INFORMATION--Table of Contents

 

Sec. 601.2  Classification authority.



    The Foundation does not have original classification authority under 

Executive Order 12958. In any instance where a Foundation employee 

develops information that appears to warrant classification because of 

its national security character, the material will be afforded 

protection and sent to the Division of Administrative Services (DAS). 

Upon determination that classification is warranted, DAS will submit 

such material to the agency that has appropriate subject matter interest 

and classification authority.
