guards. Information that is retrievable by CRT's within various U.S.
Attorney's offices and the Executive Office for United States Attorneys
requires user identification numbers which are issued to authorized
employees of the Department of Justice.

Storage:
All information except that specified in this paragraph, is
recorded on basic paper/cardboard material, and stored within manila
file folders, within metal file cabinets, electric file/card retrievers
or safes. Some material is recorded and stored on magnetic tape, card
or other data processing type storage matter for reproduction later
into conventional formats.

Retrievability:
Information is retrieved primarily by name of person, case number,
compliant number of court docket number. Information within this system
of records may be accessed by various U.S. Attorney's offices and the
Executive Office for United States Attorneys by means of catho-ray tube
terminals (CRTs).

Safeguards:
Information in the system is both confidential and non-confidential
and located in file cabinets in the United States Attorney offices.
Confidential materials are in locked file drawers and safes, and
nonconfidential materials are in unlocked file drawers. Offices are
locked during non-working hours and are secured by either Federal
Protective Service, United States Postal Service, or private building
guards. Information that is retrievable by CRTs within various U.S.
Attorney's offices and the Executive Office for United States Attorneys
requires user identification numbers which are issued to authorized
employees of the Department of Justice.

Retention and disposal:
Case files involving no sentence, or sentences of ten years or
less, are destroyed ten years after case is closed. Case files
involving sentences of more than ten years are destroyed one year after
the date of termination of sentence. Both are in accordance with
approved retention and disposal schedules.
