The work presented on these pages represents, to our knowledge, a uniquely concrete and objective approach to evaluating some of the economic considerations resulting from the Privacy Act of 1974 (PL 93 579) . By using a computer model to simulate the cost impact of the Act's requirements, one can determine the differences resulting from alternative approaches to implementing the mandated safeguards. The computer model and the methodology it represents can be altered and modified to reflect changing circumstances and different record keeping systems. The publication of this work reflects our desire to improve the model by soliciting comments and suggestions from those involved in dealing with the task of complying with the law. By acting as a central collection point for these comments, NBS can provide a pool of knowledge that will aid all agencies.
