Feds Ask: Can We Finally Ditch These Dusty Old Records?

## Summary

The National Archives is sharing new plans from federal agencies about which old records they want to toss because they’re no longer needed. If you have thoughts or concerns, you’ve got until March 17, 2025, to speak up! This helps keep government record-keeping smart and efficient, with no extra costs or delays for anyone.

## Abstract

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.
