Controlled Unclassified Information Program

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing this Statement of Policy to set forth its expectation regarding the treatment of controlled unclassified information (CUI). This final policy statement describes how the NRC will comply with regulations issued by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) that direct agencies to minimize the risk of unauthorized disclosure of controlled unclassified information while allowing timely access by authorized holders. This policy statement aligns with similar actions taken by other Federal agencies to communicate changes in agency CUI policy to align with NARA requirements. During the transition to the CUI program, all elements of the NRC's existing Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information (SUNSI) program will remain in place.
