Here are the minutes from the meeting where this was decided. 4/21/18:

"In attendance: President Rich Hanson, Scottsdale AZ, Fishers IN; EVP Randy Cameron, Springfield MO; CFO Keith Sessions, Burlington KY; District I Andy Argenio, Smithfield RI; District II, Eric Williams, Schenectady NY; District III Mark Radcliff, St. Marys WV; District IV Jay Marsh, High Point NC; District V Bob Brogdon, Powder Springs GA; District VI Gary Himes, Kansas City MO; District VIII Lawrence Harville, Hurst, TX; District IX Jim Tiller, Custer SD; District X Lawrence Tougas, Fairfield CA; District XI Bryan Wood, Meridian ID District XI; Executive Director Dave Mathewson; Greg Principato, NAA, Washington, D.C.; Felix Gora, AMA Legal Counsel, Felix Gora, Rendigs, Fry, Kiely & Dennis.

"Tony Stillman spoke of AMA national records, forms, and documentation. Information gets forwarded to the Contest Board chairman who verifies information then Tony updates records online. Apparently the NAA is also certifying US national records. The question is should we have two organizations certifying the records? Per G. Principato, if it is an FAI event, NAA should certify it. If it is strictly an AMA event, AMA can handle it however it wants. Rich feels that all national records should come to AMA, and AMA should manage its own database of records and forward the rest to NAA. NAA is willing to share its database with AMA. As a side note, NAA charges $100 to process national records.

"Motion V: Moved by T. Jesky (District VII), seconded by E. Williams (District II), NAA to process National and World records, AMA to process AMA records, but all submissions are to come through AMA.
Motion passed (Abstention NAA). "
