These files are needed in the office as long as the program is active. The program is funded until 1995. Occasionally accidents or reports of hazardous substances make immediate access to the files necessary. Once the program ends, these files should be transferred to the archives for permanent retention. However, depending on future funding, the "in office" retention may be adjusted.
