Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

The Office of the Secretary of Defense proposes to alter a system of records, DWHS E01 DoD, entitled ``DoD Federal Docket Management System (DoD FDMS).'' The purpose of this system of records is to permit the Department of Defense to identify individuals who have submitted comments in response to DoD rule making documents or notices so that communications or other actions, as appropriate and necessary, can be effected, such as a need to seek clarification of the comment, a direct response is warranted, and for such other needs as may be associated with the rule making or notice process.
