PRIVACY ACT NOTICE
5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(3) requires that each agency that maintains a system of records provide each individual from whom the agency solicits information with
the following information.
AUTHORITY FOR REQUESTING INFORMATION
7 U.S.C. Sections 8351 to 8353, and 16 U.S.C. 667, authorizes officers, agents, and employees of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA),
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Wildlife Services (WS) to conduct a program of wildlife services and to enter into agreements with
States, local jurisdictions, individuals, and public and private agencies, organizations, and institutions for the purpose of conducting such services.
NATURE OF YOUR DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
Disclosure of information solicited by USDA, APHIS, Wildlife Services is voluntary.
PRINCIPLE PURPOSE FOR WHICH THE INFORMATION IS SOLICITED
Information is solicited from you for the purpose of executing and implementing agreements for control of wildlife damage.
ROUTINE USES WHICH MAY BE MADE OF THE INFORMATION
(1) To cooperative Federal, State, Tribal, and local government officials, employees, or contractors and other parties as necessary to carry out the
program; and other parties engaged to assist in administering the program. Such contractors and other parties will be bound by the nondisclosure
provisions of the Privacy Act. This routine use assists the agency in carrying out the program, and thus is compatible with the purpose for which the
records are created and maintained;
(2) To the appropriate agency, whether Federal, State, local, Tribal, or foreign, charged with responsibility of investigating or prosecuting a violation of
law or of enforcing, implementing, or complying with a statute, rule, regulation, or order issued pursuant thereto, of any record within this system when
information available indicates a violation or potential violation of law, whether civil, criminal, or regulatory in nature, and either arising by general statute
or particular program statute, or by rule, regulation, or court order issued pursuant thereto;
(3) To the Department of Justice when the agency, or any component thereof, or any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity, or any
employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity where the Department of Justice has agreed to represent the employee, or the United States, in
litigation, where the agency determines that litigation is likely to affect the agency or any of its components, is a party to litigation or has an interest in
such litigation, and the use of such records by the Department of Justice is deemed by the agency to be relevant and necessary to the litigation; provided,
however, that in each case, the agency determines that disclosure of the records to the Department of Justice is a use of the information contained in the
records that is compatible with the purpose for which the records were collected;
(4) For use in a proceeding before a court or adjudicative body before which the agency is authorized to appear, when the agency, or any component
thereof, or any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity, or any employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity where the agency
has agreed to represent the employee, or the United States, where the agency determines that litigation is likely to affect the agency or any of its
components, is a party to litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and the agency determines that use of such records is relevant and necessary to
the litigation; provided, however, that in each case, the agency determines that disclosure of the records to the court is a use of the information contained
in the records that is compatible with the purpose for which the records were collected;
(5) To appropriate agencies, entities, and persons when the agency suspects or has confirmed that the security or confidentiality of information in the
system of records has been compromised; the agency has determined that as a result of the suspected or confirmed compromise, there is a risk of harm
to economic or property interests, a risk of identity theft or fraud, or a risk of harm to the security of integrity of this system or other systems or programs
(whether maintained by the agency or another agency or entity) that rely upon the compromised information; and the disclosure made to such agencies,
entities, and persons is reasonably necessary to assist in connection with the agency’s efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed compromise and
prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm;
(6) To USDA contractors, partner agency employee or contractors, or private industry employed to identify patterns, trends, or anomalies indicative of
fraud, waste, or abuse;
(7) To land management agencies, such as the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, relating to wildlife damage on
grazing allotments;
(8) To consumer reporting agencies in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 3711(e);
(9) To Federal, State, Tribal, and local regulatory agencies and their employees and contractors who collaborate with Wildlife Services in implementation
of, or agencies that regulate, wildlife management projects or programs, or who have an interest in, or regulate, animal or public health, or national
security;
(10) To Federal or State Government-level representatives of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, in compliance with the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) mandate in 7 U.S.C. 136(f, and i thru l), of the location on a cooperator’s property where certain regulated
pesticide devices are deployed or regulated pesticides are applied; and
(11) To the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) or to the General Services Administration for records management inspections
conducted under 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906.
