NARA is giving public notice that the agency proposes to request extension of two currently approved information collections. The first information collection is the Applicant Background Survey, NA Form 3035, which is used to obtain source of recruitment, ethnicity, race, and disability data on job applicants. The information is used to determine if the recruitment is effectively reaching all aspects of the relevant labor pool. The information is also used to determine if there are proportionate acceptance rates at various stages of the recruitment process. The second information collection is the Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Request, NA Form 6006, used by NARA employees, on- site contractors, volunteers, Foundation members, Interns, and others in order to obtain a Federal Identity Card (FIC). The public is invited to comment on the proposed information collection pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Public Meeting on Non-Trial Civil Court Case Files
Document Number: E6-22249
Type: Notice

Agency: National Archives and Records Administration, Agencies and Commissions
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is holding a public meeting to gather input to help NARA decide how to identify post-1970 non-trial civil cases with sufficient historical value to warrant permanent preservation. Pursuant to the U.S. District Court records schedule issued in 1983, the National Archives preserves all civil cases prior to 1970 and all cases filed after January 1, 1970 that went to trial. Cases filed after January 1, 1970 that did not reach the trial stage are eligible for disposal twenty years after they are transferred to inactive storage. Trial cases are routinely transferred to the legal custody of the National Archives twenty-five years after closure. No non-trial cases in records center storage have been destroyed. NARA must develop a methodology to review a representative portion of the non-trial case files in order to determine which files should be preserved. The meeting is designed to elicit advice from the public, and the legal, judicial, and historical communities on the review methodology.
