Independence Day is being observed by federal, state, and county office on Friday, July 3 since the fourth day of the month, the actual day of the holiday, falls on a Saturday.
It isn’t being treated as a normal federal holiday, however, at the United States Postal Service.
USPS spokesman Duke Gonzales told Big Island Now that things will be “business as usual” on Friday. All post offices will be open and mail delivery will go on as usual. The only difference is that administrative personnel will have the day off.
All postal services will be closed on Saturday.
