/us/cfr/t32/s§ 2400.16·A research copy — for the controlling text, always check the official state or federal source. Not legal advice.
(a)Documents classified derivatively on the basis of source documents or classification guides shall bear all markings prescribed in § 2400.12 of this part and Directive No. 1 as are applicable. Information for these markings shall be taken from the source document or instructions in the appropriate classification guide. When markings are omitted because they may reveal a confidential source or relationship not otherwise evident, as described in § 2400.12 of this part, the information may not be used as a basis for derivative classification.
(b)The authority for classification shall be shown as directed in Directive No. 1.
