GUIDANCE FOR THE PROTECTION OF

“FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” (FOUO) INFORMATION

1. General. The “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” (FOUO) marking is assigned to information at the time of its creation. It is used to designate official government information that may be withheld from the public under exemption 2 through 9 of the Freedom of Information Act. Use of the marking does not mean that the information cannot be released to the public, only that it must be reviewed by the government prior to its release to determine whether a significant and legitimate government purpose is served by withholding the information or portions of it.

2. Identification Markings.

a. An unclassified document containing FOUO information will be marked “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” at the bottom of the front cover (if any), on each page containing FOUO information, on the back page, and on the outside of the back cover (if any). No portion markings will be shown.

b. Within a classified document, an individual page that contains both FOUO and classified information will be marked at the top and bottom with the highest security classification of information appearing on the page. If an individual portion contains FOUO information but no classified information, the portion will be marked, FOUO.

c. Any “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” information released is required to be marked with the following statement prior to transfer:

This document contains information EXEMPT FROM MANDATORY DISCLOSURE under FOIA. Exemptions ____ apply.

d. Removal of the “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” marking can only be accomplished by the originator or other competent authority. When the “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” status is terminated, all know holders will be notified to the extent possible.

3. Dissemination. “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” information may be disseminated by contractors to their employees and subcontractors who have a need for the information in connection with a classified contract.

4. Storage. During working hours, “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” information shall be placed in an out-of-sight location if the work area is accessible to persons who do not have a need for the information.

During nonworking hours, the information shall be stored to preclude unauthorized access. Filing such material with other unclassified record in unlocked files or desks, is adequate when internal building security is provided during nonworking hours. When such internal security control is not exercised, locked buildings or rooms will provide adequate after-hours protection or the material can be stored in locked receptacles such as file cabinets, desks, or bookcases.

5. Transmission. “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” information may be sent via first-class mail or parcel post. Bulky shipments may be sent by fourth-class mail.

6. Disposition. When no longer needed, FOUO information may be disposed of by tearing each copy into pieces to preclude reconstructing and placing it in a regular trash container.

7. Unauthorized disclosure of “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” does not constitute a security violation but the contracting officer should be informed of any unauthorized disclosure. The unauthorized disclosure of FOUO information protected by the Privacy Act may result in criminal sanctions.
