RESCISSION: NPIC Instruction No. 5-1, dated 21 November 1968
1. The NPIC regulatory system is comprised of three types of
issuances -- NPIC Instructions, NPIC Notices, and
Bulletins.
a. Instructions are the basic medium for prescribing
directives of a continuing nature. They establish
organization, delegate authority, assign respon-
sibilities and prescribe policy.
b. Notices are used to disseminate transitory
information to military and civilian employees
of the Center, and to announce personnel assign-
ments. Notices will carry an expiration date,
and they need not be filed as permanent issuances.
Employee Bulletins are used to
disseminate transitory information of interest
to all employees employed in the Building.
(Example: change in cafeteria hours.)
2. The normal distribution (Distribution A) of Instructions and
Notices will be to the working level of each Group and Staff. However,
selected issuances may be given either an "All Employee" or'timited"
dissemination on a need-to-know basis. Employee Bulletins
will be distributed to all military and civilian personnel assigned to
the Center (including IAS, SPAD, DC-2 and DI-8), and selected issuances
may be forwarded to and to the OBGI/Map Library Division for infor-
mation. mployee Bulletins will normally be unclassified.

3. NPIC regulatory issuances will be published only upon approval
of the Office of the Director, NPIC. The Support Staff, NPIC, is res-
ponsible for insuring necessary coordination, approving format and
numbering, making arrangements for the publication and dissemination
and maintaining the master file for all NPIC regulatory issuances. NPIC
components should forward drafts of proposed NPIC Notices and Instructions
to Chief, Support Staff for coordination and issuance.
4. Both Instructions and Notices will bear the appropriate subject
category title and category number as reflected in the following list.
Each successive issuance within a particular category will then be
numbered in ascending sequence. However, when an Instruction is being
published to update an earlier Instruction on the same subject, the
newer version may carry the same number followed by the word "Revised".
This will insure continuity in cross-references which may exist in
other documentation. Existing NPIC regulatory issuances which are not
titled or numbered in accordance with the provisions of this Instruction
will be retitled or renumbered as they are revised.

and personnel within the Center will clearly state that fact.
6. Internal component issuances are instructions written exclu-
sively for the guidance and direction of personnel and activities under
the direct supervision of a component chief. They may be issued by a
