DMM  Public  Subscriptions 

Customers  may  order  the  new  Domestic  Mail  Manual  (DMM)  Issue  46 
from  the  Superintendent  of  Documents,  U.S.  Government  Printing  Office. 
Available  to  the  public  only  by  subscription,  the  new  DMM  costs  $56  for  two 
issues  and  includes  the  DMM  Transition  Book. 

Customers  should  use  the  order  form  on  page  33.  Customers  may  also 
use  this  form  to  subscribe  to  the  International  Mail  Manual  (IMM).  Post 
offices  and  postal  business  centers  may  make  copies  of  the  order  form  for 
customers. 

Employees  should  be  aware  that  the  Postal  Service  does  not  handle 
public  subscriptions  for  these  two  manuals.  When  a  customer  changes 
mailing  addresses  or  wants  to  inquire  about  a  DMM  or  IMM  subscription,  the 
customer  should  send  correspondence  to  the  appropriate  address  shown 
above  the  order  blank.—  Information  Systems,  8-5-93 

Improper  Return  of  Presorted  Flat-Size  Mailpieces 

Postal  customers  report  the  improper  return  of  presorted  flat-size  mail- 
pieces  for  an  additional  10-cents  postage.  Originating  postal  facilities 
accepted  these  pieces  when  mailed  at  the  correct  .248-cents  First-Class 
presorted  rate  with  a  5-cent  surcharge  added  because  the  presorted  pieces 
weighed  less  than  1  ounce.  Employees  should  not  return  these  pieces  for 
additional  postage  when  the  mailpiece  bears  .298-cents  meter  postage. 

In  addition,  bulk  mail  entry  employees  must  check  Presorted  First-Class 
mailpieces  at  the  time  of  mailing  to  determine  whether  they  are  subject  to  the 
nonstandard  surcharge  and  collect  it,  when  applicable.  Postmasters  and 
delivery  unit  employees  at  offices  other  than  the  office  of  origin  who  find 
metered  pieces  that  do  not  bear  an  indication  that  the  nonstandard  surcharge 
has  been  collected  should  assume  that  it  was  paid  at  the  time  of  mailing. 

After  the  Bank  of  New  York  brought  this  problem  to  USPS  attention,  several 
mailers  also  expressed  similar  incidences.  Postmasters  must  ensure  that 
each  of  their  employees  are  aware  of  correct  operating  procedures  about 
assessing  nonstandard  surcharges  and  handling  shortpaid  mailpieces. 

Each  piece  of  First-Class  Mail  weighing  1  ounce  or  less  that  exceeds  the 
size  limits  in  Domestic  Mail  Manual  (DMM)  (old)  353.1  or  (new)  C1 00.3.0  is 
assessed  the  nonstandard  surcharge  fee  of  10  cents  when  the  piece  is 
mailed  at  a  single-piece  postage  rate.  A  surcharge  of  5  cents  is  assessed  for 
each  piece  of  nonstandard  First-Class  Mail  mailed  at  a  presorted  postage 
rate.  See  DMM  (old)  315  or  (new)  R 100. 11.0  for  the  correct  references 
concerning  these  mailings.  Additionally,  DMM  (new)  P01 1.1.5  provides  the 
correct  current  procedures  for  handling  shortpaid  mailpieces.

515  Absence  for  Family  Care  or  Serious 
Health  Condition  of  Employee 

515.1  Purpose  of  515.  This  section  provides  poli- 
cies to  comply  with  the  Family  and  Medical  Leave  Act 
of  1993.  Nothing  in  this  section  is  intended  to  limit 
employees'  rights  or  benefits  available  under  other 
current  policies  (see  511,  512,  513,  514),  or  collective 
bargaining  agreements.  Likewise,  nothing  increases 
the  amount  of  paid  leave  beyond  what  is  provided  for 
under  current  leave  policies  or  in  any  collective  bar- 
gaining agreement.  The  conditions  for  authorizing  the 
use  of  annual  leave,  sick  leave,  or  LWOP  are  modified 
only  to  the  extent  described  in  this  section. 

