Classification Review Procedure
1. In March of this year CRP 79-19 was issued authorizing reviewers
to use a registry number (under certain circumstances) in the absence of
a document number, a practice that reviewers had been following for some
months. It has been decided that this is not a sound practice because of
the difficulty in determining the correct registry number and the uncer-
tainty that it appears on all copies of the document.
2. The use of a registry number in the document identification
number field is discontinued as of this date. Reviewers will use only
the unique identification number of the document copied exactly as it
appears. The only exceptions to this rule are spelled out in CRP 79-24,
which provides for a special indicator for codeword material, and CRP
79-37, which concerns handwritten numbers.
