{Kentucky}...The Postal Service is considering closing more than 1 in 10 of its retail outlets, about 130 in Kentucky. Postal officials announced Tuesday that it will study 3,653 local offices, branches and stations for possible closing. But many of those may be replaced by Village Post Offices in which postal services are offered in local stores, libraries or government offices. Postal vice president Dean Granholm says most of the offices that face review are in rural areas and have low volumes of business. As many as 3,000 post offices have only two hours of business a day even though they are open longer.
