NARA regulations (36 CFR
1226.12(a)) require agencies to
disseminate GRS changes within six

revised GRS states that the provisions
must be followed without exception,

3. How do agencies cite GRS items

VerDate Sep<11>2014
GRS disposition instructions so that
they are machine-implementable.
Machine-implementable disposition
instructions can be converted into code
that a computer application can
implement. Machine-implementable
instructions must have only one
retention type for the computer to know
what to do. A retention type identifies
the point in time when retention starts,
either at the point of creation (an ageor creation-based retention, such as
‘‘Destroy when 3 years old’’) or when a
certain event occurs (an event-based
retention, such as ‘‘Destroy 3 years after
final action’’).

If your agency has an existing
schedule item for records covered by a
new or revised GRS, the GRS supersedes
the agency-specific item. Per 36 CFR
1227.12(a)(3), if you wish to continue
using your agency-specific item and the
related GRS item is not identified as
mandatory, you must notify NARA
within 120 days of the date of this
transmittal. Please send these
notifications to GRS_Team@nara.gov.
If you do not have an already existing
agency-specific item and want to apply
a retention period that differs from that
specified in the GRS, you must submit
a records schedule to NARA for
approval via the Electronic Records
Archives.
5. How can an agency get copies of the
new GRS?