515.2  Definitions.  The  following  definitions  apply 
for  the  purposes  of  the  section: 

a.  Son  or  daughter— biological,  adopted,  or  foster 
child,  stepchild,  legal  ward,  or  child  who  stands  in 
the  position  of  a  son  or  daughter  to  the  employee, 
who  is  under  18  years  of  age  or  who  is  over  18 
and  incapable  of  self-care  because  of  mental  or 
physical  disability. 

b.  Parent— biological  parent  or  individual  who  stood 
in  that  position  to  the  employee  when  the  em- 
ployee was  a  child. 

c.  Spouse— husband  or  wife. 

d.  Serious  health  condition— illness,  injury,  impair- 
ment, or  physical  or  mental  condition  that  involves 
any  of  the  following: 

(1)  Any  period  of  incapacity  or  treatment  in  con- 
nection with  or  consequent  to  inpatient  care  in 
a  hospital,  hospice,  or  residential  medical  care 
facility. 

(2)  Any  period  of  incapacity  requiring  absence 
from  work  or  regular  daily  activities  of  more 
than  3  calendar  days,  that  also  involves  con- 
tinuing treatment  by  (or  under  the  supervision 
of)  a  health  care  provider. 

(3)  Continuing  treatment  by  (or  under  the  supervi- 
sion of)  a  health  care  provider  (a)  for  a  chron- 
ic or  long-term  health  condition  that  is 
incurable  or  so  serious  that,  if  not  treated, 
would  likely  result  in  a  period  of  incapacity  of 
more  than  3  days;  or  (b)  for  prenatal  care. 

Note:  Voluntary  or  cosmetic  treatments  (such  as 
most  treatments  for  orthodontia  or  acne)  which  are 
not"  medically  necessary  are  not  "serious  health 
conditions,"  unless  inpatient  hospital  care  is  re- 
quired. Restorative  dental  surgery  after  an  ac- 
cident or  removal  of  cancerous  growths  is  a 
serious  health  condition  provided  all  the  other 
conditions  are  met.  Treatments  for  allergies  or 
stress,  or  for  substance  abuse,  are  serious  health 
conditions  if  all  the  conditions  of  the  regulations 
are  met.  Prenatal  care  is  included  as  a  serious 


health  condition.  Routine  preventative  physical  ex- 
aminations are  excluded, 
e.  Health  care  pro vider— doctor  of  medicine  or  os- 
teopathy, Christian  Science  practitioner  listed  with 
the  First  Church  of  Christ,  Scientist  in  Boston,  MA, 
or  other  attending  practitioner  (see  513.364). 

515.3  Eligibility.  To  request  leave  under  this  sec- 
tion, an  employee  must  have  been  employed  by  the 
Postal  Service  for  an  accumulated  total  of  12  months,

during  the  12-month  period  before  the  date  leave 
begins. 

515.4  Leave  Requirements 

515.41  Conditions.  Eligible  employees  must  be  al- 
lowed an  accumulated  total  of  up  to  12  workweeks  of 
leave  within  a  Postal  Service  leave  year  for  one  or 
more  of  the  following: 

a.  Because  of  the  birth  of  a  son  or  daughter  of  the

daughter.  Entitlement  to  leave  for  this  condition 
expires  1  year  after  the  birth.

with  the  employee  for  adoption  or  foster  care. 
Entitlement  to  leave  for  this  condition  expires  1 
year  after  the  placement. 

c.  In  order  to  care  for  the  spouse,  son,  daughter,  or 
parent  of  the  employee  if  the  spouse,  son,  daugh- 
ter, or  parent  has  a  serious  health  condition.

the  employee  unable  to  perform  the  functions  of 
the  employee's  position. 

515.42  Leave  Type.  Absences  approved  under  this 
section  are  charged  as  annual  leave,  sick  leave,  or 
leave  without  pay,  or  a  combination  of  these.  Leave  is 
charged  consistent  with  current  leave  policies  and 
applicable  collective  bargaining  agreements.  Approv- 
ing officials  should  note  "FMLA"  in  the  approval  block 
of  the  Form  3971,  Request  for  or  Notification  of 
Absence. 

