D. Policy Statement

The Laboratory's mail system is intended to process only official mail, which is mail that results from the performance of duties directly related to official Laboratory business. The Laboratory uses government funds to provide postage on outgoing mail. Using Laboratory-furnished postage for other than official business mail is a violation of Laboratory policy and the Laboratory's contractual obligations to DOE. Examples of mail not considered official are gifts, calendars, Christmas cards, and resumes sent to other organizations. In addition, the Laboratory's mail system may not be used for stamped personal mail. Similarly, the mail system may not be used for incoming personal mail (e.g., personal correspondence, bank and credit statements, popular magazines, clothing catalogs, gift packages). Incoming mail of a personal nature may be refused or returned to sender at the discretion of the Mail Services Supervisor.

E. Roles and Responsibilities

Managers, supervisors, employees, and affiliates have the responsibility to adhere to the provisions of this policy.

F. Definitions/Acronyms
