PRIVACY THRESHOLD ANALYSIS (PTA)
This form serves as the official determination by the DHS Privacy Office to
identify the privacy compliance requirements for all Departmental uses of
personally identifiable information (PII).
A Privacy Threshold Analysis (PTA) serves as the document used to identify
information technology (IT) systems, information collections/forms, technologies,
rulemakings, programs, information sharing arrangements, or pilot projects that involve
PII and other activities that otherwise impact the privacy of individuals as determined by
the Chief Privacy Officer, pursuant to Section 222 of the Homeland Security Act, and to
assess whether there is a need for additional Privacy Compliance Documentation. A PTA
includes a general description of the IT system, information collection, form, technology,
rulemaking, program, pilot project, information sharing arrangement, or other Department
activity and describes what PII is collected (and from whom) and how that information is
used and managed.
Please complete the attached Privacy Threshold Analysis and submit it to your
component Privacy Office. After review by your component Privacy Officer the PTA is sent
to the Department’s Senior Director for Privacy Compliance for action. If you do not have a
component Privacy Office, please send the PTA to the DHS Privacy Office:

Upon receipt from your component Privacy Office, the DHS Privacy Office will review this
form and assess whether any privacy compliance documentation is required. If compliance
documentation is required – such as Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), System of Records
Notice (SORN), Privacy Act Statement, or Computer Matching Agreement (CMA) – the DHS
Privacy Office or component Privacy Office will send you a copy of the relevant compliance
template to complete and return.

DHS Privacy Office Comments:
Please describe rationale for privacy compliance determination above.
USCG is submitting this PTA to discuss the Request for Designation and Exemption of
Oceanographic Research Vessels information collection, which is associated with OMB
Control Number 1625-0014. This data collection is necessary for the designation of
Oceanographic Research Vessels (ORV). According to statute and regulation,
oceanographic vessels may be exempted from the statute and regulations governing the
shipment, discharge, payment and personal outfitting of merchant seamen. An individual
can submit a written request to the Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection (OCMI) seeking a
vessel be designated as an ORV. At a minimum, the following information must be
submitted during the initial request: 1) a detailed description of the vessel, including its
identification number, owner and charterer; 2) a specific operating plan stating precisely
the intended use of the vessel; and 3) any additional information as may be requested by
the OCMI.
There is no specific form associated with this collection. Requests for ORV designation can
be mailed, faxed or electronically submitted via e-mail to the OCMI. The records contain
basic business contact information which may include the name and address of the vessel
owner/operator, if owned/operated by an individual. The records that USCG receives are
maintained in Marine Information for Safety and Law Enforcement (MISLE) database. A
scanned record is uploaded to the vessel-specific file in MISLE.
The DHS Privacy Office agrees that this information collection is privacy-sensitive.
PIA coverage is provided by DHS/USCG/PIA-008 MISLE, which outlines the risks of

capturing information required to support the Coast Guard’s marine safety, security,
environmental protection and law enforcement programs. SORN coverage is not
technically required as the information is retrieved by search using vessel-specific
information. However, DHS/USCG-013 MISLE does provide notice of this type of
information collection.
