SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In the past, we disclosed information under our efficient administration routine use, from the systems of records listed below, to contractors, cooperative agreement awardees, Federal and State agencies, and Federal congressional support agencies for research and statistical activities. To distinguish disclosures that SSA makes specifically for research purposes, we are adding a new routine use in the systems of records listed below to reflect the following:
To contractors, cooperative agreement awardees, State agencies, Federal agencies, and Federal congressional support agencies for research and statistical activities that are designed to increase knowledge about present or alternative Social Security programs; are of importance to the Social Security program or the Social Security beneficiaries; or are for an epidemiological project that relates to the Social Security program or beneficiaries. We will disclose information under this routine use pursuant only to a written agreement with us.
We are not republishing the system of records notices in their entirety. Instead, we are republishing only the identification number; the system of records name; the number of the modified routine use; and the issue of the
Federal Register
in which the system of records notice was last published in full, including the subsequent modification to the system of records notice's publication date and page number.
SECURITY CLASSIFICATION:

SSA provides the address of the component and system manager responsible for each system in the
Federal Register

Federal Register
notices listed above.
HISTORY:
