(1) If at least 51% of the total number of copies (not number of addressed pieces) in the combined mailing or in the copalletized mailing can qualify for ``NEWS'' treatment, then all containers or pallets in such a mailing are labeled ``NEWS'' on Line 2, unless the mailer chooses to use ``PER.'' This final rule allows mailers to prepare and consolidate more than one Periodicals publication or edition of a publication into a single production mailstream by providing the following standards for the application of the ``NEWS'' and ``PER'' designations in such cases: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In this rulemaking, the Postal Service announces the adoption of standards initially proposed on Octoin the Federal Register (67 FR 66094-66096) for determining when to use ``NEWS''-a designation for ``newspaper''-and ``PER''-a designation for the class name ``Periodicals''-as part of the information on Line 2 (the content line) of sack, tray, and pallet labels used for combined mailings and copalletized mailings. This final rule also clarifies mailing standards for identifying the two different methods under which a Periodicals combined mailing may be prepared and to note the requirements for submitting postage statements under each method.įOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Neil Berger at (703) 292-3645, Jane Stefaniak at (703) 292-3548, or Marc McCrery at (202) 268-2704. This final rule allows mailers to prepare and consolidate more than one Periodicals publication or edition of a publication into a single production mailstream. SUMMARY: This final rule clarifies when it is permissible to use the designation ``NEWS'' rather than the designation ``PER'' on Line 2 (the content line) of labels that identify sacks, trays, and pallets containing copies of Periodicals publications prepared in combined mailings or in copalletized mailings.Ĭombined mailings and copalletized mailings often consist of copies that would be eligible for the designation ``NEWS'' on the container label and other copies that would be eligible only for the designation ``PER'' on the container label.
