DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

Internal Revenue Service


Privacy Act of 1974, as Amended

AGENCY: Internal Revenue Service, Treasury.

ACTION: Notice of proposed alteration of a Privacy Act system of 
records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 
1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of the Treasury, 
Internal Revenue Service (IRS), gives notice of proposed alteration of 
a system of records entitled Treasury/IRS 34.013, Identification Media 
Files System for Employees and Others Issued IRS Identification.

DATES: Comments must be received no later than March 13, 2015. The 
proposed altered system will become effective March 23, 2015, unless 
the IRS receives comments which cause reconsideration of this action.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to the Office of Privacy, 
Governmental Liaison and Disclosure, Internal Revenue Service, 1111 
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20224. Comments will be 
available for inspection and copying in the IRS Freedom of Information 
Reading Room (Room 1621) at the above address. The telephone number for 
the Reading Room is (202) 317-4997 (not a toll-free number).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Silverman, Management and 
Program Analyst, IRS Office of Privacy, Governmental Liaison and 
Disclosure, (202) 317-6452 (not a toll-free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: IRS is proposing to alter the Privacy Act 
system of records entitled Treasury/IRS 34.013, Identification Media 
Files System for Employees and Others Issued IRS Identification, to 
include the additional purpose of using the physical access control 
system to determine the most efficient way for IRS to manage office 
space.
    IRS employees present their Federal Standard Homeland Security 
Policy Directive (HSPD)-12 Personal Identity Verification (PIV Card) to 
a card reader to enter IRS facilities. The card reader scans the 
employee's identity credentials and transmits the data to a server that 
verifies the employee's authorization to enter a facility.
    This entrance information will be aggregated to protect employee 
privacy and will then be used to enable IRS to more efficiently 
determine what space it needs for optimum use of resources. A notice 
describing this system of records was most recently published at 77 FR 
155, August 10, 2012. IRS Proposes to alter the system to include the 
collection of this data.

    Dated: January 26, 2015.
Helen Goff Foster,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Privacy, Transparency, and Records.
