Comment Policy

This site provides a forum to discuss on-going audits of the United States Postal Service performed by the Office of Inspector General. We encourage you to share your ideas, concerns, comments in the comments section associated with each audit project.  We have a contact form that you can send us questions and documents. You may also send  any documents you may have concerning each individual audit to auditprojects@uspsoig.gov.

This is a moderated discussion forum—we will review all comments before posting them. We expect that participants will treat each other with respect. We will not post comments that contain vulgar language, personal attacks of any kind, or offensive terms that target specific individuals or groups. We will not post comments that are clearly off-topic or that promote services or products. Comments that make unsupported accusations will also not be posted.

We ask that reporters send questions to the USPS OIG Media Office through their normal channels and refrain from submitting questions here as comments. We will not post questions from reporters.

This is not the place to report fraud, theft, or misconduct  by Postal Service employees or contractors. These concerns should be reported directly to our Hotline through our main website at http://www.uspsoig.gov/contact.htm or by calling 1-888-USPS-OIG.

We recognize that the Web is a 24/7 medium, and your comments are welcome at any time. Given the need to manage Federal resources effectively, however, we will review comments and post them from 9:00 a.m—5:00 p.m.  Eastern Time, Monday through Friday. We will read and post comments submitted after hours, on weekends, or on holidays as early as possible the next business day.

To protect your own privacy, and the privacy of others, please do not include personal information or personally identifiable information such as names, addresses, phone numbers or e-mail addresses in the body of your comment.

Except when specifically noted, any views or opinions expressed on this forum (or any other forums available via an RSS feed) are those of the individual. The views and posted comments do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General, or the Federal government.

Thank you for taking the time to read this comment policy and disclaimer. We encourage your participation in our forums and look forward to an active exchange of ideas.
