Purpose

To designate the United States Postal Service facility located at 220 Fremont Street, Kiel, Wisconsin, as the “Trooper Trevor J. Casper Post Office Building.”

Key provisions

The enacted text is a single substantive section carrying out the naming; there are no provisions altering operations, funding, staffing, or functions of the facility.

Who is affected

  • Primary: The specified USPS building in Kiel, Wisconsin — its official name for federal purposes will change.
  • Secondary: Federal agencies, mapmakers, publishers, and record-keepers who reference the facility in laws, regulations, maps, or other formal documents may update terminology to reflect the new name.
  • No impact on postal services, postal rates, or USPS administrative authorities.

Notes
