SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In accordance with the Privacy Act of
1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS)
Transportation Security Information
(TSA) proposes to update and reissue a
current DHS system of records titled,
‘‘DHS/TSA–001 Transportation Security
Enforcement Record System (TSERS)
System of Records.’’
As a result of a biennial review of this
system, records have been updated
within the routine uses. The statute
citation in routine use P. has been
corrected to 49 U.S.C. § 46301(h).
TSA’s mission is to protect the
nation’s transportation systems to
ensure freedom of movement for people
and commerce. To achieve this mission,
TSA is required to develop and adapt its
security programs to respond to
evolving threats to transportation
security.
Consistent with DHS’ informationsharing mission, information stored in
the DHS/TSA–001 TSERS may be
shared with other DHS components that
have a need to know the information to
carry out their national security, law
enforcement, immigration, intelligence,
or other homeland security functions. In
addition, information may be shared
with appropriate federal, state, local,
tribal, territorial, foreign, or
international government agencies
consistent with the routine uses set
forth in this system of records notice.
Portions of this system are exempt
under 5 U.S.C. §§ 552a(k)(1) and (k)(2).
Portions of the system pertaining to
investigations or prosecutions of
violations of criminal law are exempt
under 5 U.S.C. § 552a(j)(2). These
exemptions are reflected in the final
rule published on August 4, 2006 in 71
FR 44223.

This updated system will be included
in DHS’ inventory of record systems.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act embodies fair
information practice principles in a
statutory framework governing the
means by which Federal Government
agencies collect, maintain, use, and
disseminate individuals’ records. The
Privacy Act applies to information that
is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’
A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any
records under the control of an agency
for which information is retrieved by
the name of an individual or by some
identifying number, symbol, or other
identifying particular assigned to the
individual. In the Privacy Act, an
individual is defined to encompass U.S.
citizens and lawful permanent
residents. As a matter of policy, DHS
extends administrative Privacy Act
protections to all individuals where
systems of records maintain information
on U.S. citizens, lawful permanent
residents, and visitors.
Below is the description of the DHS/
TSA–001 TSERS System of Records.
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r),
DHS has provided a report of this
system of records to the Office of
Management and Budget and to

notification, access, and amendment
procedures of the Privacy Act because it
is a law enforcement system. However,
DHS/TSA will consider individual
requests to determine whether or not

the Chief Privacy Officer and Chief
Freedom of Information Act Officer,
Department of Homeland Security, 245
Murray Drive SW., Building 410, STOP–
0655, Washington, DC 20528.
When seeking records about yourself

Departmental system of records, your
request must conform with the Privacy
Act regulations set forth in 6 CFR part
5. You must first verify your identity,
meaning that you must provide your full
name, current address, and date and
place of birth. You must sign your

perjury as a substitute for notarization.
While no specific form is required, you
may obtain forms for this purpose from
the Chief Privacy Officer and Chief
Freedom of Information Act Officer,
http://www.dhs.gov/foia or 1–866–431–

Department would have information on
you;
• Identify which component(s) of the
Department you believe may have the
information about you;
• Specify when you believe the
records would have been created; and
• Provide any other information that
will help the FOIA staff determine
which DHS component agency may
have responsive records; and
If your request is seeking records
pertaining to another living individual,
you must include a statement from that
individual certifying his/her agreement
for you to access his/her records.
Without the above information, the
component(s) may not be able to
conduct an effective search, and your
request may be denied due to lack of
specificity or lack of compliance with
applicable regulations.
