    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    On December 21, 2016, the Postal ServiceTM published a final rule replacing the product name “Standard Mail” with the new name “USPS Marketing Mail” throughout subchapter 240 of Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM). See, 81 FR 93606, 93613-93615. This rebranding is intended to enhance the public's perception of this service, and improve its position in the marketplace.
