Governors Approve Change to Periodicals and Extend NSA

On Monday, the Governors approved the Postal Rate Commission's recommended decision for a change in the eligibility rules for Periodicals subscription prices. The change will allow a reduction of up to 70 percent of the basic annual subscription rate for a copy to be counted as part of the publication’s paid circulation. This change takes effect today.

In a separate action, the Governors approved a one-year extension of the Capital One Negotiated Service Agreement (NSA), which is effective immediately.
