DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

28 CFR Part 16

[CPCLO Order No. 008-2016]


Privacy Act of 1974; Implementation

AGENCY: Federal Bureau of Investigation, United States Department of 
Justice.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the Federal 
Bureau of Investigation (FBI), a component of the United States 
Department of Justice (``Department'' or ``DOJ''), has published a 
notice of a new Privacy Act system of records, ``FBI Insider Threat 
Program Records (ITPR),'' JUSTICE/FBI-023. In this notice of proposed 
rulemaking, the FBI proposes to exempt this system from certain 
provisions of the Privacy Act in order to avoid interference with 
efforts to detect, deter, and/or mitigate insider threats to national 
security or to the FBI and its personnel, facilities, resources, and 
activities. For the reasons provided below, the Department proposes to 
amend its Privacy Act regulations by establishing an exemption for 
records in this system from certain provisions of the Privacy Act 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(j) and (k). Public comment is invited.

DATES: Comments must be received by October 19, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Address all comments to the U.S. Department of Justice, 
ATTN: Privacy Analyst, Office of Privacy and Civil Liberties, National 
Place Building, 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Suite 1000, Washington, 
DC 20530-0001 or facsimile 202-307-0693. To ensure proper handling, 
please reference the CPCLO Order No. on your correspondence. You may 
review an electronic version of the proposed rule at http://www.regulations.gov, and you may also comment by using that Web site's 
comment form for this regulation. When submitting comments 
electronically, you must include the CPCLO Order No. in the subject 
box.
    Please note that the Department is requesting that electronic 
comments be submitted before midnight Eastern Daylight Savings Time on 
the day the comment period closes because http://www.regulations.gov 
terminates the public's ability to submit comments at that time. 
Commenters in time zones other than Eastern Time may want to consider 
this so that their electronic comments are received. All comments sent 
via regular or express mail will be considered timely if postmarked on 
the day the comment period closes.
    Posting of Public Comments: Please note that all comments received 
are considered part of the public record and made available for public 
inspection online at http://www.regulations.gov and in the Department's 
public docket. Such information includes personally identifying 
information (such as your name, address, etc.) voluntarily submitted by 
the commenter.
    If you want to submit personally identifying information (such as 
your name, address, etc.) as part of your comment, but do not want it 
to be posted online or made available in the public docket, you must 
include the phrase ``PERSONALLY IDENTIFYING INFORMATION'' in the first 
paragraph of your comment. You must also place all personally 
identifying information you do not want posted online or made available 
in the public docket in the first paragraph of your comment and 
identify what information you want redacted.
    If you want to submit confidential business information as part of 
your comment, but do not want it to be posted online or made available 
in the public docket, you must include the phrase ``CONFIDENTIAL 
BUSINESS INFORMATION'' in the first paragraph of your comment. You must 
also prominently identify confidential business information to be 
redacted within the comment. If a comment has so much confidential 
business information that it cannot be effectively redacted, all or 
part of that comment

[[Page 64093]]

may not be posted online or made available in the public docket.
    Personally identifying information and confidential business 
information identified and located as set forth above will be redacted 
and the comment, in redacted form, will be posted online and placed in 
the Department's public docket file. Please note that the Freedom of 
Information Act applies to all comments received. If you wish to 
inspect the agency's public docket file in person by appointment, 
please see the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT paragraph.

