SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Introduction

    The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)) requires NASA to publish in 
the Federal Register a notice of new system of records maintained by 
NASA. NASA's regulations implementing the Privacy Act are contained in 
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in 14 CFR part 1212.
    The Privacy Act applies to information about an individual that is 
maintained in a system of records from which individually identifying 
information is retrieved by a unique identifier associated with each 
individual, such as a name or social security number. The information 
about each individual is called a ``record,'' and the system, whether 
manual or computer-driven, is called a ``system of records.'' The 
Privacy Act requires each agency to publish a system of records notice 
in the Federal Register and to submit reports to the Administrator of 
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, the Chair of the 
House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, 
and the Chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and 
Governmental Affairs, whenever the agency publishes a new or altered 
system of records.

Background of System of Records

    ADAS is a system of records that will store individually 
identifying information from a variety of individuals who have applied 
for or received grants, contracts, cooperative or other agreements, 
loans, or payments from NASA. These individuals include: Current and 
former employees of NASA; consultants; contractors; grantees; advisory 
committee members or others who have received funds from NASA for 
performing services or have otherwise transacted business with or 
affected NASA.
    Information in this system will be obtained from the following 
systems of records maintained by NASA: Biographical Records for Public 
Affairs (System Number 10BRPA), NASA Foreign National Management System 
(System Number 10FNMS), Integrated Enterprise Management Program 
(IEMP)--Core Financial System (System Number 10IEM1), NASA Education 
Program Evaluation System (System Number 10EDUA), Government Motor 
Vehicle Operators Permit Records (System Number 10GMVP), NASA Guest 
Operations System (System Number 10GOS), Inspector General 
Investigations Case Files (System Number 10IGIC), NASA Personnel and 
Payroll Systems (System Number 10NPPS), Parking and Transit System 
(System Number 10PATS), Security Records System (System Number 10SECR), 
Special Personnel Records (System Number 10SPER), Exchange Records on 
Individuals (System Number 10XROI), Johnson Space Center Exchange 
Activities Records (System Number 72XOPR).
    Information for the ADAS may also be obtained from systems of 
records maintained by other government agencies. All applicable 
provisions of the Privacy Act, including relevant portions of the 
Computer Matching Act, will be observed when obtaining and maintaining 
such records in the ADAS.
    This new system of records notice is being established because it 
will involve the new use of records covered by existing NASA systems of 
records. This new system of records will be used to identify internal 
control weaknesses and to identify system issues to improve methods of 
data modeling and annual audit planning. This system will provide the 
NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) with access to a single 
repository of data that currently resides in many, different NASA 
systems of records. The NASA OIG will conduct data modeling on this 
data, using

[[Page 72746]]

statistical and mathematical techniques, in order to predict anomalies 
indicating suspicious or fraudulent activity.
    Under the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 
Appendix, Inspectors General, including the NASA Inspector General, are 
responsible for conducting, supervising, and coordinating audits and 
investigations, relating to programs and operations of the Federal 
agency for which their office is established. This system of records 
facilitates OIG's performance of this statutory duty.

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
    The Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, 5 U.S.C. Appendix.

PURPOSE(S):
    This system of records is maintained for the general purpose of 
enabling OIG to fulfill the requirements of section (4)(a)(1) and (3) 
of the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, which requires OIG to 
provide policy direction for and to conduct, supervise, and coordinate 
audits and investigations relating to the programs and operations of 
NASA and to conduct, supervise and coordinate activities for the 
purpose of promoting economy and efficiency in the administration of, 
or preventing and detecting fraud and abuse in, the programs and 
operations of NASA. This system is maintained for the purpose of 
improving the efficiency, quality, and accuracy of existing data 
collected by NASA. Records in this system will be used to conduct data 
modeling for indications of fraud, abuse and internal control 
weaknesses concerning NASA programs and operations. The result of that 
data modeling may be used in the conduct of audits, investigations, 
inspections or other activities as necessary to prevent and detect 
waste, fraud and abuse and to promote economy and efficiency in NASA 
programs and operations.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES FOR SUCH USES:
    The NASA OIG may disclose information contained in a record in this 
system of records without the consent of the individual if the

[[Page 72749]]

disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the record was 
collected, under the following routine uses. The NASA OIG may make 
these disclosures on a case-by-case basis or, if it has met the 
applicable requirements of the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection 
Act of 1988, as amended, under a computer matching agreement.
    (1) Responding to the White House, the Office of Management and 
Budget, and other organizations in the Executive Office of the 
President regarding matters inquired of; (2) disclosure to a 
congressional office from the record of an individual in response to a 
written inquiry from the congressional office made at the request of

of identity of persons under investigations; (6) disclosing, as 
necessary, to a contractor, subcontractor, or grantee firm or

and is relevant and necessary in order that the contractor, 
subcontractor, or grantee is able to take administrative or corrective 
action; (7) disclosing to any official (including members of the 
Council of Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) and 
staff and authorized officials of the Department of Justice and Federal 
Bureau of Investigation) charged with the responsibility to conduct 
qualitative assessment reviews of internal safeguards and management 
procedures employed in Office of Inspector General (OIG) operations; 
(8) disclosing to members of the CIGIE for the preparation of reports 
to the President and Congress on the activities of the Inspectors

confidence in the integrity of the OIG investigative process, or to 
demonstrate the accountability of NASA officers, or employees, or other 
individuals covered by this system, unless the Inspector General 
determines that disclosure of the specific information in the context 
of a particular case would constitute an unwarranted invasion of 
personal privacy; (10) disclosing to the news media and public when 
there exists a legitimate public interest (e.g., to provide information 
on events in the criminal process, such as indictments), or when 
necessary for protection from imminent threat to life or property; (11) 
disclosing to any individual or entity when necessary to elicit 
information that will assist an OIG investigation or audit; (12)

students, and others performing or working on a contract, service, 
grant, cooperative agreement, or other assignment for the Federal 
Government, who have a need to know such information in order to 
accomplish an agency function; (14) NASA standard routine uses as set
