Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request
NARA proposes to request an extension from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) of approval to use a consent and authorization form. Requesters use the form to authorize NARA's Office of Government Information Services (OGIS) to make inquiries on their behalf and to authorize agencies to release information and records related to their Freedom of Information Act/Privacy Act requests/ appeals. We invite you to comment on this proposed information collection pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Privacy Act of 1974, as Amended; System of Records Notice
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) proposes to add a system of records to its existing inventory of systems subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552(a)) (``Privacy Act''). In this notice, NARA publishes NARA 45, Insider Threat Program records. In addition, NARA is updating Appendix B to add the SORN's system manager to the list of system managers and their addresses.
Privacy Act of 1974; Exemptions
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is revising its Privacy Act regulations to add a new insider threat system of records to the records exempt from release under the law enforcement exemption of the Privacy Act. This action is necessary to protect investigatory information from release that could compromise or damage the investigation, result in evidence tampering or destruction, undue influence of witnesses, danger to individuals, and similar harmful effects.
Freedom of Information Act Advisory Committee
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is renewing the charter for the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Advisory Committee, a Federal advisory committee we established to study the current FOIA landscape across the executive branch and to advise NARA's Office of Government Information Services, the Government's FOIA ombudsman, on improvements to the FOIA.
Records Schedules; Availability and Request for Comments
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) publishes notice at least once monthly of certain Federal agency requests for records disposition authority (records schedules). 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 of the United States and to destroy, after a specified period, records lacking administrative, legal, research, or other value. NARA publishes notice in the Federal Register for records schedules in which agencies propose to destroy records not previously authorized for disposal or reduce the retention period of records already authorized for disposal. NARA invites public comments on such records schedules, as required by 44 U.S.C. 3303a(a).
