§ 2.9 - Derivative Classification Authority.

Designations of derivative classification authority for national security information are contained in Treasury Order 102-19 (or successor order). The authority to derivatively classify inheres within the office and may be exercised by a person acting in that capacity. There may be additional redelegations of derivative classification authority made pursuant to TO 102-19 (or successor order). Officials identified in Treasury Order 102-19 (or successor order) may also administratively control and decontrol sensitive but unclassified information using the legend “Limited Official Use” and may redelegate their authority to control and decontrol. Such redelegations shall be in writing on TD F 71-01.20 “Designation of Controlling/Decontrolling Officials” (or successor form).
