The UAP Records Collection is the national archive of UAP records established by the FY2024 NDAA, housed at NARA as Record Group 615. Federal agencies — and, per Rep. eric-burlison, contractors and FFRDCs such as MITRE and MIT Lincoln Laboratory — are directed to identify, review, digitize, and transfer appropriate UAP records to NARA for public release (src-burlison-mitre-press-release-2026-05, src-burlison-mitre-uap-records-2026-05).
It is the surviving “National-Archives-only” outcome of the uap-disclosure-act after the UAP Records Review Board and the recovered-material / eminent-domain provisions were stripped in the FY2024 NDAA conference (src-schumer-rounds-uap-colloquy-2023). Burlison’s 2026 FFRDC inquiries (mitre, mit-lincoln-laboratory) operationalize the transfer mandate by extending records-preservation demands to private contractors — running parallel to the executive-branch PURSUE disclosure rollout.
