 <title>Postal Service: Service and Cost Aspects of the Dakota Central Area Mail Processing Center</title>
</titleInfo>
<abstract>This report reviews mail service in the communities served by the Dakota
Central Area Mail Processing Center in Huron, South Dakota. GAO assesses
the validity of concerns of postal customers that the new center, which
opened in July 1993, would not be able to maintain overnight mail
service in the area. GAO compares mail service in Aberdeen, South
Dakota, which processes its own mail, with service in and between other
communities whose mail is processed at the center. GAO also compares (1)
the cost of the center with the projected costs and (2) the number of
personnel and workhours devoted to mail processing before and after the
consolidation.</abstract>
