continually relevant, and to be
sufficiently general so as to broadly
apply at all federal agencies and across
all missions. The practices represent
aspirational goals that, when fully
realized, will enable agencies,
practitioners, and policymakers to
improve the government’s approach to
data stewardship and leverage data to
create value.
The draft practices are grouped
according to five broad objectives that
begin to operationalize five
corresponding objectives.
• Govern and Manage Data as a
Strategic Asset
• Protect and Secure Data
• Promote Efficient Use of Data Assets
• Build a Culture that Values Data as an
Asset
• Honor Stakeholder Input and
Leverage Partners
In addition to applying across
government, the strategy and its
practices apply across the data lifecycle,
which can be depicted in six stages:
1. Creation, collection, or acquisition;
2. processing;
3. access;
4. use;
5. dissemination; and
6. storage and disposition.
See https://strategy.data.gov for more
information about how the draft
practices pertain to each of those stages.
The draft practices will be revised and
further developed in response to public
and agency comments. Specifically,
comments are requested on the
following:
1. What framework(s) for organizing
or classifying the practices would be
most useful to Federal practitioners and
other key stakeholders? For example,
should they be classified according to
whether they pertain to data creation,
collection, or acquisition; processing;
access; use; dissemination; and storage
and disposition?
2. List and describe any additional
practices relevant to data creation,
collection, acquisition, processing,
access, use, dissemination, storage, and
disposition that are not included in the
draft practices.
3. Identify any draft practices that
should be omitted and explain why.
4. Provide any necessary edits to the
practices to ensure that they effectively
identify objectives, outcomes, or goals
and are helpful to a practitioners and
data policymakers.
5. Please provide examples of how
Federal, state, local, or tribal
government agencies have successfully
implemented a particular practice.
6. Please provide specific action steps
that should be associated with a
particular practice.

For guidance in proposing action
steps, use the following as examples of
specific practices and associated action
steps. These examples are provided for
guidance only.
• Practice: Prioritize Data Security
Example Action Steps
1. Leverage existing standards for
comprehensive and high quality data
management.
2. Define, implement, and maintain
formal expectations throughout
government for data oversight and
transparency.
• Practice: Connect Federal Spending to
Outcomes
Example Action Steps
1. Publish interactive reports with
spending, performance, and missionsupport data that enable the public to
interact with the data and create
customizable tables and report. These
interactive charts and graphics should
be embedded in Federal websites such
as USAspending.gov and
performance.gov.
2. Standardize reporting data for
federal grants to help make the data
more accessible and useful.

comment once using your preferred
feedback platform.

standard 2,000-acre activation limit for
a zone. The application was submitted

Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u),
and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR

magnet site: Proposed Site 4 (1,630
acres)—Repauno/Greenwich rail and
port terminal complex, 200 North
Repauno Avenue, Gibbstown. The
application would have no impact on
FTZ 142’s previously authorized
subzones.
