2 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations NARA’s Revisions to the Federal Records Management Regulations found at 36 CFR Chapter XII, Subchapter B.

3 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations So where does all this begin and how does it happen? NARA revises or amends its regulations according to the procedures found in the the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), 1946, and other procedural statutes.  Specifically found at 5 U.S.C. § 553  For our purposes, NARA’s rulemaking is “informal,” or “notice-and-comment” rulemaking

4 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations Additional requirements for rulemaking concerning Office of Management and Budget oversight: Paperwork Reduction Act originally created the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB May be imposed by Executive Order (see Executive Order 12,866)

5 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations Where does it say NARA has the authority to do all this? Enabling Regulatory statute: 44 U.S.C. 2104: The Archivist shall prescribe such regulations as the Archivist deems necessary to effectuate the functions of the Archivist. Also the Federal Records Act of 1950, as amended, establishes the basis for records management programs in Federal agencies. See 44 U.S.C. chapters 21, 29, 31, and 33.

8 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations In the ANPRM, NARA identified several reasons for revising the regulations: Challenges of a changing recordkeeping environment Incorporate current standards and practices Reflect the lifecycle of records Re-write in accordance with plain language principles Make it easier for Federal agencies and records management contractors to follow our regulations

9 NARA’s Federal Records Management Regulations In response to the ANPRM, NARA received both specific and general comments Overall, the comments were in favor, including it was time for an update and the regulations “needed to incorporate changes to address the evolution of technology.” Recommended that NARA reference ISO throughout regs, not just part on electronic records management.
