the applicant organization and any

the cost elements in the proposed

budget.

V. Project Outcome

professionally edited and prepared in

accordance with NIC and federal

publications guidelines. A copy of the

entailing the preparation of a report for

publication and public dissemination is

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS

ADMINISTRATION

Records Schedules; Availability and

Request Request for Comments

AGENCY: National Archives and Records

Administration, Office of Records

Administration.

ACTION: Notice of availability of

proposed records schedules; request for

comments.

SUMMARY: The National Archives and

Records Administration (NARA)

publishes notice at least once monthly

of certain Federal agency requests for

records disposition authority (records

schedules). Records schedules identify

records of sufficient value to warrant

preservation in the National Archives of

the United States. Schedules also

authorizes agencies after a specified

period to dispose of records lacking

administrative, legal, research, or other

value. Notice is published for records

schedules that (1) proposes the

destruction of records not previously

authorized for disposal, or (2) reduce

the retention period for records already

authorized for disposal. NARA invites

public comments on such schedules, as

required by 44 USC 3303a(a)

DATES: Request for copies must be

received in writing on or before April 3,

1995. Once the appraisal of the records

is completed, NARA will send a copy of

the schedule. The requester will be

given 30 days to submit comments.

ADDRESSES: Address requests for single

copies of schedules identified in this

notice to the Records Appraisal and

Disposition Division (NIR), National

Archives and Records Administration,

College Park, MD 20740. Requesters

must cite the control number assigned

to each schedule when requesting a

copy. The control number appears in

the parentheses immediately after the

name of the requesting agency.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year

U.S. Government agencies create

billions of records on paper, film,

magnetic tape, and other media. In order

to control this accumulation, agency

records managers prepare records

schedules specifying when the agency

no longer needs the records and what

happens to the records after this period.

Some schedules are comprehensive and

cover all the records of an agency or one

of its major subdivisions. These

comprehensive schedules provide for

the eventual transfer to the National

Archives of historically valuable records

and authorize the disposal of all other

records. Most schedules, however, cover

records of only one office or program or

a few series of records, and many are

updates of previously approved

schedules. Such schedules also may

include records that are designated for

permanent retention.

Destruction of records requires the

approval of the Archivist of the United

States. This approval is granted after a

thorough study of the records that takes

into account their administrative use by

the agency of origin, the rights of the

Government and of private persons

directly affected by the Government’s

activities, and historical or other value.

This public notice identifies the

Federal agencies and their subdivisions

requesting disposition authority,

includes the control number assigned to

each schedule, and briefly describes the

records proposed for disposal. The

records schedule contains additional

information about the records and their

disposition. Further information about

the disposition process will be

furnished to each requester.
