National Archives and Records Administration October 2016 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

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 agencies no longer need them 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).

We are proposing to use NA Form 16016, Limited Facility Report, to review the facility, environment, and staffing capabilities of non-NARA organizations that wish to borrow a National Archives Traveling Exhibit. We invite you to comment on this proposed information collection pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
