Exemption of Records System Under the Privacy Act

The Department of Justice, Bureau of Prisons (BOP), is exempting a Privacy Act system of records from subsections (c)(3) and (4), (d), (e)(2), and (3), (e)(5) and (e)(8), (f), and (g) of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a. This system of records is the BOP ``Telephone Activity Record System (JUSTICE/BOP-011).'' Information in this system relates to inmate telephone activity and may include information relating to official Federal investigations and matters of law enforcement of the BOP pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 2510 et. seq., 3621, 4003, 4042, and 4082. The exemptions are necessary to protect third party privacy and to avoid interference with law enforcement activities, e.g., to preclude the disclosure of investigative techniques, to prevent subjects of investigations from frustrating the investigative process, and to more effectively ensure the safety, security and good order of Federal correctional facilities.
