Inadvertent Addition of New FSS Zones

Twenty-seven new FSS zones were inadvertently added to the L006 Labeling List effective July 1, 2016, published in the Labeling List Changes section of the June 9, 2016 Postal Bulletin (22443). To remedy this situation, the newly added zones will be removed from the L006 Labeling List effective August 1, 2016. In addition, mailers may take advantage of the 30-day grace period and opt to continue to use the June 2016 L006 list. Alternatively, if software providers and mail service providers have already implemented the July list, they may remove the 27 zones from the list where applicable.

The 27 zones to be removed are as follows: 02360, 02738-39, 02769-70, 02878, 02921, 07021, 07027, 07054, 07059, 07069, 07076, 07410, 07435, 07438, 07460, 07480, 23120, 23691, 64050-54, 64056, and 64058.
