Anthrax Detector Installed in Wyoming Mail Facility

Anthrax-detection equipment has been placed in the largest U.S. Postal Service mail distribution center in Wyoming, the Associated Press reported yesterday (see GSN, Oct. 18, 2004).

The Cheyenne Mail Processing and Distribution Center handles about 840,000 parcels each day. It is one of the first mail distribution sites in the Rocky Mountain region to receive the equipment, which eventually will be placed at 283 processing facilities around the nation (Associated Press/Casper Star-Tribune, March 28).
