11
THE BURDEN OF RESPONSE
The NARA Capstone Approach and Capstone General Records Schedule (GRS) clarify guidelines and timelines for electronic records retention. By the end of 2019, federal agencies must manage all permanent records in an electronic format. This approach is meant to:
• Reduce reliance on paper files• Comply with federal FOIA requirements• Increase visibility and agency transparency by providing easier access to
public records• Reduce costs of responding to records requests
12
THE BURDEN OF RESPONSE
Responding to records requests is solely the responsibility of the agency. The problem is many agencies continue to tackle the burden of retaining communications and responding to records requests by using traditional, antiquated manual processes.

POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS
üBe clear and explicit (e.g. the following are “allowed”, all else NOT)
üTraining is CRITICAL (at regular intervals, for new hires and when there are any updates)
üUse a system that leaves an audit trail proving employees are aware
üProhibit iMessage / “over the top” apps
üKnow your state’s record laws
15
SMS RECORD RETENTION DO NOTS
üTo maintain SMS metadata don’tüUse screenshots of phoneüForward texts to emailüRely on wireless carriers (3-5 days)üExport messages to an excel file
New Jersey Supreme Court Holds that Public Records Metadata Are Themselves Public RecordsNov 6, 2017

PROBLEM: APPS THAT CIRCUMVENT ARCHIVINGSome apps are designed to destroy or hide encrypted messages. These are impossible to archive and can lead to litigation, scandals, and community distrust.
