The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) plans to create a new system called "Surveys for Special Studies of the Civil Service" under the Privacy Act of 1974. This system will collect, store, and use information for developing surveys like the Merit Principles Survey, which assess the health of federal workforce practices such as merit system principles and prohibited personnel practices. These surveys, carried out every few years, seek feedback from federal employees and aim to provide insights for policymakers. The information gathered will be managed and protected under specific regulations, ensuring individuals can access or amend their own records.

The Department of the Navy is updating the system of records known as the "Marine Corps Marathon Automated Support System" to the "Marine Corps Marathon Organization Event Records." This update includes expanding the types of events and individuals covered, adding medical treatment information, and integrating standard Department of Defense routine uses. Furthermore, the new system will allow more information sharing outside the Department of Defense and update various sections to improve clarity and accuracy. The changes will take effect upon publication, but comments on the Routine Uses are accepted until January 27, 2025.
