    The Department of the Interior (DOI) plans to remove the National Park Service's (NPS) Privacy Act system of records known as INTERIOR/NPS-5, Retirement Record, from its inventory. This action is because these records are now covered under a broader DOI system, INTERIOR/DOI-85, which handles payroll, attendance, retirement, and leave records. The change aims to streamline record-keeping with no negative impact on individuals, as the necessary information will remain protected under the existing DOI system. Comments on this change are open until December 18, 2024, and can be submitted through various channels, including the Federal eRulemaking Portal and email.

    Simple Explanation

    The Park Service used to keep its own list of people who were retiring, but now they are going to use a bigger, shared list for all of the Interior Department. This change won't make things worse for people, and everyone can still comment until December 18, 2024.
