LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - As a result of a study begun on December 3, 2010, the Postal Service has made the decision to consolidate mail processing operations from the Russellville Customer Service Mail Processing Center to the Little Rock Processing & Distribution Center.

Arkansas District Manager David Camp said there has been a drastic 20 percent decline in mail volume since 2007.

"I understand our employees' concern over this move," Camp added, "but the consolidation makes sense given the fiscal realities. The Little Rock center has the capacity to handle the additional workload and we can realize significant savings by shifting operations there."

The transition is expected to be completed by October 2011. Some employees may be reassigned to other vacant positions as a result of the move.