515.43  Authorized  Hours.  Under  this  section,  full- 
time  employees,  are  entitled  to  up  to  480  hours  of 
leave  (i.e.,  12  weeks  times  40  hours  per  week)  within 
a  leave  year.  Employees  with  weekly  schedules  of 
less  than  40  hours  are  entitled  to  12  times  the  number 
of  hours  normally  scheduled  in  their  workweek.  For 
example,  a  part-time  employee  with  a  normal  sched- 
ule of  30  hours  a  week  is  entitled  to  360  hours  (12 
weeks  times  30  hours).  A  part-time  employee  who 
does  not  have  a  normal  weekly  schedule  is  entitled  to 
the  total  number  of  hours  worked  in  the  previous  12 
weeks,  not  including  overtime  hours.  Leave  in  addition

Postal  Bulletin 


21847,  8-5-93,  Page  5 


may  be  granted  in  accordance  with  other  leave  poli- 
cies or  collective  bargaining  agreements  (see  511,

515.5  Documentation 

515.51  General.  An  employee  must  provide  a  Form 
3971,  Request  for  or  Notification  of  Absence,  together 
with  documentation  supporting  the  request,  at  least  30 
days  before  the  absence  if  the  need  for  the  leave  is 
foreseeable.  If  30  days  notice  is  not  practicable,  no- 
tice must  be  given  as  soon  as  practicable.  Ordinarily 
at  least  verbal  notification  should  be  given  within  1  or 
2  business  days  of  when  the  need  for  leave  becomes 
known  to  the  employee.  The  employee  will  be  pro- 
vided a  notice  detailing  the  specific  expectations  and 
obligations  and  consequences  of  a  failure  to  meet 
these  obligations.  Additional  documentation  may  be 
requested,  which  must  be  provided  within  15  days  or 
as  soon  as  practical  under  the  particular  facts  and 
circumstances.  During  an  absence,  the  employee 
must  keep  his  or  her  supervisor  informed  of  intentions 
to  return  to  work  and  of  status  changes  which  could 
affect  his  or  her  ability  to  return  to  work.  Failure  to 
provide  documentation  can  result  in  the  denial  of 
family  and  medical  leave  under  this  section. 

515.52  New  Son  or  Daughter.  An  employee  re- 
questing time  off  because  of  the  birth  of  the  em- 
ployee's son  or  daughter  and  to  care  for  the  son  or 
daughter,  or  because  of  the  placement  of  a  son  or 
daughter  with  the  employee  for  adoption  or  foster 
care,  may  be  required  to  provide  the  birth  or  place- 
ment date. 

515.53  Care  of  Others  for  Medical  Reasons.    An 

employee  requesting  time  off  to  care  for  a  spouse, 
parent,  son,  or  daughter  who  has  a  serious  health 
condition  may  be  required  to  provide  documentation 
from  the  health  care  provider  stating  the  date  the 
serious  health  condition  began,  probable  duration  of 
the  illness,  appropriate  medical  facts,  and  when  the 
employee  will  be  needed  to  provide  such  care  or 
psychological  support.  When  the  request  is  to  care  for 
someone  other  than  a  biological  parent  or  child,  ap- 
propriate explanation  of  the  relationship  may  be  re- 
quired. 

515.54  Additional  Medical  Opinions.  A  second 
medical  opinion  by  a  health  care  provider  who  is 
designated  and  paid  for  by  the  Postal  Service  may  be 
required.  In  case  of  a  difference  between  the  original 
and  second  opinion,  a  third  opinion  by  a  health  care 
provider  may  be  required.  The  third  health  care  pro- 
vider is  jointly  designated  or  approved  by  manage- 
ment and  the  employee,  and  the  third  opinion  is  final. 
The  Postal  Service  pays  the  health  care  provider  for 
the  third  opinion.  A  health  care  provider  selected  for 
the  second  or  third  opinion  may  not  be  employed  by 


the  Postal  Service  on  a  regular  basis.  Recertifications 
of  a  medical  condition  may  also  be  required  during 
absences. 

515.55  Employee  Incapacitation.  An  employee  re- 
questing time  off  under  this  section  because  of  his  or 
her  own  incapacitation  must  satisfy  the  documentation 
requirements  for  sick  leave  in  513.31  through  513.38 
or  for  leave  without  pay  in  514.4.  If  absence  exceeds 
21  calendar  days,  evidence  of  ability  to  return  to  work 
with  or  without  limitations  must  be  submitted.  If  addi- 
tional medical  opinions  are  required,  they  are  admin- 
istered as  described  in  515.54. 

515.6  Intermittent  Leave  or  Reduced 
Schedule 

515.61  New  Son  or  Daughter.  Leave  requested 
because  of  the  birth  of  the  employee's  son  or  daugh- 
ter and  to  care  for  the  son  or  daughter  or  because  of 
the  placement  of  a  son  or  daughter  with  the  employee 
for  adoption  or  foster  care  may  be  taken  on  an  inter- 
mittent basis  or  by  establishing  a  reduced  work 
schedule  only  if  the  request  for  such  intermittent  leave 
or  schedule  modification  is  approved.  Approval  is 
based  on  employee  need,  Postal  Service  need,  and 
costs  to  the  Postal  Service. 

515.62  Care  of  Others  for  Medical  Reasons  or 
Employee  Incapacitation.  Leave  requested  to  care 
for  a  spouse,  son,  daughter,  or  parent  with  a  serious 
health  condition  or  due  to  the  employee's  health  con- 
dition may  be  taken  on  an  intermittent  basis  or  by 
establishing  a  reduced  work  schedule  when  medically 
necessary. 

515.63  Temporary  Change  in  Duty  Assignment.    If 

an  employee  requests  intermittent  leave  or  a  reduced 
work  schedule,  the  Postal  Service  may  assign  the 
employee,  with  equivalent  pay  and  benefits,  temporar- 
ily to  the  duties  of  another  position  consistent  with 
applicable  collective  bargaining  agreements  and  regu- 
lations if  such  an  assignment  better  accommodates 
the  recurring  periods  of  absence. 

515.64  FLSA  Status.  An  employee  exempt  from  the 
Fair  Labor  Standards  Act  (FLSA)  normally  may  not 
take  leave  in  less  than  1-day  increments.  However, 
leave  taken  under  this  section  on  an  intermittent  basis 
or  by  temporarily  establishing  a  reduced  work  sched- 
ule can  be  taken  in  less  than  1-day  increments  with- 
out affecting  the  employee's  FLSA-exempt  status. 

515.7  Return  to  Position.  Employees  taking  leave 
under  this  section  are  entitled  to  return  to  their  posi- 
tions held  when  leave  began,  or  to  equivalent  posi- 
tions with  equivalent  pay,  benefits,  working  conditions, 
and  other  terms  of  employment.  Returning  employees 
are  not  entitled  to  any  right,  benefit,  or  position  which 
they  would  not  have  been  entitled  had  they  not  taken 
the  leave,  or  to  intangible,  unmeasurable  aspects  of 
the  job  such  as  the  perceived  loss  of  potential  for

hired  for  a  specific  term  or  only  to  perform  work  on  a 
discrete  project,  then  there  is  no  further  reinstatement 
obligation  under  this  section  if  the  employment  term 
or  project  is  over  and  the  employment  would  not  have 
otherwise  continued. 

515.8  Benefits.  All  benefits  shall  accrue  to  employ- 
ees in  a  leave  status  under  this  section  pursuant  to 
the  applicable  provision  of  the  ELM. 


515.9  Family  Leave  Poster.  All  postal  facilities, 
including  stations  and  branches,  are  required  to  con- 
spicuously display  Poster  43,  Your  Rights  Under  the 
Family  and  Medical  Leave  Act  of  1993.  It  must  be 
posted,  and  remain  posted,  on  bulletin  boards  where  it 
can  be  seen  readily  by  employees  and  applicants  for 
employment.

519.7  Nonbargaining  Personal  Absence 

519.71  Policy.  Nonbargaining  exempt  employees  are

period. 

c.  Full-time  attendance  at  a  college 
or  university. 

d.  Personal  illness  or  injury  (also 
see  515). 


e.  Injury  in  line  of  duty. 


LWOP  may  be  granted  to  cover  the  absence. 
LWOP  may  be  granted  to  cover  the  absence. 

(1)  Restricted  to  full-time  employee. 

(2)  An  official  transcript  of  courses  taken  must  be  submitted  to  the  installation  head. 

(1)  LWOP  may  be  granted  after  accumulated  accrued  sick  and  annual  leave  have  been 
exhausted;  except  that  during  a  pay  period  in  which,  due  to  personal  injury  or  illness,  no  work 
is  performed,  an  employee  may  utilize  annual  and/or  sick  leave  in  conjunction  with  LWOP, 
subject  to  approval  of  the  leave  in  accordance  with  normal  leave  approval  procedures. 

(2)  A  medical  document  from  the  attending  physician  or  practitioner  must  be  obtained  before 
approval,  the  same  as  for  sick  leave. 

