National Archives and Records Administration February 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) publishes notice of certain Federal agency requests for records disposition authority (records schedules). We publish notice in the Federal Register and on regulations.gov for records schedules in which agencies propose to dispose of records they no longer need to conduct agency business. We invite public comments on such records schedules.

We are announcing an upcoming Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Advisory Committee meeting in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act and the second United States Open Government National Action Plan.

We have submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval to continue to use three currently approved information collections. People use the first information collection to request permission to film, photograph, or videotape at a NARA facility for news purposes. People use the second and third information collections to request permission to use NARA facilities for events in the Washington, DC, area, at a Federal records center, or at a Presidential library. Previously, we have handled each of these last two items as separate information collections, but we have recently revised the underlying regulation and the processes for requesting use of different kinds of NARA facilities, so we are proposing to combine these two into one ICR. All three collections are based on requirements in the same regulation. We invite you to comment on the proposed information collections.
