[Federal Register Volume 82, Number 79 (Wednesday, April 26, 2017)] [Notices] [Pages 19263-19275] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2017-08410] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NATIONAL FOUNDATION ON THE ARTS AND THE HUMANITIES National Endowment for the Humanities Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records Notice AGENCY: National Endowment for the Humanities, National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities. ACTION: Notice of republication of systems of records and new routine uses. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The National Endowment for the Humanities (``NEH'') is publishing a notice of its systems of records with descriptions of the systems and the ways in which they are maintained, as required by the Privacy Act of 1974. NEH's mission has not changed since its inception in 1965: It extends federal financial assistance to support humanities-related projects, conducted by both individuals and organizations. In that endeavor, it employs staff and special government employees, and engages academic peer reviewers, to evaluate grant applications. NEH created several systems of records to maintain records concerning the individuals with whom it regularly interacts: e.g., grant applicants, employees, peer reviewers, contractors and vendors. As with its mission, the categories of individuals with whom NEH interacts and the systems it created to host records regarding such individuals have not changed significantly since NEH's inception. This notice reflects administrative and operational changes that have been made at NEH since it last published notice of its systems of records, such as agency restructuring and the increased use of electronic technology. This notice will enable individuals who wish to access information maintained in NEH systems of records to make accurate and specific requests for such information. This notice does not reflect, nor has NEH undertaken, significant changes to the numbers or categories of individuals about whom it maintains records in its systems of records, the categories of records maintained in these systems, the purpose for which it maintains these systems, or the availability of information contained in these systems. This notice also reflects certain new routine uses requested by the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of Government Information Services of the National Archives and Records Administration, as well as routine uses that are standard within other federal agencies. DATES: With the exception of new routine uses, this System of Records Notice is effective upon publication in the Federal Register. Any new routine use published in this System of Records Notice shall be effective 30 days from the date of publication, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(11). ADDRESSES: Adam M. Kress, Senior Agency Official for Privacy, 400 7th Street SW., Room 4060, Washington, DC 20506; (202) 606-8323; [email protected]. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Adam M. Kress, (202) 606-8323; [email protected]. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4), [[Page 19264]] NEH is today republishing a notice of the existence and character of its systems of records in order to make available in one place in the Federal Register the most up-to-date information regarding these systems. This republication reflects administrative changes, such as agency restructuring and the increased use of electronic technology that NEH has implemented since it last published notice of its systems of records. Table of Contents This document gives notice that the following NEH systems of records are in effect: NEH-1 Grants and Cooperative Agreements: Electronic Grant Management System NEH-2 Financial Management System NEH-3 Requisition System NEH-4 Employee Payroll and Leave and Attendance Records NEH-5 Office of the Inspector General Investigative Files NEH-6 Humanities Magazine Contact Database NEH-1 SYSTEM NAME: Grants and Cooperative Agreements: Electronic Grant Management System (``eGMS''). SYSTEM CLASSIFICATION: Unclassified. SYSTEM LOCATION: Authorized NEH staff may access NEH's electronic grant management system via an online web portal. CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM: (1) Individuals who have applied to NEH for financial assistance; (2) in the case of organizations who have applied to NEH for financial assistance, the organization's designated grant administrator and/or project director, as well as other individuals affiliated with the applicant; (3) individuals that have applied to, or received financial assistance, from NEH grantees, including fellows and subgrantees; (4) individuals who have attended NEH-funded seminars; (5) individuals who have applied to or have served as application review panelists; and (6) individuals who serve or have served as members of the National Council on the Humanities. CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: Names of individuals, Social Security numbers (only for those grant applicants and panelists receiving payment from NEH), eGMS personal identification number, U.S. citizenship status, race and ethnicity (no longer actively collected), email address, telephone and fax number, home and work address, current institutional affiliations, categorical information on disciplines and expertise, and NEH subscriptions. In addition to the above records, eGMS contains grant applications, including r[eacute]sum[eacute]s, samples of work and proposed budgets, award notification letters, notices of agency action, grantee performance reports, panelist and staff evaluations and write-ups, funding decisions, written communications between NEH and grantees and other background materials received from grantees. eGMS also contains information pertaining to NEH peer review panels, including the identity of panelists, date of panel meetings, applications considered, notes and evaluations, as well as travel reimbursement, evaluation and other instructions that NEH sends to the panels to facilitate their review. AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM: National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965, as amended (20 U.S.C. 951, et seq.). ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: Routine Use(s): NEH program and grant administration staff use eGMS to evaluate applications to NEH for federal financial assistance, manage active grants and cooperative agreement awards, and communicate with grantees. NEH's financial management system draws upon contact and other information within eGMS to process the disbursement of grant funds to grantees as well as the payment of honoraria and travel expense to panelists. NEH application review panelists have limited access to eGMS. They may only access eGMS to review grant applications assigned to the panels on which they have been asked to serve, as well as review panel instructions uploaded to eGMS. NEH application review panelists use their limited access to review grant applications, as well as prepare and submit grant evaluations. NEH publicly discloses on its Web site information pertaining to funded projects, including the grantee and/or project director's name and institutional affiliation, dollar amount of the grant, application identification number, title and summary of the project, field of study under which the project falls, and NEH program and division responsible for administering the grant. In addition, NEH often discloses the identity of successful grant applicants via press release. NEH also uses eGMS for statistical research, congressional oversight and trend analysis. In addition to the above uses and disclosures, as well as the disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 552a(b) of the Privacy Act, all or a portion of the records or information contained in this system may be disclosed outside NEH as a routine use pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as follows: 1.

Safeguards: NEH limits access to records within this system to authorized personnel whose official duties require such access. For example, NEH limits access of its program staff to those functions necessary to processing and evaluation of applications. NEH limits the access of its grant management staff to those functions necessary to managing active grants and disbursing funds. NEH protects records in this system through user identification, passwords, database permissions, and software controls, and it encrypts all Social Security numbers stored within eGMS. Retention and Disposal: NEH's Comprehensive Records Control Schedule provides disposition authority with respect to various records stored within eGMS. NEH has authority to destroy applications for projects not selected for funding, or withdrawn from NEH, when five years old. With respect to projects funded by NEH, NEH has authority to retain the official case file associated with such projects for twenty-five years. After the retention period, NEH may destroy case file records or select unique case files for permanent retention at the National Archives and Records Administration. Official case files consist of the application, award notification letter, notices of agency action, grantee performance reports, reviewer and [[Page 19266]] panelist comments and summaries, staff comments and recommendations, written communications between NEH and grantees and other background materials received from the grantee. With respect to reference files on peer review panels and panelists, such as meeting minutes and evaluative material for unfunded applications, lists of panelists and applications to be reviewed, and correspondence between NEH and panelists, NEH has authority to destroy such records when three years old. NEH otherwise maintains records in eGMS on an indefinite basis for reference purposes.
