Editorial and corrections policy

People plan days off, trips to the post office and trades on these dates. A date that is one day out costs a wasted drive or a missed deadline, so each one is computed from the rule that sets it and, wherever an official list exists, compared with that list by an automated test.

Who is responsible

Radif Partners, reachable at contact@usdatesnow.com.

What we read

• the United States Code on GovInfo: 5 U.S.C. 6103 (legal public holidays), 36 U.S.C. 109 and 117 (Father's Day, Mother's Day), 2 U.S.C. 7 (Election Day);
• the Office of Personnel Management holiday tables and its fact sheet on Saturday and Sunday holidays, and executive orders on GovInfo;
• the Federal Reserve Board schedule of holidays, the NYSE holiday calendar and the Nasdaq Trader calendar;
• the Postal Operations Manual and the Postal Service operations memos and news releases for each holiday;
• the National Weather Service for the seasons, and gazetted holiday lists abroad (Hong Kong) as a cross-check of lunar dates.

Sources we refuse

Other countdown sites, shipping blogs and retailer pages never supply a date or an opening rule here. When official sources are silent, the page says so; a date that depends on a sighting or an announcement is labeled as an estimate or as not yet announced.

Review cycle

The published lists are re-read whenever an organization publishes a new year, and every page is checked again each December and June. An announced change (an executive order closing federal offices, a new exchange holiday) is added on the day it is published.

Corrections

1. We open the official text again.
2. We correct the rule or the list and add an automated test for the case.
3. The site rebuilds and every page that uses the date follows.

Independence
