RECOGNIZING RD AND FRD Current Documents If you are generating documents in one of the subject areas discussed in this booklet, your documents may contain RD or FRD. Contact your local classification or security officer to find out who can classify RD or FRD for your agency. Have the document reviewed by one of these individuals who has the proper classification guidance and has been trained to use it. If you need further assistance, please contact the DOE Outreach Office at (301) 903-7567. Historical Documents There are three ways to determine if a document potentially contains RD/FRD and should be referred to DOE. You should refer any classified document: • originated by DOE, its predecessor organizations, or its subordinate organizations; • marked as RD or FRD, regardless of its origin; or • not marked as RD/FRD but containing RD/FRD terms in context. The first two ways are fairly simple. DOE organizations, past and present, are identified on pages 34-37. RD and FRD markings are identified on pages 6-7. The third way is the most difficult because it requires the reviewer to be familiar with the types of information falling within the definitions of RD and FRD. You can find an overview of RD and FRD subject areas on pages 8-11 and a list of key words that may reveal the presence of RD and FRD on pages 20- 33. Public Laws 105-261 and 106-65 Identifying documents that potentially contain RD and FRD is not just a good idea, it’s the law. Congress passed Public Law 105-261 to protect against the inadvertent release of RD and FRD during the declassification of documents under section 3.3 of Executive Order 12958, as amended by Executive Order 13292. As a result, agencies conducting historical record declassification reviews are required to conduct a page-by-page review of all documents unless they are in a file series deemed to be “highly unlikely to contain RD/FRD.” Since this law does not apply to documents reviewed prior to its passage, Congress passed Public Law 106-65 to expand the scope to include all records declassified under section 3.3 of Executive Order 12958, as amended by Executive Order 13292, that are (1) publicly available or (2) being processed by the National Archives and Records Administration. Such documents must receive a page-by-page review to determine if they potentially contain RD/FRD. Subject Area Indicators and Key Word List 5
RD AND FRD MARKINGS Each RD/FRD document must be marked with one of the three classification levels – TOP SECRET, SECRET, or CONFIDENTIAL. It must also contain one of the following warning admonishments: RD DOCUMENTS FRD DOCUMENTS RESTRICTED DATA This document contains Restricted Data as defined in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. Unauthorized disclosure subject to Administrative and Criminal Sanctions. FORMERLY RESTRICTED DATA Unauthorized disclosure subject to Administrative and Criminal Sanctions. Handle as Restricted Data in Foreign Dissemination, Section 144.b, Atomic Energy Act, 1954. Additional Markings In some cases, the use of special markings may assist you to identify incorrectly marked documents: • ATOMAL: A North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) marking indicating that the document contains RD or FRD information that was provided to NATO components under the NATO Agreement for Cooperation. • ATOMIC: A U.K. marking indicating that the document contains RD or FRD information. • Atomic Energy Information: A marking indicating that RD may be present. • CNWDI (Critical Nuclear Weapon Design Information): A DoD special marking indicating that nuclear weapon design information is present in the document. DOE uses this marking on documents distributed to DoD. • COSMIC: A NATO marking indicating that the document contains Top Secret information. In many cases, these Top Secret documents contain nuclear weapon information. • Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information (NNPI) or Naval Reactor: Markings indicating that the document contains either classified or unclassified NNPI and should be reviewed by DOE. Although there is no separate stamp that indicates NNPI, documents often have the words “Nuclear Navy,” “Naval Reactors,” or other similar descriptions. • Protect as Restricted Data (PARD): A marking indicating that RD may be present. • Sigma Category: A DOE marking indicating the presence of RD or FRD in one or more specifically defined categories. There are 12 separate categories numbered from 1-5 and 9-15. • Weapon Data: A DOE marking indicating that RD/FRD nuclear weapon information may be present. Subject Area Indicators and Key Word List 6
