Postal Service October 3, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Postal Service is proposing to revise Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM[supreg]) 601.10 to adopt new mandatory marking standards for parcels containing mailable hazardous material that will align with the revised requirements provided by the Department of Transportation (DOT). This proposed rule also provides terminology and categorization changes needed to respond to the pending elimination of the ``Other Regulated Material'' (ORM-D) category and the partial elimination of the ``Consumer Commodity'' category by the DOT.
