Abstract: Partnerships between the U.S. Government and the private sector at times necessitate the sharing of classified information. The State, Local Tribal and Private Sector (SLTPS) facilitates this sharing by processing security clearances for “appropriate representatives of sector coordinating counsels, sector information sharing and analysis organizations [(ISAOs),] owners and operators of critical infrastructure, and any other person that the Secretary determines appropriate.” 6 U.S.C. § 150. In order to begin this process of approving an applicant to participate in the clearance program, the applicant’s employment information and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is collected. Their association/SCC membership or employment information is reviewed for approval, and their PII is input into e-QIP, the Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) secure portal for investigation processing. The U.S. Government is authorized to ask for this information under Sections 201 and 229 of the Homeland Security Act (Pub. L 107-296, 6 U.S.C. §§ 121, 150), and Executive Orders 12968, 13526, 13549, 13636, and 13691 which authorize the collection of this information.
