               Subpart D_Correction or Amending the Record
 
Sec.  802.12  Initial adverse agency determination on correction or amendment.

    If the System Manager determines that the record should not be 
corrected or amended in whole or in part, he will forthwith make such 
finding in writing, after consulting with the General Counsel, or his 
designee. The requester shall be notified of the refusal to correct or 
amend the record. The notification shall be in writing, signed by the 
System Manager, and shall include--
    (a) The reason for the denial;
    (b) The name and title or position of each person responsible for 
the denial of the request;
    (c) The appeal procedures for the individual for a review of the 
denial; and
    (d) Notice that the denial from the System Manager is appealable 
within 30 days from the receipt thereof by the requester to the Board.

The System Manager is allotted 10 working days (or within such extended 
period as is provided in the section concerning ``unusual 
circumstances'' infra) to respond to the request for review. If the 
requester does not receive an answer within such time, the delay shall 
constitute a denial of the request and shall permit the requester 
immediately to appeal to the Board, or to a district court.
