(b)There shall be archives for orderly storage and expedient retrieval of all raw data, documentation, protocols, specimens, and interim and final reports.

Raw data and specimens may be retained elsewhere provided that the archives have specific reference to those other locations.
(c)An individual shall be identified as responsible for the archives.
(d)Only authorized personnel shall enter the archives.
(e)Material retained or referred to in the archives shall be indexed to permit expedient retrieval. [43 FR 60013, Dec. 22, 1978, as amended at 52 FR 33781, Sept. 4, 1987; 67 FR 9585, Mar. 4, 2002]
