are: (1) Referral to other Federal, State, local or foreign investigative, prosecuting, or enforcement
agencies; (2) Disclosure to the U.S. Department of Justice for use in litigation; (3) Disclosure to a court or

Agriculture (USDA) determines such referral is appropriate for collecting the debtor's account as provided
for in U.S. Government contracts with the collection agencies executed pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3718; (6)
Where prior collection efforts have failed, the USDA will refer to the U.S. Department of the Treasury
information from this system of records concerning past due legally enforceable debts for offset against
tax refunds that may become due the debtors for the tax year in which referral is made in accordance with
Internal Revenue Service regulations at 26 CFR 301.6402-6T, offset of past-due Legally Enforceable
Debt Against Overpayment, and under the authority contained in 31 U.S.C. 3720A; (7) Information

agencies designated by the Secretary of the Treasury for the purpose of offsetting Federal payments to
collect delinquent debts, owed to the Federal Government. Records will be matched by Taxpayer
Identification Number (TIN) and name. For an Individual, the TIN is the social security number. For a
