OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
Privacy Act of 1974: New System of Records
AGENCY: U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
ACTION: Notice of a new system of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management is proposing to add a new
system of records to its inventory of record systems subject to the
Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as amended. This action is
necessary to meet the requirements of the Privacy Act to publish in the
Federal Register notice of the existence and character of records
maintained by the agency (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)). The Integrity Assurance
Officer Control Files (Internal 20) system of records has been
operational since February 2005 without incident. Previously, OPM has
relied on preexisting Privacy Act system of records notices for the
collection and maintenance of these records. In an effort to increase
transparency, OPM is publishing a separate notice for this system.
DATES: This addition will be effective without further notice on May
27, 2014, unless we receive comments that result in a contrary
determination.
ADDRESSES: Send written comments to the Program Manager for the Freedom
of Information and Privacy Act Office, Federal Investigative Services,
U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 1137 Branchton Road, PO Box 618,
Boyers, Pennsylvania 16018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Program Manager, Freedom of
Information and Privacy Act Office, [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974,
5 U.S.C. 552a, the Office of Personnel Management Federal Investigative
Services (OPM-FIS) proposes to establish a new system of records titled
Integrity Assurance Officer Control Files (Internal 20). This system of
records allows OPM-FIS to collect, analyze, coordinate, and report
investigations into allegations of misconduct or negligence by OPM
Federal and contractor staff. The information in this system documents
investigations into allegations or concerns of the following possible
misconduct: (1) Fraud against the Government; (2) Theft of Government
property; (3) Misuse of Government property and IT systems; and (4)
Improper personal conduct. This information is reported to other OPM
components or Federal agencies for criminal, administrative, or any
other actions deemed appropriate. Additionally, the OPM is issuing a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking concurrent with this system of records
notice elsewhere in the Federal Register in order to claim exemptions
from certain requirements of the Privacy Act.
U.S. Office of Personnel Management.

Director.
