    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 14, 1998, the Postal Service 
    published a Final Rule (63 FR 37946) for the rate, fee, and 
    classification changes that resulted from the R97-1 rate filing. That 
    Final Rule contained an error in the denomination for Express Mail 
    postage stamps and an error in the rates for bulk insurance. These 
    errors are corrected in this Final Rule.
        On December 28, 1998, the Postal Service published a Final Rule (63 
    FR 71374) that outlined new location-based post office box fees. That 
    Final Rule contained some slight errors that are corrected in this 
    Final Rule.
