The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) efforts to control the transfer of agency-developed competitively sensitive aeronautics information to U.S. industry's foreign competitors was reviewed. Specifically, areas addressed were: (1) identify how NASA currently controls the disclosure of sensitive information; (2) determine whether NASA has an information control problem; and (3) ascertain what actions, if any, NASA planned to take to improve its information control program. A management review of Ames Research Center and NASA's procedures for handling requests for competitively sensitive information under the Freedom of Information Act was also evaluated. Results are presented.
