims by or 

against the Agency, including public 

filing with a court, to the extent that 

disclosure of the information is relevant 

and necessary to the litigation or 

discussions and except where court 

orders are otherwise required under 

section (b)(11) of the Privacy Act of 

1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(11). 

The two routine uses below (L and M)