Investigation, Assistant General Counsel, Privacy and Civil Liberties

3000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Presidential Memorandum--National 
Insider Threat Policy and Minimum Standards for Executive Branch 
Insider Threat Programs (Nov. 21, 2012) states that an insider threat 
is the threat that any person with authorized access to any United 
States Government resources, to include personnel, facilities, 
information, equipment, networks or systems, will use her/his 
authorized access, wittingly or unwittingly, to do harm to the security 
of the United States through espionage, terrorism, unauthorized 
disclosure of national security information, or through the loss or 
degradation of departmental resources or capabilities.
    In the Notice section of today's Federal Register, the FBI has 
established a new Privacy Act system of records, ``FBI Insider Threat 
Program Records (ITPR),'' JUSTICE/FBI-023. The system serves as a 
repository for FBI information and for information lawfully received 
from other federal agencies or purchased from private companies and 
permits the comparison of data sets in order to provide a more complete 
picture of potential insider threats.
    In this rulemaking, the FBI proposes to exempt this Privacy Act 
system of records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act in order 
to avoid interference with the responsibilities of the FBI to detect, 
deter, and/or mitigate insider threats as established by federal law 
and policy. For an overview of the Privacy Act, see: https://www.justice.gov/opcl/privacy-act-1974.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    This proposed rule relates to individuals rather than small 
business entities. Pursuant to the requirements of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, therefore, the proposed rule 
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities.

Small Entity Inquiries

    The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) of 
1996, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., requires the FBI to comply with small 
entity requests for information and advice about compliance with 
statutes and regulations within FBI jurisdiction. Any small entity that 
has a question regarding this document may contact the person listed in 
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Persons can obtain further information 
regarding SBREFA on the Small Business Administration's Web page at 
http://www.sba.gov/advo/archive/sum_sbrefa.html.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3507(d), requires 
that the FBI consider the impact of paperwork and other information 
collection burdens imposed on the public. There are no current or new 
information collection requirements associated with this proposed rule. 
The records that are contributed to this system may be provided by 
individuals covered by this system, the FBI, DOJ, and United States 
Government components, other domestic and foreign government entities, 
or purchased from private entities, and sharing of this information 
electronically will not increase the paperwork burden on the public.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995

    Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public 
Law 103-3, 109 Stat. 48, requires Federal agencies to assess the 
effects of certain regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal 
governments, and the private sector. UMRA requires a written statement 
of economic and regulatory alternatives for proposed and final rules 
that contain Federal mandates. A ``Federal mandate'' is a new or 
additional enforceable duty, imposed on any State, local, or tribal 
government, or the private sector. If any Federal mandate causes those 
entities to spend, in aggregate, $100 million or more in any one year, 
the UMRA analysis is required. This proposed rule would not impose 
Federal mandates on any State, local, or tribal government or the 
private sector.

List of Subjects in 28 CFR Part 16

    Administrative Practices and Procedures, Courts, Freedom of 
Information Act, and the Privacy Act.

    Pursuant to the authority vested in the Attorney General by 5 
U.S.C. 552a and delegated to me by Attorney General Order 2940-2008, it 
is proposed to amend 28 CFR part 16 as follows:

PART 16--[AMENDED]

0
1. The authority citation for part 16 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 5 U.S.C. 301, 552, 552a, 552b(g), 553; 18 U.S.C. 
4203(a)(1); 28 U.S.C. 509, 510, 534; 31 U.S.C. 3717, 9701.

Subpart E--Exemption of Records Systems Under the Privacy Act


Sec.  16.96  [AMENDED]

0
2. Amend Sec.  16.96 by adding paragraphs (x) and (y) to read as 
follows:


Sec.  16.96  Exemption of Federal Bureau of Investigation Systems--
limited access.

* * * * *
    (x) The following system of records is exempt from 5 U.S.C. 
552a(c)(3) and (4); (d)(1), (2), (3) and (4); (e)(1), (2) and (3); 
(e)(4)(G), (H) and (I); (e)(5) and (8); (f) and (g) of the Privacy Act:
    (1) FBI Insider Threat Program Records (JUSTICE/FBI-023).
    (2) These exemptions apply only to the extent that information in 
this system is subject to exemption pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(j) or 
(k). Where compliance would not appear to interfere with or adversely 
affect the purpose of this system to detect, deter, and/or mitigate 
insider threats to national security or to the FBI, the applicable 
exemption may be waived by the FBI in its sole discretion.
    (y) Exemptions from the particular subsections are justified for 
the following reasons:
    (1) From subsection (c)(3), the requirement that an accounting be 
made available to the named subject of a record, because this system is 
exempt from the access provisions of subsection (d). Also, because 
making available to a record subject the accounting of disclosures from 
records concerning him/her would specifically reveal any insider 
threat-related interest in the individual by the FBI or agencies that 
are recipients of the disclosures. Revealing this information could 
compromise ongoing, authorized law enforcement and intelligence 
efforts, particularly efforts to identify and/or mitigate insider 
threats to national security or to the FBI. Revealing this

