35880 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 138 / Tuesday, July 21, 2009 / Notices 

SAFEGUARDS: 

Information in this system is 

safeguarded in accordance with 

applicable laws, rules, and policies, 

including the DHS Information 

Technology Security Program 

Handbook. The CTS security protocols 

will meet applicable NIST Security 

Standards, from Authentication to 

Certification and Accreditation. Records 

in the system will be maintained in a 

secure, password-protected electronic 

system that will utilize security 

hardware and software to include 

multiple firewalls, active intruder 

detection, and role-based access 

controls. All records are protected from 

unauthorized access through 

appropriate administrative, physical, 

and technical safeguards. These 

safeguards include restricting access to 

authorized personnel who have a needto-know, using locks, and password 

protection identification features. DHS 

file areas are locked after normal duty 

hours and the facilities are protected 

from the outside by security personnel. 

RETENTION AND DISPOSAL: 

CTS handles both information 

collected directly from the individual 

and information collected from DHS 

components and other agencies. DHS is 

working on a retention schedule with its 

Senior Records Officer for information 

collected directly from the individual. It 

is anticipated that the retention period 

for these records will be up to seven 

years. To the extent information is 

collected from other systems, data is 

retained in accordance with the record 

retention requirements of those systems. 

SYSTEM MANAGER AND ADDRESS: 

The System Manager is the Program 

Manager, DHS CTS, U.S. Department of 

Homeland Security, Washington, DC 

20528. 

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURE: 

Individuals seeking notification of 

and access to any record contained in 

this system of records, or seeking to 

contest its content, may submit a 

request in writing to the Headquarters or 

component’s FOIA Officer, whose 

contact information can be found at 

http://www.dhs.gov/foia under 

‘‘contacts.’’ If an individual believes 

more than one component maintains 

Privacy Act records concerning him or 

her, the individual may submit the 

request to Chief Privacy Officer, 

Department of Homeland Security, 

Washington, DC 20528. 

When seeking records about yourself 

from this system of records or any other 

Departmental system of records, your 

request must conform with the Privacy 

Act regulations set forth in 6 CFR Part 

5. You must first verify your identity, 

meaning that you must provide your full 

name, current address and date and 

place of birth. You must sign your 

request, and your signature must either 

be notarized or submitted under 28 

U.S.C. 1746, a law that permits 

statements to be made under penalty of 

perjury as a substitute for notarization. 

While no specific form is required, you 

may obtain forms for this purpose from 

the Director, Disclosure and FOIA, 

http://www.dhs.gov/foia or 1–866–431– 

0486. In addition you should provide 

the following: 

• An explanation of why you believe 

the Department would have information 

on you, 

• Identify which component(s) of the 

Department you believe may have the 

information about you, 

• Specify when you believe the 

records would have been created, 

• Provide any other information that 

will help the FOIA staff determine 

which DHS component agency may 

have responsive records, 

• If your request is seeking records 

pertaining to another living individual, 

you must include a statement from that 

individual certifying his/her agreement 

for you to access his/her records. 

Without this bulleted information the 

component(s) may not be able to 

conduct an effective search, and your 

request may be denied due to lack of 

specificity or lack of compliance with 

applicable regulations. 

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES: 

See ‘‘Notification procedure’’ above. 

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES: 

See ‘‘Notification procedure’’ above. 

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES: 

Any person, including citizens and 

representatives of Federal, State or local 

governments; businesses; and 

industries. Any Federal system with 

records appropriate and relevant to the 

redress process, including the Intranet 

Quorum system. 

EXEMPTIONS CLAIMED FOR THE SYSTEM: 

No exemption shall be asserted with 

respect to information submitted by and 

collected from the individual or the 

individual’s representative in the course 

of any redress process associated with 

this System of Records. 

This system, however, may contain 

records or information recompiled from 

or created from information contained 

in other systems of records, which are 

exempt from certain provisions of the 

Privacy Act. For these records or 

information only, in accordance with 5 

U.S.C. 552a(j)(2), (k)(1), (k)(2), and 

(k)(5), DHS will also claim the original 

exemption for these records or 

information from subsections (c)(3) and 

(4); (d)(1), (2), (3), and (4); (e)(1), (2), (3), 

(4)(G) through (I), (5), and (8); (f); and (g) 

of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, 

as necessary and appropriate to protect 

such information. Such exempt records 

or information may be law enforcement 

or national security investigation 

records, law enforcement activity and 

encounter records, or terrorist screening 

records. 

These records could come from 

various DHS systems, such as the 

Treasury Enforcement Communications 

System (TECS) and the Transportation 

Security Information System (TSIS), or 

from third agency systems. DHS, after 

conferring with the appropriate 

component or agency, may waive 

applicable exemptions in appropriate 

circumstances and where it would not 

appear to interfere with or adversely 

affect the law enforcement or national 

security purposes of the systems from 

which the information is recompiled or 

in which it is contained. As required 

under the Privacy Act, DHS will issue 

a rule to describe more fully the needs 

and requirements for taking such 

exemptions on such information. 

Dated: July 14, 2009.

Chief Privacy Officer, Department of 

Homeland Security.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated July 

2, 2009, the President issued a major 

disaster declaration under the authority 

of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief 

and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 

U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ‘‘Stafford Act’’), 

as follows: 

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Illinois resulting 

from severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes 

during the period of May 8–9, 2009, is of 

sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant 

a major disaster declaration under the Robert 

T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the 

‘‘Stafford Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such 

a major disaster exists in the State of Illinois. 

In order to provide Federal assistance, you 

are hereby authorized to allocate from funds 

available for these purposes such amounts as 

you find necessary for Federal disaster 

assistance and administrative expenses. 

You are authorized to provide Public 

Assistance in the designated areas, Hazard 

Mitigation throughout the State and any 

other forms of assistance under the Stafford 

Act that you deem appropriate. Consistent 

with the requirement that Federal assistance 

is supplemental, any Federal funds provided 

under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance 

and Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75 

percent of the total eligible costs. If Other 

Needs Assistance under Section 408 of the 

Stafford Act is later warranted, Federal 

funding under that program will also be 

limited to 75 percent of the total eligible 

costs. 

Further, you are authorized to make 

changes to this declaration to the extent 

allowable under the Stafford Act.
