Report Description
The objective of our audit was to assess the effectiveness of the Postal Service’s National Recycling Program (NRP). In fiscal year (FY) 2014, the Postal Service approved $33 million for the NRP as part of an overarching initiative to drive waste and cost out of operations, generate revenue, and provide better stewardship for the environment. The goal of the NRP is to reduce trash disposal costs; and increase recycling revenue from office mixed paper, undeliverable standard mail, and discarded lobby mail by maximizing the value of the existing network.
