Except as provided in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, Executive Order 12356, as implemented by Directive No. 1 and this Regulation, provides the only basis for classifying information.

Information may not be classified unless its disclosure reasonably could be expected to cause damage to the national security.
