Government Paperwork Elimination Act
（重定向自Gpea）
The Government Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA, Pub.L. 105–277 Title XVII) requires that, when practicable, Federal agencies use electronic forms, electronic filing, and electronic signatures to conduct official business with the public by 2003. In doing this, agencies will create records with business, legal and, in some cases, historical value. This guidance focuses on records management issues involving records that have been created using electronic signature technology.
