3-2.9 Authorized Representatives

An air carrier is responsible for authorizing personnel to whom the Postal Service directs and receives communication. The air carrier’s corporate office must designate an authorized representative(s) and notify the Postal Service of any personnel changes. The basis for this practice is an agreement with the Alaska aviation industry to ensure that the people making mail transportation decisions are authorized to do so by the air carrier’s corporate office (and are not unauthorized personnel such as station managers, field personnel, or outside consultants).