(3)  Applications  for  LWOP  to  cover  a  period  m  excess  of  30  days  in  any  1  year  in  cases  of 
illness  or  injury  are  reviewed  and  acted  upon  by  the  installation  head. 

(4)  An  employee  normally  will  not  be  separated  from  the  service  because  of  absence  due  to 
personal  illness  or  injury  for  a  period  of  less  than  1  year  (also  see  568).  An  employee  may  be 
separated  if  required  to  be  absent  for  more  than  1  year  unless  there  is  cause  to  expect 
recovery  and  return  within  a  reasonable  time  after  the  end  of  1  year  in  LWOP  status. 

(5)  The  separation  of  an  employee  after  1  year  of  continued  absence  with  or  without  pay 
does  not  prevent  an  eligible  employee  from  filinq  an  application  for  retirement  (also  see  568). 

(1)  Supervisors  must  advise  employees  of  their  right  to  file  an  application  for  FECA  benefits 
as  a  result  of  illness  or  injury  that  is  suffered  in  the  line  of  duty.  (See  instructions  on  CA-1  and 
CA-2a  for  traumatic  injuries  and  CA-2  for  occupational  illnesses  and  diseases.) 

(2)  In  traumatic  injury  cases,  an  employee  is  entitled  to  a  maximum  of  45  calendar  days  of 
continuation  of  pay  (COP)  without  charge  to  leave  if  written  notice  of  injury  is  filed  within  30 
days  of  injury.  The  period  of  COP  begins  at  the  start  of  the  employee's  first  full  tour  of  duty 
thereafter,  or  the  first  day  following  the  disability,  whichever  occurs  sooner.  The  period  during 
which  45  days  of  COP  may  be  claimed  must  begin  within  90  days  of  the  occurrence  of  the 
injury  but  may  end  after  90  days  from  the  occurrence.  If,  after  returning  to  work  subsequent  to 
an  apparent  recovery  from  a  traumatic  injury,  an  employee  is  again  absent  from  work  as  a 
result  of  the  original  traumatic  injury,  the  employee  may  use  any  remaining  COP  time  left  up 
to  the  45-day  limit.  However,  the  remaining  COP  time  must  be  used  within  90  days  of  the 
date  the  employee  first  returns  to  work  following  the  initial  traumatic  injury. 

(3)  An  employee  may  choose  sick  or  annual  leave  in  lieu  of  COP;  however,  this  leave  may 
not  be  retroactively  converted  to  COP  provided  a  request  is  made  within  1  year  of  the  date 
the  leave  was  used  or  the  date  of  the  claim  approval,  whichever  is  later. 

(4)  Before  being  placed  on  LWOP,  an  employee  may  choose  to  use  annual  or  sick  leave  until 
it  is  exhausted.  Leave  is  earned  during  that  part  of  a  pay  period  in  which  the  employee  is  in 
pay  status. 

(5)  On  favorable  adjudication  of  a  claim  by  the  Office  of  Workers'  Compensation  Programs 
(OWCP),  LWOP  may  be  substituted  for  a  period  of  sick  and/or  annual  leave  so  that  the 
employee  may  accept  disability  compensation  for  the  period  of  absence. 

(6)  On  favorable  adjudication  of  a  claim  by  OWCP,  current  employees  are  permitted  to  buy 
back  the  leave  that  they  used  while  awaiting  adjudication  (see  545.73b6).  If  the  injury  is  a 
traumatic  injury,  only  leave  used  after  the  end  of  the  45-day  COP  period  may  be  bought 
back.  OWCP  does  not  restrict  the  amount  of  leave  hours  an  employee  may  buy  back. 
However,  Postal  Service  regulations  do  not  permit  employees  to  carry-over  into  the  next 
leave  year  more  than  the  allowable  maximum  number  of  hours  of  annual  leave  (see  512.12). 
When  an  employee  buys  back  annual  leave  in  the  previous  year  in  an  amount  that  exceeds 
the  applicable  maximum  carry-over,  such  excess  will  be  automatically  forfeited.  For  every  80 
hours  of  leave  bought  back  and  changed  to  LWOP,  both  annual  and  sick  leave  must  be 
adjusted  by  the  amount  earned  in  a  pay  period.

