Policies and practices for storing, retrieving, accessing, retaining, 
and disposing of records in the system:

closed; another personal identifier of person about whom a referral is 
made; or by OCC employee name or identification number for the employee 
assigned to a particular matter.

limited to those personnel whose official duties require access. Access 
to electronic systems is restricted to authorized personnel who are 
issued non-transferrable access codes and passwords.

Retention and disposal:

Notification procedure:
    This system of records contains records that are exempt from the 
notification, access and contest requirements pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 
552a(k)(2). Individuals seeking notification and access to any non-
exempt record contained in this system of records, or seeking to 
contest its content, may inquire in writing in accordance with

through the mail must establish his or her identity by providing a 
signature and an address as well as one other identifier bearing the

license or other official document). An individual seeking notification 
in person must establish his or her identity by providing proof in the 
form of a single official document bearing a photograph (such as a 
passport or identification badge) or two items of identification that 
bear both a name and a signature.
    Alternatively, identity may be established by providing a notarized 
statement, swearing or affirming to an individual's identify, and to 
the fact that the individual understands the penalties provided in 5 
U.S.C. 552a(i)(3) for requesting or obtaining information under false 
pretenses.
    Additional documentation establishing identity or qualification for 
notification may be required such as in an instance where a legal
