The RCS contains all schedules approved since 1973. Background Each year, Federal agencies create billions of records. To control this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA’s approval. Once approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory instructions on what happens to records when no longer needed for current Government business. The records schedules authorize agencies to preserve records of continuing value in the National Archives or to destroy, after a specified period, records lacking continuing administrative, legal, research, or other value. 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. Agencies may not destroy Federal records without the approval of the Archivist of the United States. The Archivist grants this approval only after thorough consideration of the records’ administrative use by the agency of origin, the rights of the Government and of private people directly affected by the Government’s activities, and whether or not the records have historical or other value. Public review and comment on these records schedules is part of the Archivist’s consideration process. Schedules Pending 1.

ACTION: Notice of administrative correction to a records schedule.

For information about records schedules, contact Records Management SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00053 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Proposed Change We are making an administrative correction to remove schedule item DAA–0266–2015–0004–0005 (Reorganization Proceedings). We reviewed the administrative record and determined that, when the schedule was created, neither NARA nor the SEC took into consideration changes to the Bankruptcy Code that impacted SEC’s role and the records that would be created. As a result, a separate series for Reorganization Proceedings was erroneously added to the schedule, even though such records are already covered by permanent and temporary schedule items 0001–0004. Records of Reorganization Proceedings were previously scheduled under item NC1– 266–77–002 item 85 (SEC File Nos. 206–, 207– to 215–, 217–). At that time, the records documented the SEC’s substantial role in reorganization proceedings. Since NC1–266–77–0002 was approved, changes to bankruptcy laws substantially reduced the agency’s role in reorganization proceedings. Under the current Bankruptcy Code, records subject to SEC review are covered by schedule items DAA–0266– 2015–0004–0001, 0002, 0003 or 0004. Item 0005, proposed for removal, creates ambiguous disposition instructions as it overlaps with the other items. Removing the item allows the agency to implement appropriate disposition for records produced under the current law using the remaining schedule items.

Background

    Each year, Federal agencies create billions of records. To control 
this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing 
retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA's 
approval. Once approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory 
instructions on what happens to records when no longer needed for 
current Government business. The records schedules authorize agencies 
to preserve records of continuing value in the National Archives or to 
destroy, after a specified period, records lacking continuing 
administrative, legal, research, or other value. 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.
    Agencies may not destroy Federal records without the approval of 
the Archivist of the United States. The Archivist grants this approval 
only after thorough consideration of the records' administrative use by 
the agency of origin, the rights of the Government and of private 
people directly affected by the Government's activities, and whether or 
not the records have historical or other value. Public review and 
comment on these records schedules is part of the Archivist's 
consideration process.
