USDA
is authorized to obtain certain information under Section 515
of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for
Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law No. 106-554, codified at 44 U.S.C.
3516, note). Information is needed by USDA to process the
request for correction and allow USDA to reply accordingly. This
information is needed by USDA to respond to the requestor and
initiate follow-up contact with the requestor if required. Requestors
should not send USDA their Social Security Number. Requestors
are advised that they do not have to furnish the information
but failure to do so may prevent their request from being processed. The
information requestors furnish is almost never used for any purpose
other than to process and respond to their request. However,
USDA may disclose information to a congressional office in response
to an inquiry made on behalf of the requestor, to the Department
of Justice, a court, other tribunal when the information is relevant
and necessary to litigation, or to a contractor or another Federal
agency to help accomplish a function related to this process.
