All Federal employees are required by law and Agency policy to maintain and preserve records. Federal Regulations 36 CFR Part 1220 and 1222, along with NASA Policy Directive (NPD) 1440.6H, NASA Records Management, state the requirement. The heads of Federal agencies are responsible for preventing any unlawful alienation, alteration, removal, or any accidental or unauthorized destruction of records, including all forms of mutilations. In addition, they are responsible for ensuring that all employees are aware of these provisions in the law and that any such action be reported to them or the Agency Records Officer.
The HQ Records Management Team will assist you in the identification, preservation/storage, and protection of your records against loss, theft, and unauthorized release or change regardless of the record format. We will also facilitate the designation, maintenance, and protection of your vital records.
