During CASS™ Cycle O certification, if a ‘Y’ is received on the DPV®

No-Stat table, the N-Stat Reason code must be correctly returned.

CASS™/ MASS™ Cycle O

Code Reason Description

01 IDA Internal Drop Address. Addresses that do not receive mail delivery directly from the USPS®, but are delivered to a “drop” address that services them.

02 CDS New construction addresses where delivery has not been established or is

on a Rural/CDS/HCR where the delivery point is unoccupied for more than 90 days.

03 Collision Addresses that do not DPV confirm. In this case, the ‘Y’ should be set to an ‘N’ on the DPV ‘A’ table and all other table values should be blank.

04 CMZ College/Military Zone, & Other types. These are ZIP + 4® records USPS® has incorporated into the data.

05 Regular

No-Stat

The address is no longer a possible delivery, the address is on an R777 route, or the PO Box has never been rented or has been declared un-rentable.

No-Stat Reason Codes

Question: Will the Postal Service™ maintain NAID certification?

NAID Certification developed for third-party information/data destruction

service providers.

USPS® reviewed NAID certification process and determined it is in conflict

with USPS regulations to protect the sanctity of the mail as per 18 USC

1708. Participation would not meet USPS security standard and penalties

under 18 USC.

All USPS Secure Destruction processing is performed at a single PARS site:

1. PARS SD Mail UAA process generates ACS™ notice. (ACS transmitted to NCSC in ACS feed).

2. Label applied sorts to Secure Destruction bin. (IMVIS mailpiece data generated &

transmitted to NCSC via IMVIS feed)

3. Mail transported to Mail Review for individual mailpiece verification

4. Verified mail fed into SD Mail Industrial cross-cut shredder; shredded size smaller than NAID & DIN Level 4 standards for Particularly Sensitive & Confidential Data

5. ACS & SD eNotification data provided for each mailpiece.

Update Shipment Acceptance (TM) scan event language to enhance the

tracking experience and provide more informative responses to

commercial customers

“Package Acceptance Pending”

Introduce new logic to add an attribute to the TM scan event to

designate trusted mailer MIDs

o Acceptance events on SCAN Form from a trusted mailer will display

alternate designated language; for example “Shipment Accepted”

Consider suppressing TM events after any USPS possession event or

higher precedent acceptance event

Update the rules to generate SF event from a Trusted TM event

reveal Expected Delivery Date (EDD) for packages that move in containers without mail

piece level scans.

o EDD will be displayed on the Internet and extracted in the Scan Event Extract files – CDE and
