NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS 

ADMINISTRATION 

[NARA–2015–019] 

Records Schedules; Availability and 

Request for Comments 

AGENCY: National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA). 

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). Once approved by NARA, 

records schedules provide mandatory 

instructions on what happens to records 

when no longer needed for current 

Government business. They authorize 

agencies to preserve records of 

continuing value in the National 

Archives of the United States and to 

destroy, after a specified period, records 

lacking administrative, legal, research, 

or other value. NARA publishes notice 

for records schedules in which agencies 

propose to destroy records not 

previously authorized for disposal or 

reduce the retention period of records 

already authorized for disposal. NARA 

invites public comments on such 

records schedules, in accordance with 

44 U.S.C. 3303a(a). 

DATES: NARA must receive written 

requests for copies of the records 

schedules listed in this notice on or 

before January 22, 2015. Once NARA 

has completed appraisal of the records, 

we will send you a copy of the 

schedule. NARA staff usually prepare 

appraisal memoranda that contain 

additional information concerning the 

records listed in a proposed schedule. 

You may also ask for copies of these in 

your request. You will have 30 days 

after NARA sends you a records 

schedule to submit comments on it. 

ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of 

any records schedule listed in this 

notice by contacting Records 

Management Services (ACNR) by mail at 

NARA (ACNR); 8601 Adelphi Road; 

College Park, MD 20740–6001, by email 

at request.schedule@nara.gov, or by fax 

at 301–837–3698. You must cite the 

control number, which appears below in 

parentheses after the name of the agency 

which submitted the schedule, and you 

must provide a mailing address. If you 

would like appraisal reports as well, 

please state that in your request. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Margaret Hawkins, Director, Records 

Management Services, by mail at 

National Archives and Records 

Administration (ANCR); 8601 Adelphi 

Road; College Park, MD 20740–6001, by 

telephone at 301–837–1799, or by email 

at request.schedule@nara.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year, 

Federal agencies create billions of 

records on paper, film, magnetic tape, 

and other media. To control this 

accumulation, agency records managers 

prepare schedules proposing retention 

periods for records and submit these 

schedules for NARA’s approval. Once 

approved, these schedules give the 

agency appropriate times by which to 

transfer historically valuable records 

into the National Archives and 

authorize the agency to dispose of all 

other records after the agency no longer 

needs them to conduct its business. 

Some schedules are comprehensive and 

cover all the records of an agency or one 

of its major subdivisions. Most 

schedules, however, cover records of 

only one office or program or a few 

series of records. Many of these update 

previously approved schedules, and 

some include records proposed as 

permanent. 

The schedules listed in this notice are 

media-neutral unless otherwise 

specified. Media-neutral means that the 

agency may apply the disposition 

instructions to records regardless of the 

medium in which the records are 

created and maintained. Items included 

in schedules submitted to NARA on or 

after December 17, 2007, are medianeutral unless the item is specifically 

limited to a certain medium (see 36 CFR 

1225.12(e)). 

No Federal records may be destroyed 

without authorization granted by the 

Archivist of the United States through 

an approved records schedule. The 

Archivist grants destruction authority 

only after a thorough consideration of 

the agency of origin’s administrative use 

of the records, the rights of the 

Government and of people directly 

affected by the Government’s activities, 

and the records’ historical or other 

value. 

This notice identifies the Federal 

agencies and any subdivisions 

requesting disposition authority and the 

organizational unit(s) accumulating the 

records—or agency-wide applicability 

in the case of records that may be 

accumulated throughout an agency. 

This notice also lists the control number 

assigned to each schedule, the total 

number of schedule items, the number 

of temporary items (records proposed 

for destruction), and a brief description 

of the temporary records. 

The records schedules themselves 

contain a full description of the records 

at the file unit level as well as their 

disposition. If NARA staff has prepared 

an appraisal memorandum for a 

schedule, it, too, includes information 

about the covered records. You may 

request additional information about the 

disposition process from the contact 

listed above.
