Sec. 1203.406  Additional classification factors.

    In determining the appropriate classification category, the 
following additional factors should be considered:
    (a) Uniformity within government activities. The effect 
classification will have on technological programs of other Government 
departments and agencies should be considered. Classification of 
official information must be reasonably uniform within the Government.
    (b) Applicability of classification directives of other Government 
agencies. It is necessary to determine whether authoritative 
classification guidance exists elsewhere for the information under 
consideration which would make it necessary to assign a higher 
classification than that indicated by the applicable NASA guidance. 
Generally, the classification by NASA should not be higher than that of 
equivalent information in other departments or agencies of the 
Government.
