April 24, 2015 – USPS has posted its latest last minute list of “public” changes to the Phase II-2015 USPS Network Rationalization Consolidation Schedule. This is the fourth (4th) consecutive week that the Postal Service has made modifications to the Network Rationalization Consolidation list which affects a large group of postal facilities. Approximately 8 facilities scheduled for consolidation or closure in April, July & September 2015 have had their move dates changed to “To Be Determined” (TBD) or issued a “new” move date. Two (2) facilities move dates (Kalamazoo P&DC to Grand Rapids P&DC and Wausau P&DF to Green Bay P&DC) were suddenly changed from TBD to April 25, 2015. Two more facilities (Akron PDC and Central Mass) were take off the schedule (for now).
Akron PDC to Cleveland P & DC, Asheville P&DF to Greenville P&DC, Lancaster P&DF to Harrisburg P&DC, Queens P&DC to Brooklyn P&DC, South Bend P&DC to Fort Wayne P&DC mail moves initially scheduled for April 1, 2015 and April 18, 2015 were changed.
USPS completed over 90 mail moves and 9 consolidations during the month of April (see graphics below)

USPS plant consolidation schedule
I’m interested in transferring to the Harrisburg Pd&C center does anyone know if there are any openings and if transfers are being accepted. I’m a mailhandlers
And just because facilities are getting certain functions within a plant saved to prevent total closure doesn’t mean that there haven’t been layoffs still. Many people seem to think all jobs were saved, at our plant 1/3 were still laid off and we only lost APBS processing, which is the smallest crew in the plant consisting of about 15-20 jobs, yet there were 68 layoffs.
It started when wig pushed weber over a kit kat and loaf had to break it up
Maybe if ma and pa worked a full 8 and rex could reach the racks we could have been more productive
Connie white and duddy had this planed all along. It all started with the fritz hernia
USPS is not keeping the public updated on actual dates of plant closures.
For example take a look at Akron, Lancaster, Queens and Ashville. These plants were scheduled to close on 4/18. But USPS posted 4/24–6 days after the fact that their closure were changed. The same with Kalamazoo and Wausau in changing the closure dates from TBD to today.
BTW, I got an email from another union steward that pointed out mail handlers copy and paste job. I guess the new leadership does not care about integrity and/or creditability.
And this surprises you how?
By the way this reads it sounds like you just started working at the USPS.
