In 1966, the Federal Records Center (FRC) accessioned Oak Ridge records. In the process, all classified documents were removed from their original folders--thus destroying the integrity of the records. In 1971-1972, the classified material itself was split up for declassification purposes during the Comprehensive Classification Review Project (CCRP). The classified records were kept at Oak Ridge while the newly declassified records went to the East Point records center. Later, when the 1971-1972 declassification procedures were found wanting, the declassified records at East Point were returned to Oak Ridge. It is therefore difficult to determine if specific records are at Oak Ridge or at East Point. At present, OR and DOE's Office of Safeguards and Security are working to approve the East Point facilities as a repository for DOE classified information. If such approval is forth-coming, these materials will be sent to East Point for permanent storage.

More recently, both the Oak Ridge Field Office and Martin Marietta have sent shipments to East Point. For example, in 1988, OR transferred 347 cubic feet of records to the FRC facility.

Although the highest classification for these documents is unknown, the great majority of them are unclassified.
