Federal Records

Federal records are official documents created or received by a government agency during its operations, which serve as evidence of its activities or decisions. These records include reports, memos, correspondence, and electronic files that are important for transparency, accountability, and historical documentation. They are preserved according to laws and regulations to ensure that government functions and decisions can be reviewed and understood over time. Proper management of federal records is essential for maintaining public trust and ensuring legal and administrative requirements are met.
