SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 

404(d), on August 3, 2011, the 

Commission received a petition for 

review of the Postal Service’s 

determination to close the post office in 

Monroe, Arkansas. The petition was 

filed by Martha Pineda (Petitioner) and 

is postmarked July 26, 2011. The 

Commission hereby institutes a 

proceeding under 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(5) 

and establishes Docket No. A2011–40 to 

consider Petitioner’s appeal. If 

Petitioner would like to further explain 

her position with supplemental 

information or facts, Petitioner may 

either file a Participant Statement on 

PRC Form 61 or file a brief with the 

Commission no later than September 7, 

2011. 

Categories of issues apparently raised. 

Petitioner contends that the Postal 

Service failed to follow the post office 

closure requirements. See 39 U.S.C. 

404(d)(1). 

After the Postal Service files the 

administrative record and the 

Commission reviews it, the Commission 

may find that there are more legal issues 

than the one set forth above, or that the 

Postal Service’s determination disposes 

of one or more of those issues. The 

deadline for the Postal Service to file the 

applicable administrative record with 

the Commission is August 18, 2011. See 

39 CFR 3001.113. In addition, the due

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 350l et seq.), the Securities

requires that shareholders of a registered 

investment management or face-amount 

certificate company (collectively, 

‘‘funds’’) ratify or reject the selection of 

the fund’s independent public 

accountant. Rule 32a–4 (17 CFR

requirement if (i) The fund’s board of 

directors establishes an audit committee 

composed solely of independent 

directors with responsibility for 

overseeing the fund’s accounting and 

auditing processes,1 (ii) the fund’s board 

of directors adopts an audit committee 

charter setting forth the committee’s 

structure, duties, powers and methods 

of operation, or sets forth such 

provisions in the fund’s charter or 

bylaws,2 and (iii) the fund maintains a 

copy of such an audit committee 

charter, and any modifications to the 

charter, permanently in an easily 

accessible place.3