[[Page 64094]]

information could also permit the record subject to obtain valuable 
insight concerning the information obtained during any investigation 
and to take measures to impede the investigation, e.g., destroy 
evidence or flee the area to avoid the investigation.
    (2) From subsection (c)(4) notification requirements because this 
system is exempt from the access and amendment provisions of subsection 
(d) as well as the accounting of disclosures provision of subsection 
(c)(3). The FBI takes seriously its obligation to maintain accurate 
records despite its assertion of this exemption, and to the extent it, 
in its sole discretion, agrees to permit amendment or correction of FBI 
records, it will share that information in appropriate cases.
    (3) From subsection (d)(1), (2), (3) and (4), (e)(4)(G) and (H), 
(e)(8), (f) and (g) because these provisions concern individual access 
to and amendment of law enforcement, intelligence and 
counterintelligence, and counterterrorism records and compliance could 
alert the subject of an authorized law enforcement or intelligence 
activity about that particular activity and the interest of the FBI 
and/or other law enforcement or intelligence agencies. Providing access 
could compromise information classified to protect national security; 
disclose information which would constitute an unwarranted invasion of 
another's personal privacy; reveal a sensitive investigative or 
intelligence technique; provide information that would allow a subject 
to avoid detection or apprehension; or constitute a potential danger to 
the health or safety of law enforcement personnel, confidential 
sources, or witnesses.
    (4) From subsection (e)(1) because it is not always possible to 
know in advance what information is relevant and necessary for law 
enforcement and intelligence purposes. The relevance and utility of 
certain information that may have a nexus to insider threats to 
national security or to the FBI may not always be fully evident until 
and unless it is vetted and matched with other sources of information 
that are necessarily and lawfully maintained by the FBI.
    (5) From subsections (e)(2) and (3) because application of these 
provisions could present a serious impediment to efforts to detect, 
deter and/or mitigate insider threats to national security or to the 
FBI and its personnel, facilities, resources, and activities. 
Application of these provisions would put the subject of an 
investigation on notice of the investigation and allow the subject an 
opportunity to engage in conduct intended to impede the investigative 
activity or avoid apprehension.
    (6) From subsection (e)(4)(I), to the extent that this subsection 
is interpreted to require more detail regarding the record sources in 
this system than has been published in the Federal Register. Should the 
subsection be so interpreted, exemption from this provision is 
necessary to protect the sources of law enforcement and intelligence 
information and to protect the privacy and safety of witnesses and 
informants and others who provide information to the FBI. Further, 
greater specificity of properly classified records could compromise 
national security.
    (7) From subsection (e)(5) because in the collection of information 
for authorized law enforcement and intelligence purposes, including 
efforts to detect, deter, and/or mitigate insider threats to national 
security or to the FBI and its personnel, facilities, resources, and 
activities, due to the nature of investigations and intelligence 
collection, the FBI often collects information that may not be 
immediately shown to be accurate, relevant, timely, and complete, 
although the FBI takes reasonable steps to collect only the information 
necessary to support its mission and investigations. Additionally, the 
information may aid in establishing patterns of activity and providing 
criminal or intelligence leads. It could impede investigative progress 
if it were necessary to assure relevance, accuracy, timeliness and 
completeness of all information obtained during the scope of an 
investigation. Further, some of the records in this system may come 
from other domestic or foreign government entities, or private 
entities, and it would not be administratively feasible for the FBI to 
vouch for the compliance of these agencies with this provision.
