RCS contains all schedules approved
since 1973.
Background
Each year, Federal agencies create
billions of records. To control this
accumulation, agency records managers
prepare schedules proposing retention
periods for records and submit these
schedules for NARA’s approval. Once
approved by NARA, records schedules
provide mandatory instructions on what
happens to records when no longer
needed for current Government
business. The records schedules
authorize agencies to preserve records of
continuing value in the National
Archives or to destroy, after a specified
period, records lacking continuing
administrative, legal, research, or other
value. Some schedules are
comprehensive and cover all the records
of an agency or one of its major
subdivisions. Most schedules, however,
cover records of only one office or
program or a few series of records. Many
of these update previously approved
schedules, and some include records
proposed as permanent.
Agencies may not destroy Federal
records without the approval of the
Archivist of the United States. The
Archivist grants this approval only after
thorough consideration of the records’
administrative use by the agency of
origin, the rights of the Government and
of private people directly affected by the
Government’s activities, and whether or
not the records have historical or other
value. Public review and comment on
these records schedules is part of the
Archivist’s consideration process.

Application Details
Permit Application: 2022–008
1. Applicant: Jonathan Schwartz, 411
Walnut St., #12926, Green Cove
Springs, FL 32043
Activity for Which Permit is
Requested: Waste management. The
applicant seeks an Antarctic
Conservation Act permit for a planned
yacht-based expedition to the Antarctic
Peninsula Region between December
2021 and March 2022. Activities
include shore landings, photography,
and wildlife viewing. Designated
pollutants that would be generated
during the trip include air emissions,
wastewater (urine, grey water) and solid
waste (food waste, human solid waste,
and packaging materials). Human waste
and grey water would be disposed of in
offshore waters, complying with the
provisions of Article 5 of Annex III and
Article 6 of Annex IV of MARPOL
Protocol. Food waste will either be
macerated and discharged at least 12
miles from shore or ice shelves or stored
aboard the vessel for disposal at port.
All other wastes would be kept for
proper disposal at the end of the
expedition. The applicant also plans to
use Unoccupied Arial Systems (UAS)
for navigational purposes and
occasional photography. UAS will be
launched, recovered, and piloted from
the primary vessel and mitigation
measures are in place to minimize
potential loss of the aircraft as well as
to prevent possible disturbances to
wildlife.
Location: Western Antarctic
Peninsula.
Dates of Permitted Activities:
December 26, 2021–April 1, 2022.
