BILLING CODE 4000–01–P
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of a modified system of records.
SUMMARY: As required by the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circulars A–108 and A–130, the Department of Energy (DOE or the Department) is publishing notice of a modification to an existing Privacy Act System of Records. DOE proposes to amend system of records DOE–41 Legal Files (Claims, Litigation, Criminal Violations, Patents, and Others). The system is used to settle claims, prepare for litigation, and resolve matters in which the agency is involved or has an interest in. This System of Records Notice (SORN) is being modified to align with new formatting requirements, published by OMB, and to ensure appropriate Privacy Act coverage of business processes and Privacy Act information.
DATES: This modified SORN will become applicable following the end of the public comment period on May 11, 2026 unless comments are received that result in a contrary determination.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to Nicole Sanchez, Chief Privacy Officer, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Rm.
8H–085, Washington, DC 20585, by facsimile at (202) 586–8151, or by email at privacy@hq.doe.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Nicole Sanchez, Chief Privacy Officer, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Rm. 8H– 085, Washington, DC 20585, by facsimile at (202) 586–8151, by email at privacy@hq.doe.gov, or by telephone at
(202) 586–0166.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 9, 2009, DOE published a Compilation of its Privacy Act systems of records, which included system of records DOE–41 Legal Files (Claims, Litigation, Criminal Violations, Patents, and Others). This notice proposes amendments to the system locations section of that system of records by removing the following system locations where DOE–41 is no longer applicable:
Alaska Power Administration, Bartlesville Energy Technology Center, Grand Forks Energy Technology Center, Los Alamos Site Office, and the NNSA Nevada Site Office. In the ‘‘Routine Uses’’ section, this modified notice deletes a previous routine use concerning efforts responding to a suspected or confirmed loss of confidentiality of information as it appears in DOE’s compilation of its Privacy Act systems of records (January 9, 2009) and replaces it with one to assist DOE with responding to a suspected or confirmed breach of its records of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), modeled with language from OMB’s Memorandum M– 17–12, ‘‘Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information’’ (January 3, 2017). Further, this notice adds one new routine use to ensure that DOE may assist another agency or entity in responding to the other agency’s or entity’s confirmed or suspected breach of PII, as appropriate, as aligned with OMB’s Memorandum M–17–12. An administrative change required by the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016 extends the length of time a requestor is permitted to file an appeal under the Privacy Act from 30 to 90 days. Both the ‘‘System Locations’’ and ‘‘Administrative, Technical and Physical Safeguards’’ sections have been modified to reflect the Department’s usage of cloud-based services for records storage. Language throughout the SORN has been updated to align with applicable Federal privacy laws, policies, procedures, and best practices.
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
DOE–41 Legal Files (Claims, Litigation, Criminal Violations, Patents, and Others).
SECURITY CLASSIFICATION:
Unclassified.
SYSTEM LOCATION:
Systems leveraging this SORN may exist in multiple locations. All systems storing records in a cloud-based server are required to use government-approved cloud services and follow National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) security and privacy standards for access and data retention including NIST Special Publication (SP) 800–53. Records maintained in a government-approved cloud server are accessed through secure data centers in the continental United States.
