This notice announces the opening of additional Nixon Presidential Historical Materials by the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum, a division of the National Archives and Records Administration. Notice is hereby given that, in accordance with Sec. 104 of Title I of the Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act (PRMPA, 44 U.S.C. Sec. 2111 note) and Sec. 1275.42(b) of the PRMPA Regulations implementing the Act (36 CFR Part 1275), the Agency has identified, inventoried, and prepared for public access approximately 340 hours of Nixon White House tape recordings and additional textual materials with certain information redacted as required by law, including the PRMPA.

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has identified a collection of disaster recovery backup tapes from the George H.W. Bush and Clinton Administrations, as appropriate for disposal under the provisions of 44 U.S.C. 2203(f)(3). This notice describes our reasons for determining that further retention of these disaster recovery backup tapes is not warranted, given that the Presidential and Federal electronic mail with attachments, pager and calendar records residing on these backup tapes were previously restored, and that NARA will permanently retain these Presidential and Federal records on a different set of electronic media. Because the backup tapes proposed for disposal were made for disaster recovery purposes, NARA is following a procedure similar to that in GRS 24 for Federal record backup tapes. This notice does not constitute a final agency action, as described in 44 U.S.C. 2203(f)(3), and no Presidential records will be disposed of following this notice. NARA will publish a second notice only after it has reviewed any comments received during this 45-day notice period. The second, 60-day notice will constitute a final agency action, in the event that NARA proceeds with disposal.

Notice is hereby given of the appointment of members of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Performance Review Board (PRB).
