New Management Instruction EL-890-2009-9, Recycling Undeliverable Standard Mail, Discarded Lobby Mail, and Other Recyclable Materials

Management Instruction (MI) EL-890-2009-9, Recycling Undeliverable Standard Mail, Discarded Lobby Mail, and Other Recyclable Materials, now available on PolicyNet, is effective immediately.

This MI describes the recycling implementation steps designed to support Postal Service™ recycling initiatives. By focusing recycling efforts on undeliverable standard mail (USM) and discarded lobby mail (DLM), the Postal Ser­vice can effectively reduce waste disposal costs while implementing efficient and environmentally sound waste disposal practices.

The MI applies to all Postal Service facilities, offices, organizations, and locations that generate USM, DLM, and other recoverable materials such as cardboard, metals, and plastics. Every district is expected to assign a recycling coordinator to assist with the implementation and mainte­nance of recycling programs.

MI EL-890-2009-9 is available on the Postal Service™ PolicyNet website:
