SUMMARY: This notice adds a new system of records to the Commission's

systems of records under the Privacy Act of 1974, Public Law 93-579, 5

provided by visitors to the agency. The visitor provides

identification, in the form of a driver's license, passport, or

be requested. This information is scanned and linked to the name and

office phone number of the CFTC employee sponsoring the visit, along

with information on the location of the visit, time of entry, purpose

of the visit, and the number of the badge issued to the visitor. The

purpose of the information collection is to enhance the security of

CFTC employees and property by verifying the identity of visitors, and

to track the location of the visitor so that, in the event of an

emergency, the agency can account for all the people in its space.

Records in the visitor system will be retained for three months and

then purged.

DATES: Comments on the establishment of the new system of records must

be received no later than May 31, 2007. The new system of records will
