Here's the link to the Federal Register notice: http://frwebgate6.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/waisgate.cgi?WAISdocID=499015221511+0+0+0&WAISaction=retrieve
As with the last call for comments by DoT, PrivacyActivism has drafted a sample letter asking for the proposed regs to be withdrawn. You can use this letter as a starting point for your own letter, or just print it out, sign it and mail it. See http://www.privacyactivism.org/Item/91 for the links to this letter in a variety of formats, and tips on writing good comments. A link to the web submission form is also included.
To snail mail comments, send them to: Documentary Services Division Attention: Docket Section, Room PL-401 Docket No. OST-1996-1437 Department of Transportation, SVC-124 Washington, DC 20590Since comments are due on Monday, March 17th, if you're going to snail mail them, do so before Friday of this week to ensure that they get there in time.
For more information about the CAPPS II system people can view these link: http://www.privacyactivism.org/Topic/CAPPS.I'd really appreciate it if you could post this to Politech -- the more people who send letters to DOT the better.
