N. WISCONSIN / UP (AP) - The U.S. Postal Service is proposing a plan to make changes that could result in slower service to rural areas.  The proposal, announced Aug. 22, would adjust mail delivery times while maintaining a commitment to a maximum five-day delivery for the flagship Ground Advantage program nationwide and a maximum three-day delivery for local first-class mail.  USPS said the changes would save $3 billion annually.  This proposal aligns with the organization’s mandate to be financially self-sufficient while continuing to deliver to every address across the nation six days a week. If adopted, 75% of first-class mail will see no change from the current service standards, and around two-thirds of mail will be delivered in three or fewer days.  The changes still need to be approved by the Postal Regulatory Commission.