YOUR  RIGHTS 

under  the 

FAMILY  AND  MEDICAL  LEAVE  ACT  OF  1993 

FMLA  requires  covered  employers  to  provide  up  to  12  weeks  of  job-protected  leave  to  "eligible"  employees  for  certain 
family  and  medical  reasons.  Employees  are  eligible  if  they  have  worked  for  a  covered  employer  for  at  least  1  year,  and  for 
1,250  hours  over  the  previous  12  months. 

REASONS  FOR  TAKING  LEAVE:  Leave  must  be  granted  for  one  or  more  of  the  following  reasons: 

^      Because  of  the  birth  of  a  son  or  daughter  of  the  employee  and  to  care  for  the  son  or  daughter  during  the  first  year  after 
birth; 

►  because  of  the  placement  of  a  son  or  daughter  with  the  employee  for  adoption  or  foster  care; 

^      to  care  for  the  employee's  spouse,  son,  daughter,  or  parent,  who  has  a  serious  health  condition;  or 

►  for  a  serious  health  condition  that  makes  the  employee  unable  to  perform  the  employee's  job. 

At  the  employee's  option,  annual  leave,  sick  leave,  or  leave  without  pay  may  be  taken  consistent  with  postal  leave  policies, 
and  applicable  labor  agreements. 

ADVANCE  NOTICE  AND  MEDICAL  CERTIFICATION:  The  employee  may  be  required  to  provide  advance  leave 
notice  and  medical  certification.  Taking  of  leave  may  be  denied  if  requirements  are  not  met. 

^>      The  employee  ordinarily  must  provide  30  days  advance  notice  when  the  leave  is  "foreseeable." 
^      An  employer  may  require  medical  certification  to  support  a  request  for  leave  because  of  a  serious  health  condition,  and 
may  require  second  or  third  opinions  (at  the  employer's  expense)  and  a  fitness  for  duty  report  to  return  to  work. 

JOB  BENEFITS  AND  PROTECTION: 

^      For  the  duration  of  FMLA  leave,  the  employer  must  maintain  the  employee's  health  coverage  under  any  "group 
health  plan"  provided  the  employee  continues  to  pay  the  cost  he  or  she  paid  prior  to  the  leave. 

^      Upon  return  from  FMLA  leave,  most  employees  must  be  restored  to  their  original  or  equivalent  positions  with 
equivalent  pay,  benefits,  and  other  employment  terms. 

►  The  use  of  FMLA  leave  cannot  result  in  the  loss  of  any  employment  benefit  that  accrued  prior  to  the  start  of 
an  employee's  leave. 

UNLAWFUL  ACTS  BY  EMPLOYERS:  FMLA  makes  it  unlawful  for  any  employer  to: 

►  interfere  with,  restrain,  or  deny  the  exercise  of  any  right  provided  under  FMLA; 

►  discharge  or  discriminate  against  any  person  for  opposing  any  practice  made  unlawful  by  FMLA  or  for 
involvement  in  any  proceeding  under  or  relating  to  FMLA. 

ENFORCEMENT:

Pictorial  Cancellations 

As  a  community  service,  the  Postal  Service  offers  picto- 
rial cancellations  to  commemorate  local  events  celebrat- 
ed in  communities  throughout  the  nation.  A  list  of  upcom- 
ing events  for  which  pictorial  cancellations  are  authorized 
appears  below.  If  available,  the  sponsor  of  the  pictorial 
cancellation  appears  in  italics  under  the  date.  Also  provid- 
ed, as  space  permits,  are  illustrations  of  those  cancella- 
tions that  were  reproducible  and  available  at  press  time. 

People  attending  these  local  events  may  obtain  the 
cancellation  in  person  at  the  temporary  post  office  station 
established  there.  Those  who  cannot  attend  the  event, 
but  who  wish  to  obtain  the  cancellation,  may  submit  a  mail 
order  request.  Pictorial  cancellations  are  available  only  for 
the  dates  indicated  and  requests  must  be  postmarked  no 
later  than  30  days  following  the  requested  pictorial  can- 
cellation date. 

All  requests  must  include  a  stamped  envelope  or  post- 
card bearing  at  least  the  minimum  First-Class  postage  (29 


cents  per  envelope  or  1 9  cents  per  postcard).  Items  sub- 
mitted for  cancellation  may  not  include  postage  issued 
after  the  date  of  the  requested  cancellation.  Such  items 
will  be  returned  unserviced. 

