Subject: Policy for Utilization of Room BC214

Recently there have been a lot of materials arbitrarily placed in the Water 
Resources Division (WRD) storage area, Room BC214.  This area was acquired 
to eliminate safety hazards by removing the bookcases, filing cabinets and 
boxes from the hallways.  In order to keep the area under control, approval 
must be given by the Management Support Section before storing any items in 
this area.  

If you have already placed any material in this room, please make sure it 
is properly labeled with the name of the office, a contact name and telephone 
number on the front of each item.

The following policy is established for the use of WRD storage space 
(Room BC214) and is effective immediately:

1.  Consider sending records to the Washington National Records Center.  
They will be accepted by item number as listed in U. S. Geological Survey 
General Records Disposition Schedule.

2.  If not appropriate for storage in the Records Center, consider 
transferring to the warehouse in Herndon.  The warehouse will store any 
items which offices consider important and will be utilized in the future.

3.  If material is needed for distribution or referenced on a frequent basis, 
a request to store the items should be sent to the Chief, Management Support 
Section (Connie Magaha, MS 403) indicating the length of time the items will 
need to be stored.  Approval must be given by the Chief, Management Support 
Section, before items can be stored in this storage area.

4.  After items have been approved for storage, a label should be placed on 
front of each item.  The label should contain the name of the office, a 
contact and telephone number.  Sample of label:  Management Support Section, 
Contact:  Connie Magaha, ext. 5037.

Thank you for assisting us in this effort.
