Contracts Negotiated Service Agreements, 

December 19, 2008 (Order No. 153). 

3 Governors’ Decision No. 08–10, July 16, 2008, 

filed in Docket No. MC2008–7, establishes prices 

and classifications not of general applicability for 

Global Direct and Global Bulk Economy Contracts, 

as well as for Global Plus Contracts 2, which 

combines Global Direct and Global Bulk Economy 

services. As part of Governors’ Decision No. 08–10, 

the Postal Service submitted a description of Global 

Direct Contracts which it describes as ‘‘contracts 

giving a rate for mail acceptance within the United 

States and transportation to a receiving country 

with the addition by the customer of appropriate 

foreign postage charged by the receiving country.’’

cargoes regulated by 46 CFR 

subchapters D or O, or Certain 

Dangerous Cargoes as defined in 33 CFR 

160.204. 

(3) For all other vessels, the draw 

shall open on signal at any time, except 

from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through 

Friday, except Federal holidays. During 

these times, the draw shall: 

(i) Open for commercial vessels with 

a draft of 18 feet or more, provided at 

least 6 hours notice was given to the 

Berkley Bridge Traffic Control room at 

(757) 494–2490. 

(ii) Open on signal at 9 a.m., 11 a.m., 

1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. 

(4) If the bridge is not opened during 

a particular scheduled opening per 

subparagraph (b)(3)(ii) and a vessel has 

made prior arrangements for a delayed 

opening, the draw tender may provide 

a single opening up to 30 minutes past 

that scheduled opening time for that 

signaling vessel, except at 2:30 p.m. The 

draw tender may provide a single 

opening up to 20 minutes past the 2:30 

p.m. scheduled opening time for a 

signaling vessel that made prior 

arrangements for a delayed opening. A 

vessel may make prior arrangements for 

a delayed opening by contacting the 

Berkley Bridge Traffic Control room at 

(757) 494–2490. 

During this test deviation, VDOT will 

continue to gather data from the 

scheduled openings, along with vessel 

counts, to compare, evaluate, and 

monitor both old and new traffic 

patterns in hope of reducing roadway 

congestion on the bridge and local 

commuting area by adjusting bridge 

openings to ensure a future regulation 

will not have a significant impact on 

navigation. 

Additional Information 

This deviation has been coordinated 

with the main commercial waterway 

user group that has vessels transiting in 

this area and there is no expectation of 

any significant impacts on navigation. 

Vessels with mast heights of less than 

48 feet, above mean high water, can pass 

underneath the bridge in the closed 

position. There are no alternate 

waterway routes. 

This deviation from the operating 

regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 

117.35.

V. Ordering Paragraphs 

I. Introduction 

The Postal Service seeks to add a new 

product identified as Global Direct 

Contracts 1 to the Competitive Product 

List. For the reasons discussed below, 

the Commission approves the Request. 

II. Background 

On December 23, 2009, the Postal 

Service filed a request seeking to add a 

new product, Global Direct Contracts 1, 

to the Global Direct Contracts product.1

The Global Direct product provides a 

rate for mail acceptance within the 

United States, transportation to a 

receiving country of mail that bears the 

destination country’s indicia, and 

payment by the Postal Service of the 

appropriate settlement charges to the 

receiving country. In support of its 

Request, the Postal Service incorporates 

by reference the Statement of 

Supporting Justification of Frank 

Cebello, Executive Director, Global 

Business Management, initially filed 

with its request in Docket Nos. 

MC2009–9, CP2009–10 and CP2009– 

11.2 The Request has been assigned 

Docket No. MC2010–17. 

The Postal Service 

contemporaneously filed a contract 

related to the proposed new product 

pursuant to 39 CFR 3015.5. The contract 

has been assigned Docket No. CP2010– 

18 and is the successor to the contract 

approved in Docket No. CP2009–11. See 

Order No. 153. The Postal Service states 

that the instant contract is functionally 

equivalent to previously submitted 

Global Direct Contracts and is supported 

by Governors’ Decision No. 08–10, 

which establishes prices and 

classifications not of general 

applicability for Global Direct 

Contracts.3 In addition, the Postal 

Service contends that the contract is in 

accordance with Order No. 153. 

The contract term is 1 year from the 

effective date and may be automatically 

renewed unless the parties agree 

otherwise. Id. at 3–4. 

In support of its Request, the Postal 

Service filed the following five 

attachments: 

1. Attachment 1–a redacted copy of 

the contract; 

2. Attachment 2–a certified statement 

required by 39 CFR 3015.5(c)(2); 

3. Attachment 3–an application for 

non-public treatment of materials to 

maintain the contract and supporting 

documents under seal; 

4. Attachment 4–a redacted copy of 

Governors’ Decision No. 08–10, which 

establishes prices and classifications for 

Global Direct, Global Bulk Economy, 

and Global Plus Contracts; and 

5. Attachment 5–a statement of 

supporting justification from Docket No. 

