PART 1830--PRIVACY--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 1830.1  Access to records and identification.

    (a) Individuals may request access to records pertaining to them 
that are maintained as described in the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, by 
addressing an inquiry to the Office of Special Counsel either by mail or 
by appearing in person at the Office of Special Counsel at 1730 M 
Street, NW., Suite 201, Washington, DC 20036-4505, during business hours 
on a regular business day. Requests in writing should be clearly and 
prominently marked ``Privacy Act Request.'' Requests for copies of 
records shall be subject to duplication fees set forth in Sec. 1820.6 of 
this chapter.
    (b) Individuals making a request in person shall be required to 
present satisfactory proof of identity, preferably a document bearing 
the individual's photograph. Requests by mail or submitted other than in 
person should contain sufficient information to enable the Office of 
Special Counsel to determine that the requester and the subject of the 
record are one and the same. To assist in this process, individuals 
should submit their names and addresses, dates and places of birth, 
social security number, and any other known identifying information such 
as an agency file number or identification number and a description of 
the circumstances under which the records were compiled.
