Sec. 4a.3  Classification levels.

    Information may be classified as national security information by a 
designated original classifier of the Department if it is determined 
that the information concerns one or more of the categories described in 
Sec. 1.5 of E.O. 12958. The levels established by E.O. 12958 (Top 
Secret, Secret, and Confidential) are the only terms that may be applied 
to national security information. Except as provided by statute, no 
other terms shall be used within the Department for the three 
classification levels.
