SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Privacy Act provides that an agency may only collect or maintain in its records information about individuals that is relevant and necessary to accomplish a purpose that is required by a statute or executive order. If a system of records is comprised of records that no longer meet this standard, the Privacy Act may require agencies to stop maintaining the system and expunge the records in accordance with the requirements in the SORN and the applicable records retention or disposition schedule approved by the National Archives and Records Administration. The System manager has deemed these systems obsolete and has declared that the records are no longer relevant to accomplish an agency mission/purpose identified. The categories of records in this system are no longer collectively maintained in a system of records. Therefore, consistent with the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A.108, the FCC proposes to rescind these two systems.
