SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Administrative corrections are changes to temporary items on approved records schedules to address errors or oversights when the records were originally scheduled. The notice applies only to the changes described; not to other portions of a schedule. Submitting agencies cannot implement administrative corrections until the comment period ends and NARA approves the changes.
This administrative correction should be read in conjunction with the previously approved records schedules N1-053-06-04, Bureau of Fiscal Service, Support Records for Public Debt; N1-053-06-05, Bureau of Fiscal Service, Retail Securities Services; N1-053-06-06, Bureau of Fiscal Service, Summary Debt Accounting; N1-053-06-07, Bureau of Fiscal Service, Wholesale Security Services; and N1-053-06-08, Bureau of Fiscal Service, Government Agency Investment Services. You can find these schedules on the Records Control Schedule page at https://www.archives.gov/records-mgmt/rcs/schedules/index.html?dir=/departments/department-of-the-treasury/rg-0053.
We are making an administrative correction to the schedules to clearly indicate that all temporary items on the schedules are media-neutral items. These schedules were prepared and approved at a time of transition when media-neutral status was not as clearly noted on records schedules as it later came to be. We have reviewed the administrative record and concluded that these schedules were intended to be media-neutral, and that when they were received and evaluated by NARA they were understood to be media-neutral. Therefore, we are modifying the schedules to make this status clear in the body of the schedules.
Making these schedule items media-neutral means the schedule instructions and retention periods can be applied to the described kinds of records regardless of an individual record's medium (for example, hard-copy, analog, or digital). We will line out all references to "hard copy" that were erroneously included in the temporary item descriptions, and add a statement on the schedule that it is a media-neutral schedule. See https://www.archives.gov/records-mgmt/faqs/media-neutral.html for more information on media-neutral schedules.

Chief Records Officer for the U.S. Government.
