EID captures and maintains information related to the investigation, arrest, booking, detention, and removal of persons encountered during immigration and criminal law enforcement investigations and operations conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), all components within DHS. The Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) for EID was published in January 2010.1 Since its publication, the PIA has been updated several times to reflect the expansion of information entered into EID, the types of information shared with external parties, and an enhanced electronic sharing capability. <strong><em>&#8220;This EID PIA Update addresses plans to further expand domestic law enforcement information sharing by notifying domestic law enforcement agencies when aliens convicted of certain violent or serious crimes, including felonies and misdemeanors, are released from ICE custody.2&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>* Question: Does the GBI currently take advantage of and use\/subscribe to the Enforcement Integrated Database (EID) and or the federal Law Enforcement Notification System (LENS) program database as described and linked above?<br \/>\n* If not, are there plans to apply to begin use in the next six months?<\/p>\n<p><strong>OFFICIAL OPEN RECORDS REQUEST:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please forward to me copies of any internal GBI documents, including email traffic, related to the GBI\u2019s use, or application for us,e of or mention of the federal Enforcement Integrated Database (EID) and or the federal Law Enforcement Notification System (LENS) programs\/databases which can be used to track and have knowledge of criminal aliens released from federal custody onto the streets of Georgia.
