(e) Unsafe Condition
This AD was prompted by several reports
of connecting rod failures resulting in
uncontained engine failure and in-flight
shutdowns (IFSDs). The FAA is issuing this
AD to prevent connecting rod failure. The
unsafe condition, if not addressed, could
result in engine failure, an IFSD, and loss of
control of the aircraft.

Currently, the standards in DMM
section 203.4.8.1 do not require the use
of optional endorsement lines or carrier
route information lines on USPS
Marketing Mail letters in full carrier
route trays.
The Postal Service is proposing to
amend the standards in DMM section
203.8.1 to require optional endorsement
lines or carrier route information lines
on all USPS Marketing Mail carrier
route letters.
The Postal Service is proposing to
implement this change effective August
25, 2024.
We believe that the proposed revision
will provide consistency and clarity for
carrier route mail preparation.
Although exempt from the notice and
comment requirements of the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553(b), (c)) regarding proposed
rulemaking by 39 U.S.C. 410(a), the
Postal Service invites public comment
on the following proposed revisions to
Mailing Standards of the United States
Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual
(DMM), incorporated by reference in the
Code of Federal Regulations.
We will publish an appropriate

these changes.

material in your comments that you
consider to be confidential or

Currently, the Postal Service has three
parcel processing categories:
machinable, irregular, and
nonmachinable. The Postal Service is
proposing to simplify the parcel
processing categories by making
revisions to the physical standards of
the machinable processing category and
consolidating the irregular and
nonmachinable processing categories
and renaming it ‘‘Nonstandard Parcels’’.
The Postal Service is proposing to
revise the ‘‘machinable’’ processing
category by removing the minimum size
dimensions requirement and, except for
USPS Marketing Mail parcels, the
minimum weight requirement. Except
for cylindrical tubes and rolls or similar
shaped pieces, and for labeling
requirements in Publication 52,
Hazardous, Restricted, and Perishable
Mail, the minimum size of a machinable
parcel will be determined by if it is large
enough to hold the required delivery
address, return address, mailing labels,
postage, barcode, endorsements, and
other mail markings on a single optical
plane without bending, folding, or
overlapping. All labels and markings
must meet the applicable specifications
(e.g., DMM, Publication 199, Parcel
Labeling Guide). A parcel that does not
meet this requirement will be
considered nonmailable. Except for
USPS Marketing Mail parcels, which
will continue to have the 3.5 ounce
minimum to be a machinable parcel, the
minimum weight requirement for other
parcels will no longer be a factor in
determining machinability.
The proposed ‘‘Nonstandard Parcels’’
processing category will continue to
have a size and weight component that
will consist of parcels that exceed the
maximum dimensions of a machinable
parcel, parcels that weigh less than the
3.5-ounce minimum weight for USPS
Marketing Mail parcels only, and
parcels that exceed the 25 pound
maximum weight for a machinable
parcel. The ‘‘Nonstandard Parcels’’
processing category will also have a
‘‘Characteristics’’ component that will
define the criteria that will be used to
determine if a parcel is nonstandard
(e.g., cylindrical tubes and rolls,
packaging). The ‘‘Characteristics’’
component of ‘‘Nonstandard Parcels’’
will be supported by DMM sections
601.3.0, Packaging, and 601.4.0,
Acceptable Mailing Containers. The
packaging criteria in DMM section
