A System of Records is a group of any records under the control
of an agency from which information is retrieved by the name
of the individual or by some identifying number, symbol or
other identifying particular assigned to the individual."
A System of Records Notice informs the public of the existence
of a system of records and describes the type of information
that an agency will be collecting, who will be collecting
the information, how it will be safeguarded, the purpose for
collecting such information, etc. It is an advanced notice
to the public that must be given before an agency begins to
collect, is given access to or can retrieve personal information
for a new system of records and must be published in the Federal
Register.
The following system of record notices have been published
in the Federal Register by USDA agencies.
