2002 Minnesota Statutes

     16B.49 Central mailing system. 

    The commissioner shall maintain and operate for state 
 agencies, departments, institutions, and offices a central mail 
 handling unit.  Official, outgoing mail for units in St. Paul 
 must be delivered unstamped to the unit.  The unit shall also 
 operate an interoffice mail distribution system.  The department 
 may add personnel and acquire equipment that may be necessary to 
 operate the unit efficiently and cost-effectively.  Account must 
 be kept of the postage required on that mail, which is then a 
 proper charge against the agency delivering the mail.  To 
 provide funds for the payment of postage, each agency shall make 
 advance payments to the commissioner sufficient to cover its 
 postage obligations for at least 60 days.  For purposes of this 
 section, the Minnesota state colleges and universities is a 
 state agency.
