New Specifications for Automated Flats

This final rule sets forth the DMM standards adopted by the Postal Service to implement the discount rate for automation flat-size mailpieces processed on the Flat Sorting Machine (FSM) 1000. The FSM 1000 is capable of processing mailpieces that cannot be processed on the FSM 881. FSM 1000 machines are being retrofitted with barcode readers. Mailpieces that currently do not qualify for automation flat rates will be eligible if pieces meet the size and other criteria for processing on the FSM 1000, are prepared with correct ZIP+4 or delivery point barcodes, and meet other preparation requirements.