CP2009–11, which is included by 

reference for the instant contract to 

satisfy 39 CFR 3020.32. 

The Postal Service will notify the 

customer of the effective date of the 

contract within 30 days after receiving 

all regulatory approvals. Id. at 3–4. The 

related contract at issue under Docket 

No. CP2009–11 expires on January 11,

4The Postal Service states that Incentive 

Lettermail is the same as Canada Post’s Lettermail 

in terms of size, shape, and content. A mailer 

performs certain preparation tasks dictated by 

Canada Post to qualify for Incentive Lettermail 

pricing, just as a Canadian domestic mailer might. 

5See Order No. 153 at 9 in which the Commission 

reviewed the language of the actual agreements 

compared to the language proposed by the Postal 

Service to modify the MCS and determined the 

language proposed for inclusion in the MCS should 

reflect the actual payment practice under these 

agreements. 

6Notice and Order Concerning Filing of 

Functionally Equivalent Global Direct Contracts 

Negotiated Service Agreement, December 30, 2009 

(Order No. 373). 

7Public Representative Comments in Response to 

Order No. 373, January 6, 2010 (Public 

Representative Comments). 

2010. Id. at 2. The Postal Service also 

explains that a redacted version of the 

supporting financial documentation is 

included with this filing as a separate 

Excel file. Id. at 3. 

The Postal Service asserts that the 

instant Global Direct contract is 

functionally equivalent with the 

previous Global Direct Contracts 

because it shares ‘‘similar, if not the 

same...’’ cost and market characteristics 

and therefore the contracts should be 

classified as a single product. Id. at 5. 

Further, it contends that the contract fits 

within the Mail Classification Schedule 

(MCS) language for Global Direct 

Contracts included with Governors’ 

Decision No. 08–10, since ‘‘these 

agreements are ‘functionally equivalent 

in all pertinent respects.’’’ Id. at 5, citing 

Order No. 85 at 8. 

The Postal Service asserts that the 

instant Global Direct Contract is 

fundamentally similar’’ to that in Docket 

No. CP2009–11, but notes that many of 

the terms and conditions have changed, 

including the following: (a) Allowing 

mailers to use Canada Post’s domestic 

Incentive Lettermail Service;4 (b) notice 

of confidentiality rules; (c) modifying 

the term to a full year; (d) clarifying 

locations for tendering qualifying items; 

explaining the availability of pickup 

service; and (e) reflecting the price 

changes of Canada Post. Id. at 5. The 

Postal Service maintains that the 

differences do not affect the 

fundamental service being offered or the 

essential structure of the contracts. Id. It 

also states that the proposed MCS 

language included with the Request 

presents a modification proposed by the 

Commission to reflect the actual 

payment practice.5

The Postal Service requests that the 

instant contract be considered the 

baseline contract for functional 

equivalency comparisons of future 

Global Direct contracts, indicating that 

future Global Direct Contracts will be 

based upon the instant contract’s 

provisions rather than those in Docket 

No. CP2009–10 and CP2009–11. Request 

at 2. It further requests that Global 

Direct Contracts 1 be added to the 

Competitive Product List, particularly as 

future Global Direct contracts are more 

likely to resemble this contract. Id. 

In Order No. 373, the Commission 

gave notice of the two dockets, 

appointed a public representative, and 

provided the public with an opportunity 

to comment.6

III. Comments 

Comments were filed by the Public 

Representative.7 No other interested 

person submitted comments. The Public 

Representative states that it appears that 

the contract complies with 39 U.S.C. 

3633(a) and 39 CFR 3015.5. Id. He 

observes that the pricing structure and 

certification indicate that this contract 

meets its attributable costs and there is 

no cross-subsidization of this 

competitive product by market 

dominant products. Id. at 2–3. He notes 

that while some of the terms of the 

instant contract are different than 

previous Global Direct contracts this 

does not alter its functional 

equivalency. Id. at 3. He affirms that his 

review of the contract and supporting 

materials filed under seal indicates that 

the instant contract complies with the 

pricing formula established in 

Governors’ Decision No. 08–10, is 

functionally equivalent to the other 

contracts within the Global Directs 

Contracts classification, and is 

appropriately established as a 

competitive product. Id. at 2–3. 

The Public Representative concludes 

that the instant contract’s terms are in 

compliance with statutory requirements 

for a competitive product and are 

beneficial to the general public. Id. at 4. 

