Rule 6-B3101 - COOPERATION WITH THE U.S. OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

3101.1

Because of the statutory and administrative relationships in personnel administration between the District and Federal Government jurisdictions, these regulations are, to the extent practicable, consistent with rules and regulations governing personnel records management in the Federal service. These regulations are also consistent with the terms of the agreement between the District of Columbia Government and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which is referred to in section 3125 of this chapter.

3101.2

All Federal personnel records in the custody of the District Government shall be subject to the Federal laws and regulations regarding personnel records, availability of official information, protection of privacy and personnel records, freedom of information, and other pertinent subjects, as set forth in Title 5 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The penalty for knowingly and willfully obtaining or disclosing information to which the recipient is not entitled is a fine not exceeding $5,000. Federal personnel records in the custody of the District Government include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:

(a) Personnel records of District employees whose positions were subject to Federal civil service rules and regulations, for the entire period of service during which such rules and regulations applied

(b) Employee records of activities for which the District of Columbia previously acted, or continues to act as the agent of the Federal Government, e.g., records of the employee's participation in the Federal civil service retirement system and the health insurance and/or life insurance programs.

(c) Other Federal personnel records which erroneously or for any reason are in the possession of the District Government.
