| 1 Prior to 2007 Standard mail volumes were inflated by about 3 billion pieces due to a double count of Detached Address Labels in the Carrier Cost System (CCS). Also, volumes through 2007 were understated by about 2 to 3 billion pieces in the CCS. These CCS volumes are used as a control for survey results. | DK/RF | Larger Envelope | PCT_ROW | Percent of Row Frequency | 2.161816 | 0.795213 | ||||||||||||||
