(d)Institute reference and retrieval procedures and controls that:
(1)Facilitate the finding, charging out, and refiling of records, including safeguards against loss during transit; and
(2)Ensure that access to electronic records minimizes the risk of unauthorized additions, deletions, or alterations;
(e)Issue appropriate instructions to all agency employees on handling and protecting records;
(f)Maintain records and nonrecord materials separately, in accordance with § 1222.16;
(g)Maintain personal files separately from records in accordance with § 1222.20; and
