Background<\/h3>\n

The Inspection Service Manual (ISM) is official policy of the United States Postal Inspection Service. The ISM is maintained in an electronic format.<\/p>\n

The ISM is available to all Inspection Service personnel. The ISM is a restricted document and is not available for distribution outside of the Postal lnspection Service without the prior written approval of the Inspection Service Chief Counsel.<\/p>\n

In April of 2015, I requested under the FOIA the entire manual. \u00a0Sadly, it is quite lengthy, and required costs for review and reproduction, so I amended my request to include just the Table of Contents and References section (which turns out, there is no such section).<\/p>\n

Below is the released portion.<\/p>\n
