In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, and Office of Management and Budget guidance on computer matching, the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) is providing notice of the establishment of a new matching program. The matching program will enable the 20 DOI programs listed in the appendix to compare records maintained in applicable DOI systems of records, including INTERIOR/ DOI-85, Payroll, Attendance, Retirement, and Leave Records; INTERIOR/ DOI-86, Accounts Receivable: FBMS; INTERIOR/DOI-87, Acquisition of Goods and Services: FBMS; and INTERIOR/DOI-89, Grants and Cooperative Agreements: FBMS, with records maintained in the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Do Not Pay Working System.
