The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is creating a new system of records for contact information for members of the public requesting information and non-Federal providers' of information (e.g. academic researchers'). Information will be collected from individuals under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 301, Departmental Regulations, and 15 U.S.C. 1512, Powers and duties of Department [of Commerce]. This record system is necessary to facilitate provision of information to the requesting public and to post researchers' contact information on applicable Web sites.

Privacy Act of 1974, New System of Records

AGENCY: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration U.S. Department 
of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Privacy Act system of records: COMMERCE/NOAA-11, 
contact information for members of the public requesting or providing 
information related to NOAA's mission.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice announces the Department of Commerce's 
(Department's) proposal for a new system of records under the Privacy 
Act. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is 
creating a new system of records for contact information for members of 
the public requesting information and non-Federal providers' of 
information (e.g. academic researchers'). Information will be collected 
from individuals under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 301, Departmental 
Regulations, and 15 U.S.C. 1512, Powers and duties of Department [of 
Commerce]. This record system is necessary to facilitate provision of 
information to the requesting public and to post researchers' contact 
information on applicable Web sites.

DATES: To be considered, written comments must be submitted on or 
before November 9, 2015. Unless comments are received, the new system 
of records will become effective as proposed on the date of publication 
of a subsequent notice in the Federal Register.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Sarah Brabson, NOAA Office of the 
Chief Information Officer, Room 9856, 1315 East-West Highway, SSMC3, 
Silver Spring, MD 20910.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sarah Brabson, NOAA Office of the 
Chief Information Officer, Room 9856, 1315 East-West Highway, Silver 
Spring, MD 20910.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NOAA is creating this system of records 
notice to replace the former COMMERCE/NOAA-11, NOAA Mailing Lists, 
which is no longer in existence. This system of records notice will 
encompass all NOAA systems which collect, store and/or disseminate 
contact information for members of the public requesting or providing 
information related to NOAA's mission. Information collections would be 
requested from individuals under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 301, 
Departmental Regulations and 15 U.S.C. 1512, Powers and duties of 
Department. The collection of information is necessary to facilitate 
communication with, and share mission-related information with, the 
public. NOAA would collect information from individuals in order to 
provide and acquire NOAA mission-related data. The resulting system of 
records, as amended, appears below.
