containers), labeled according to
labeling list L201. These standards
assured that the OMX and the mixed
ADC separations were always made, and
the sacks that were prepared could then
be presented directly for acceptance or
placed on pallets in accordance with
DMM 705.8.10.2.
The separation of mail destinating
within the ‘‘OMX’’ surface reach of the
mailer’s plant (or entry point) from the
remaining mixed ADC mail is crucial for
maintaining acceptable service
performance, for the benefit of both
Periodicals customers and USPS®
processing operations.
On January 22, 2012, the Postal
Service revised DMM 705.8.10.2 to
allow mailers to place bundles of flatsize Periodicals directly onto mixed area
distribution center (ADC) and origin
mixed ADC (OMX) pallets, but retained
the existing language describing these
pallet levels as optional. The longstanding language that required the
mixed ADC pallet to be labeled in
accordance with labeling list L004 was
also retained. As a result of this change,
some mailers have discontinued the
practice of making the mixed ADC and
OMX separations when placing bundles
of flat-size Periodicals directly on
pallets.
It was not the intent of the January 22,
2012 revision to eliminate the
requirement to perform the OMX and
mixed ADC separations. The Postal
Service therefore proposes to revise
DMM 705.8.10.2 to provide the option
for mailers to prepare both the OMX and
mixed ADC pallet at no minimum
volume threshold. The Postal Service
proposes to require the preparation of
both pallets at volumes of 100 pounds
or more, and require sacking of these
separations if the mailer elects not to
form either pallet level below the 100pound threshold. The Postal Service
also proposes that the mixed ADC pallet
will be prepared in accordance with
labeling list L009 instead of L004, as is
currently required. If these new
standards are adopted, they will be
effective January 28, 2013.
Although these changes are intended
to be effective January 28, 2013, to
provide for the most expeditious
processing of their mixed ADC and
OMX Periodicals mailpieces in USPS®
networks, mailers are strongly
encouraged to begin using these new
standards immediately.
Although the Postal Service is
exempted by 39 U.S.C. 410(a) from the
notice and comment requirements of the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C
553(b), (c)), we invite public comments
on the following proposed revisions to
