National Archives and Records Administration November 24, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2), and the Presidential Historical Records Preservation Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110-404), the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) announces the inaugural meeting of the Founding Fathers Advisory Committee. The Committee will advise the Archivist of the United States on the progress of the Founding Fathers editorial projects funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), the grant making arm of the National Archives. The meeting will discuss the goals and purposes of the committee, how it will proceed with its work, and anticipated future accomplishments.

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is changing its regulations that provide NARA facilities' hours of operation. NARA facilities' hours of operation will no longer be listed in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Further, NARA offices must follow specific procedures when changing facilities' hours of operation. These procedures provide the public with advance notice of any proposed changes in hours and will include justification for the change in writing. Note that there are no proposed changes to hours of operation at any NARA facility at this time.
