Privacy Act Regulations; Delay of Effective Date

On January 10, 2025, we published a final rule that exempted a system of records, titled "Smuggling Interdiction and Trade Compliance (SITC) National Information Communication Activity System (SNICAS), USDA/APHIS-21," from certain provisions of the Privacy Act. In addition, it also amended the Privacy Act regulations to reflect an administrative change to the list of system of records that are exempt from certain provisions of the Privacy Act. The final rule was scheduled to go into effect on February 10, 2025. This document delays the effective date until April 11, 2025.
