Announcement: NARA proposed rule is published for public comment



NARA published a proposed rule in the February 17 Federal Register at page 8077.  The proposed rule will update NARA's declassification regulations to incorporate changes resulting from Executive Orders 12958 and 13142 which govern Federal classification and declassification activities.  We have also included new rules for agencies that wish to send personnel to a NARA facility to review classified records, and rules for loaning archival records to agencies for declassification review.  We invite your comments on the proposed rule.  The comment period ends on April 17.

We will have a link to the proposed rule on our Opportunities for Public Comment page (www.nara.gov/nara/pubcom.html) by Friday afternoon.  You can also access it electronically through GPO Access at http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/fedreg/a000217c.html
