Friday, Sept. 17, 1999 | 11:40 a.m.

PSI Group, a national mail presort company, begins its Las Vegas operations on Monday.

The Omaha, Neb.-based company's operating center is expected to process more than 18 million letters per month by year's end. Chief Executive Robert Krohn said the center at 6283 S. Valley View Blvd. will have a maximum processing capacity of 30 million letter a month.

With a construction cost of approximately $3 million, the processing center will employ about 80 full and part-time workers, said Krohn.

The company already operates processing centers in Phoenix, San Francisco, and Seattle, serving several of the nation's largest banks and financial institutions. PSI Group works closely with the U.S. Postal Service, and with the opening of its Las Vegas operations estimates it will process about 3 percent of the total U.S. automated mail.

Neil Dean will serve as PSI's senior vice-president in Las Vegas, and San Francisco operations manager Mark Benter will serve in that capacity here.
