What the agency says

The Department of Energy (DOE or Department) is revising its regulations to exempt certain records maintained under a newly established system of records--DOE-85, Research, Technology, and Economic Security Due Diligence Review Records--from the notification and access provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974. The Department is exempting portions of this system of records from these subsections of the Privacy Act because of requirements related to classified information.