Customers  wishing  to  obtain  a  cancellation  should  affix 
stamps  to  any  envelope  or  postcard  of  choice,  address 
the  envelope  or  postcard  to  one's  self  or  others,  insert  a 
card  of  postcard  thickness  in  envelopes  for  sturdiness 
and  tuck  in  the  flap.  Place  the  envelope  or  postcard  in  a 
larger  envelope,  and  address  it  to:  PICTORIAL  CANCEL- 
LATIONS, followed  by  the  NAME  OF  THE  STATION,  AD- 
DRESS, CITY,  STATE,  ZIP  +  4  CODE,  exactly  as  listed 
below  (using  all  capitals  and  no  punctuation,  except  the 
hyphen  in  the  ZIP  +  4  code). 

After  applying  the  pictorial  cancellation,  the  Postal 
Service  returns  the  envelope  or  postcard  through  the 
mail.  Customers  who  want  their  serviced  item  returned 
under  protected  cover  should  include  a  larger,  stamped, 
self-addressed  envelope.

•Through  1990  the  F  Fund  was  invested  in  the  Wells  Fargo  Bond  Index  Fund. 


The  C  Fund  is  invested  in  the  Wells  Fargo  Equity  Index  Fund, 
which  tracks  the  S&P  500  stock  index.  The  F  Fund  is  invested 
in  the  Wells  Fargo  U.S.  Debt  Index  Fund,  which  tracks  the 
Shearson  Lehman  Brothers  Aggregate  Bond  index.  The  G 
Fund  is  invested  in  special  issues  of  U.S.  Treasury  securities. 

The  monthly  C,  F,  and  G  Fund  returns  represent  net  earnings 
for  the  month,  after  deduction  of  accrued  administrative  ex- 
penses. The  C  and  F  Fund  returns  also  reflect  the  deduction  of 
trading  costs  and  accrued  investment  management  fees. 

The  C,  F,  and  G  Fund  monthly  returns  are  dollar-weighted:  they 
reflect  net  earnings  on  the  changing  balances  invested  during 
the  month.  The  C,  F,  and  G  Fund  returns  for  the  last  1 2  months 
assume,  except  for  the  crediting  of  earnings,  unchanging 
balances  (time-weighting)  from  month  to  month  and  assume 
earnings  are  compounded  on  a  monthly  basis. 


The  C  and  F  Fund  returns  vary  from  the  Wells  Fargo  returns 
because  of  C  and  F  Fund  expenses  and  changing  balances  in 
the  C  and  F  Funds.  The  Wells  Fargo  returns  are  time-weighted: 
they  assume  constant  dollar  balances  invested  during  each 
month  and  throughout  the  period. 

Future  performance  of  the  three  funds  will  vary  and  may  be 
significantly  different  from  the  returns  shown  above.  See  the 
"Summary  of  the  Thrift  Plan"  for  detailed  information  about  the 
funds  and  their  investment  risks.

ADMINISTRATIVE  SERVICES  E 

ASM  Revision 

Purchases  of  Nonmetered  Heating  Fuel 

Effective  immediately,  purchasing  procedures  for  re- 
quirements of  nonmetered  heating  fuel  estimated  below 
20,000  gallons  per  year  are  revised  to  state  that  these 
purchases  should  be  met  through  local  buying  proce- 
dures. The  following  new  text  to  Administrative  Support 
Manual  (ASM)  543,  Purchasing  Nonmetered  Fuel,  re- 
places the  current  ASM  542.3.  The  next  issue  of  the  ASM 
will  include  this  revision. 

543    Purchasing  Nonmetered  Heating  Fuel 

543.1  Definition.  Nonmetered  heating  fuel  is  fuel  ob- 
tained by  bulk  delivery  for  storage  at  the  installation,  such 
as  fuel  oil,  butane,  propane,  coal,  and  wood.  For  informa- 
tion about  the  purchase  of  metered  heating  fuel,  see  542. 

543.2    Purchasing  Methods 

543.21  Oil  and  Gas.  The  purchasing  method  used  to 
obtain  heating  oil  or  gas  (including  butane  and  propane) 
depends  on  annual  requirements.  Generally,  require- 
ments are  categorized  into  two  distinct  limitations,  each  of 
which  calls  for  a  distinct  purchasing  method.  The  catego- 
ries are: 

a.  Requirements  over  20,000  gallons  a  year; 

b.  Requirements  under  20,000  gallons  a  year. 