IV. Commission Analysis 

The Postal Service’s filing presents 

several issues for the Commission to 

consider: (1) The addition of a new 

product to the MCS in accordance with 

39 U.S.C. 3642; (2) whether the 

agreement satisfies 39 U.S.C. 3633; and 

(3) the treatment of Global Contracts 1 

as the baseline agreement as requested 

by the Postal Service. In reaching its 

conclusions, the Commission has 

reviewed the Request, the agreement 

and the financial analyses provided 

under seal, and the Public 

Representative’s comments. 

Product classification. The Postal 

Service notes that the Commission has 

had the opportunity to review the 

Global Directs Contracts product in 

Order No. 153 and found that those 

contracts were properly classified as 

competitive. In lieu of a separate 

statement relative to the instant 

contract, it incorporates by reference its 

supporting justification for the contracts 

in Dockets Nos. CP2009–9, CP2009–6 

and CP2009–11 as Attachment 5 to the 

Request. The Commission finds this an 

acceptable method for the Postal Service 

to support its Request. 

Cost considerations. The Postal 

Service contends that the instant 

contract and supporting documents 

filed in this docket establish compliance 

with the statutory provisions applicable 

to rates for competitive products (39 

U.S.C. 3633). Request at 3. It asserts that 

the Governors’ Decision (No. 08–10) 

supporting this agreement establishes a 

pricing formula and classification that 

ensures each contract meets the criteria 

of 39 U.S.C. 3633 and the regulations 

promulgated thereunder. Request, 

Attachment 4, Attachment D. 

The Public Representative concurs 

that the agreement appears to satisfy 

section 3633 of title 39. Public 

Representative Comments at 1. 

Based on the data submitted and the 

Commission’s analysis, the Commission 

finds that the agreement should cover 

its attributable costs (39 U.S.C. 

3633(a)(2)), should not lead to the 

subsidization of competitive products 

by market dominant products (39 U.S.C. 

3633(a)(1)), and should have a positive 

effect on competitive products’ 

contribution to institutional costs (39 

U.S.C. 3633(a)(3)). Thus, an initial 

review of the proposed agreement 

indicates that it comports with the 

provisions applicable to rates for 

competitive products. 

Baseline agreement. The Postal 

Service seeks to add a new product, 

Global Direct Contracts 1, to the 

Competitive Product List. It contends 

that the instant contract is functionally 

equivalent to previously reviewed 

Global Direct Contracts. At the same 

time, it asks that the instant contract be 

considered a new baseline for future 

Global Direct Contracts. Request at 2. 

The Postal Service indicates that future 

Global Direct Contracts are likely to 

resemble this one. Because Global Direct 

Contracts 1 is being added as a new 

product, the Commission finds it 

unnecessary to address the issue of 

functional equivalency with previous 

contracts. 

The Postal Service notes that the 

Global Direct Contracts 1 contract 

differs from previously submitted 

Global Direct contracts, e.g., pertaining 

to the treatment of confidential 

information, the availability of domestic 

Incentive Lettermail Service, and more 

detail in descriptions for penalties and

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 41 / Wednesday, March 3, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 9525 

postage due assessed by Canada Post. It 

also cites new provisions that add 

clarity or update terms, but contends 

that they do not alter the essential 

service being offered. Id. at 5. Finally, it 

asserts that the cost and market 

characteristics of the instant contract are 

fundamentally similar to those of the 

prior Global Direct contracts. Id. 

Having evaluated the instant Global 

Direct contract along with the 

supporting financial analyses, the 

Commission finds that Global Direct 

Contracts 1 is properly included as a 

new product to the Competitive Product 

List. 

Following the current practice, the 

Postal Service shall identify all 

significant differences between any new 

Global Direct contract and the Global 

Direct Contracts 1 product. Such 

differences would include terms and 

conditions that impose new obligations 

or new requirements on any party to the 

contract. The docket referenced in the 

caption should be Docket No. MC2010– 

17. In conformity with the current 

practice, a redacted copy of Governors’ 

Decision 08–10 should be included in 

the new filing along with an electronic 

link to it. 

The Postal Service shall inform the 

Commission of the effective dates of the 

contract and promptly notify the 

Commission if the contract terminates 

earlier than scheduled. 

In conclusion, the Commission adds 

Global Direct Contracts 1 to the 

Competitive Product List and finds that 

the negotiated service agreement 

submitted in Docket No. CP2010–18 is 

appropriately included within the 

Global Direct Contracts 1 product. 

V. Ordering Paragraphs 

It is ordered: 

1. Global Direct Contracts 1 (MC2010– 

17 and CP2010–18) is added to the

2. The Postal Service shall inform the 

Commission of the effective dates of the 

contract and notify it if the contract 

terminates earlier than scheduled, as 

discussed in this order. 

3. The Secretary shall arrange for 

publication of this order in the Federal 

Register.
