BILLING CODE 7590–01–M

NUCLEAR REGULATORY

COMMISSION

Privacy Act of 1974, as Amended;

Revisions to Existing System of

Records

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory

Commission.

ACTION: Proposed revisions to an

existing system of records.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

Privacy Act of 1974, as amended

(Privacy Act), the Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC) is issuing public

notice of its intent to modify an existing

system of records (system), NRC–3,

‘‘Enforcement Actions Against

Individuals—NRC,’’ to expand the

Categories of Individuals Covered and

the Categories of Records Maintained in

the system, to add one new routine use,

and to revise two existing routine uses.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The revised system of

records will become effective without

further notice on July 22, 1996, unless

comments received on or before that

date cause a contrary decision. If

changes are made based on NRC’s

review of comments received, NRC will

publish a new final notice.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the

Secretary of the Commission, U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

Washington, DC 20555–0001, Attention:

Docketing and Services Branch. Hand

deliver comments to 11555 Rockville

Pike, Rockville, Maryland, between 7:30

am and 4:15 pm Federal workdays.

Copies of comments may be examined,

or copied for a fee, at the NRC Public

Document Room at 2120 L Street, NW.,

Lower Level, Washington, DC.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jona

L. Souder, Freedom of Information/

Local Public Document Room Branch,

Division of Freedom of Information and

Publications Services, Office of

Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission, Washington, DC 20555–

0001, telephone: 301–415–7170.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC

is proposing to amend the system notice

for NRC–3, ‘‘Enforcement Actions

Against Individuals—NRC,’’ to add

‘‘individuals involved in NRC-licensed

activities who have been the subject of

correspondence indicating that they are

being, or have been, considered for

enforcement action’’ as a new category

of individuals covered by the system.

NRC–3 currently covers only those

individuals who have actually been

subject to NRC enforcement actions. In

addition, while the current categories of

records in the system include Letters of

Reprimand, NRC–3 does not include

other letters such as those concerning

matters that are being or have been

considered for individual enforcement

action and those that reflect on an

individual’s performance concerning a

particular matter. These letters, which

are necessary in deciding whether

enforcement action should be taken

against an individual, determining

whether repetitive performance

problems are occurring, and tracking

actions considered and taken, are being

added to the categories of records

maintained in the system.

Existing routine use b. is being

amended to include several additional

means of making certain information

routinely available to the public in an

effort to deter future violations of NRC

regulations.

Existing routine use e. is being

redesignated f. and is being revised to

include routine use 5. from the Prefatory

Statement of General Routine Uses

available to all NRC systems of records

to permit disclosures to a Congressional

office in response to its inquiry made at

the request of the subject individual.

A new routine use e. permitting

disclosures to the National Archives and

Records Administration and the General

Services Administration for records

management inspections conducted

under 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906 is being

added to the system.

A report on the proposed revisions to

this system of records, required by 5

U.S.C. 552a(r) and the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB)

Circular No. A–130, is being sent to the

Committee on Governmental Affairs,

U.S. Senate; the Committee on

Government Reform and Oversight, U.S.

House of Representatives; and OMB.

Accordingly, the NRC proposes to

amend NRC–3 in its entirety to read as

follows:
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 113 / Tuesday, June 11, 1996 / Notices 29579

NRC–3

Individuals—NRC.

Enforcement, NRC, 11555 Rockville

Office of the General Counsel, NRC,

11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville,

Maryland.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE

SYSTEM:

Individuals involved in NRC-licensed

for enforcement action or have been

considered. Also included are responses

documents directly related to those

actions and letters that have been

issued. Files are arranged numerically

by Individual Action (IA) number,

which is assigned as individual

enforcement actions are issued. In

instances where only letters are issued,

these letters also receive IA numbers.

The system includes a computerized

database from which information is

retrieved by names of the individuals

subject to the action and IA numbers.

records without the consent of the

subject individual if the disclosure is

following routine uses:

requests from the Congress;

association, or other professional

organization performing similar

functions, including certification of

individuals licensed by NRC or

Agreement States to perform specified

licensing activity;

public health and safety, information in

this system of records, such as

enforcement actions and hearing

proceedings, may be disclosed to a
