Privacy Act of 1974; United States Coast Guard-029 Notice of Arrival and Departure System of Records Notice

Resumo

Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), United States Coast Guard (USCG) gives notice that it is establishing a system of records for retaining certain biographical information on all passenger and crew members on board U.S. and foreign vessels bound for or departing from ports or places in the United States. The system of records is for the collection and processing of Notice of Arrival and Departure (NOAD) information pursuant to 33 CFR part 160, subpart C. This information is maintained within the Ship Arrival Notification System (SANS) as well as other USCG systems used for screening and vetting of vessels, vessel crews and passengers. USCG is publishing a system of records notice (SORN) in order to permit the traveling public greater access to individual information and a more comprehensive understanding of how and where information pertaining to them is collected and maintained. Elsewhere in today's Federal Register, DHS has issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to exempt this SORN from certain provisions of the Privacy Act.
