6 Records and Information Management-Retention and Disposal The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), in collaboration with federal agencies, approves whether records are Temporary (eligible at some point for destruction/deletion because they no longer have business value) or Permanent (eligible at some point to be transferred to the National Archives because of historical or evidential significance). Records/data and information with historical value, identified as having a permanent disposition, are transferred to the National Archives of the United States at the end of their retention period. All other records identified as having a temporary disposition are destroyed at the end of their retention period in accordance with the NARA Records Schedule or the General Records Schedule.
These determinations are made through records retention schedules and NARA statutes (44 United States Code (U.S.C.), 36 Code of Federation Regulations (CFR)). Under 36 CFR, agencies are required to establish procedures for addressing Records and Information Management (RIM) requirements. This includes strategies for establishing and managing recordkeeping requirements and disposition instructions before approving new electronic information systems or enhancements to existing systems.
The following questions are intended to determine whether the records/data and information in the system have approved records retention schedules and disposition instructions, whether the system incorporates RIM strategies including support for NARAs Universal Electronic Records Management (ERM) requirements, and if a mitigation strategy is needed to ensure compliance.

7 Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 requires that agencies obtain an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval in the form of a "control number"before promulgating a paper form, website, surveys, questionnaires, or electronic submission from 10 or more members of the public. If the data collection is from federal employees regarding work-related duties, then a PRA clearance is not necessary.
7.1 Will the project be collecting any information from 10 or more persons who are not Federal employees?
Yes, we usually collect information up to 25 people.
7.2 Is there any collection of information addressed to all or a substantial majority of an industry (i.e., Fuel Fabrication Facilities or Fuel Cycle Facilities)?
No.
7.3 Is the collection of information required by a rule of general applicability?
No.

OMB clearance is needed.
Currently has OMB Clearance. Clearance No.
Comments: According to the OIRA Memorandum on Social Media, Web-Based Interactive Technologies, and the Paperwork Reduction Act, if an agency requests information from respondents beyond name and email or mailing address (e.g., age, sex, race/ethnicity, employment, or citizenship status), this request is covered by the PRA because it seeks information beyond what is necessary for self-identification of the respondent.
OMB approval of this information collection can be requested once a SORN is in place.
