Act prohibits the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) from disclosing DMF
information during the three-year period following an individual's
death (Limited Access DMF), unless the person requesting the

pursuant to certain criteria in a program that the Secretary

203 to the Director of NTIS.
The final rule requires that a Person seeking access to the Limited
Access DMF establish a legitimate fraud prevention interest or
legitimate business purpose pursuant to a law, governmental rule,
regulation, or fiduciary duty. The Certification Application Form
collects information that NTIS will use to evaluate whether the
respondent qualifies to receive the Limited Access Death Master File
under the rule.

Master File.