543.22  Requirements  Over  20,000  Gallons  a  Year. 

Under  an  interagency  agreement  between  the  Postal 
Service  and  the  Defense  Fuel  Supply  Center  (DFSC), 
postal  installations  must  purchase  nonmetered  heating  oil 
and  gas  from  Defense  Fuel  Supply  Center  contractors  if 
the  annual  requirement  is  over  20,000  gallons  per  product 
at  any  given  location.  Delivery  agreements  are  used  to 
order  this  amount  of  heating  fuel  against  a  Defense  Fuel 
Supply  Center  contract.  Delivery  agreements  are  issued 
by  the  servicing  purchasing  service  center,  and  individ- 
uals so  designated  may  place  orders  for  the  heating  fuel 
they  require.  Orders  are  made  in  terms  of  tank  capacity. 

543.23  Requirements  Under  20,000  Gallons  a 
Year.  Nonmetered  fuel  requirements  estimated  to  be 
under  20,000  gallons  a  year  should  be  purchased  using 
local  buying  procedures. 

Note:  Postal  Service  or  General  Services  Administra- 
tion credit  cards  may  not  be  used  to  make  these  pur- 
chases (see  Chapter  7). 

543.24  Nonpetroleum  Fuels.  All  requirements  for 
nonpetroleum  fuels  like  coal,  wood,  etc.,  should  be  met 
through  local  buying  procedures. 

543.3  Changes  in  Types  of  Fuel.  Changes  in  the  fuel 
used  must  have  prior  approval.  For  Postal  Service-owned 
or  -leased  buildings,  submit  a  request  to  the  manager  of 
Operations  Program  Support  at  the  district  office,  giving 
estimated  costs  of  the  present  and  proposed  fuels  and 
the  reasons  for  making  the  change.  Include  comments  on 


the  kind  and  amount  of  fuel  currently  provided  and  any 
complaints  of  objectionable  smoke  conditions. 

543.4    Procedures 

543.41     Requirements  Over  20,000  Gallons  a  Year 

543.411  Submitting  Requirements.  Annual  re- 
quests for  requirements  exceeding  20,000  gallons  a  year 
must  be  submitted  through  the  servicing  purchasing  serv- 
ice center  to  the  Defense  Fuel  Supply  Center  (DFSC).  A 
Defense  Fuel  Supply  Center  requirements  work  sheet, 
provided  by  the  purchasing  service  center  to  the  require- 
ments organization,  is  used  to  establish  annual  require- 
ments by  line  item.  A  delivery  agreement  with  the  De- 
fense Fuel  Supply  Center  is  established  by  the  purchas- 
ing service  center  for  each  line  item  requested.  If  a  deliv- 
ery agreement  cannot  be  established,  the  purchasing 
service  center  provides  some  other  contractual  vehicle. 

543.412  Order  Limitations.  Orders  from  Defense 
Fuel  Supply  Center  contracts  are  authorized  to  the  maxi- 
mum tank  capacity  as  listed  in  the  applicable  Defense 
Fuel  Supply  Center  contract  Bulletin  for  the  installation. 

543.413  Authorized  Orderers.  Individuals  designat- 
ed to  place  orders  against  the  delivery  agreement  must 
be  identified  by  name  or  position  title. 

543.414  Ordering.  Authorized  orderers  may  place 
orders  from  the  delivery  agreement  in  writing  orally.  Each 
order  accepted  by  the  Defense  Fuel  Supply  Center  con- 
tractor becomes  an  individual  contract.  Orders  are  as- 
signed a  sequential  number  that  must  be  provided  to  the 
contractor  when  the  order  is  placed. 

543.415  Billing  and  Payment.  Invoices  are  sent  to 
the  ordering  installation,  which  verifies  accuracy,  certifies 
the  invoice,  and  forwards  it  to  the  Information  Systems 
field  center  for  payment. 

543.42  Requirements  Under  20,000  Gallons  a 
Year.  For  all  installations  other  than  leased  facilities  for 
which  the  Postal  Service  pays  for  fuel,  these  require- 
ments are  met  through  local  buying  procedures.  The 
Postal  Service  or  General  Services  Administration  credit 
card  may  not  be  used  to  purchase  any  of  the  fuels  dis-
