{"abstract":"In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to modify, rename, and reissue a current DHS U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) system of records titled, \"Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)-007 Alien Criminal Response Information Management (ACRIMe).\" This system of records allows the Department to receive and respond to criminal history and immigration status inquiries made by federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, and other federal agencies, including the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). This system of records notice (SORN) covers records the Department collects and maintains on individuals who are: Arrested; screened as part of a background check to determine suitability for employment, access, or other purposes; screened to verify or ascertain citizenship or immigration status, immigration history, and criminal history to inform an HHS determination regarding sponsorship of an unaccompanied alien child; or otherwise encountered by federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies. DHS may also use information maintained in this system of records for other purposes consistent with its statutory authorities. As a result of a biennial review of this system, the Department is updating this SORN to: Change the system of records name to Criminal History and Immigration Verification (CHIVe); add one new category of individuals to include individuals seeking approval from HHS to sponsor an unaccompanied alien child and/or other adult members of the potential sponsor's household; add one new category of records to include biometrics for potential sponsors of an unaccompanied alien child and/or other adult members of the potential sponsor's household; expand a category of records to include screening to verify or ascertain citizenship or immigration status, immigration history, and criminal history for sponsorship of unaccompanied alien children; add a new purpose of the system: To screen individuals to verify or ascertain citizenship or immigration status, immigration history, and criminal history to inform determinations regarding sponsorship of unaccompanied alien children who are in the care and custody of HHS; add a new routine use to describe how the DHS may share information from this system of records with HHS; modify routine use (E) and add routine use (F) to conform to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M- 17-12 \"Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information\" (Jan. 3, 2017); revise the records retention periods so that they align with the records schedule approved by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA); and clarify that DHS may use information maintained in this system of records for other purposes consistent with its statutory authorities. Because this system will no longer cover information related to public tips, ICE is also updating the SORN to: Remove two categories of individuals; remove two categories of records; remove one routine use that allows DHS to disclose reports of suspicious activity, tips, potential violations of law, and other relevant information to external law enforcement agencies; and remove four purposes for the collection of information. Additionally, this notice includes non-substantive changes to simplify the formatting and text of the previously published notice. This modified system of records will be included in DHS's inventory of record systems. ICE will issue a new Privacy Act rulemaking, elsewhere in the Federal Register.","action":"Notice of Modified System of Records.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY","name":"Homeland Security Department","id":227,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/homeland-security-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/227","parent_id":null,"slug":"homeland-security-department"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2018/05/08/2018-09902.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"83 FR 20844","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2018-06-07","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Submit comments on or before June 7, 2018.
