The modification adds a new category of records maintained in the system and a new method of retrieving the records in the system.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    BPD proposes to modify our system of records entitled Controlled Access Security System (Treasury/BPD.004) to revise the “Categories of Records” to include biographic and biometric information. The records in this system cover BPD employees, employees of contractors and service companies, and official visitors. We control and verify access to our facilities. As part of the access control, we may obtain and use biographic information (name, addresses, date of birth, Social Security Number) and biometric information (fingerprints, digital color photograph, height, weight, hair/eye color) concerning individuals. We also propose to revise “Retrievability” to state that records in this system can be retrieved by the biographic and biometric information. BPD last published its systems of records in the                     **Federal Register**                     in their entirety on July 23, 2008, at 73 FR 42904.                

We have submitted the report of an altered system of records to the Office of Management and Budget and to Congress, as required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) and Appendix I to OMB Circular A-130, “Federal Agency Responsibilities for Maintaining Records About Individuals.”

BPD proposes to amend its system of records number Treasury/BPD.004 as follows:
