TWIN FALLS, ID - The Postal Service has ended its Area Mail Processing (AMP) study of mail processing operations at the Twin Falls Post Office, located in Twin Falls, ID.

"This was a careful review," said Lloyd Wilkinson, Spokane District Manager, "and the conclusion is that there will be no significant changes made at this time."

"The business environment in which the Postal Service operates continues to change and we must constantly examine how we can improve our operations to meet our customers' needs," he said. "Studies such as the one conducted in Twin Falls allow us to determine where these improvements can best be made."
