SUBJECT: New Policy Flash Distribution Process

SUMMARY: This office is automating the policy flash (PF) distribution process by using a listserv. As of February 18, 2016, the listserv will send PF notifications without attachments. PFs will no longer be sent via the email distribution list. PFs will continue to reside at the PF website identified below.

As new PFs are issued, subscribers will be notified via the listserv. The notification (attached) will be general in nature and will not reference the specific PF. Subscribers will be provided a link to our PF webpage to review the PF.

If you previously received PF notifications directly from this office you have already been subscribed to the listserv. Others who would like to subscribe/ unsubscribe may click on the links below; contained in notification emails; or posted on the PF website. The process for each action is described below.
