presiding officer finds, upon motion of 

a party accompanying its demand or 

petition, that the circumstances satisfy 

the standards in 10 CFR 2.310(d) for 

conducting the proceeding under 10 

CFR part 2, subpart G; or (3) all parties 

jointly agree and request that the 

proceeding be conducted under the 

procedures of another subpart of 10 CFR 

part 2. 

III. Electronic Submissions (E-Filling) 

All documents filed in NRC 

adjudicatory proceedings, including a 

demand for hearing, a petition for leave 

to intervene, any motion or other 

document filed in the proceeding prior 

to the submission of a demand for 

hearing or petition to intervene 

(hereinafter ‘‘petition’’), and documents 

filed by interested governmental entities 

participating under 10 CFR 2.315(c), 

must be filed in accordance with 10 CFR 

2.302. The E-Filing process requires 

participants to submit and serve all 

adjudicatory documents over the 

internet, or in some cases to mail copies 

on electronic storage media, unless an 

exemption permitting an alternative 

filing method, as discussed below, is 

granted. Participants may not submit 

paper copies of their filings unless they 

seek an exemption in accordance with 

the procedures described below. 

Detailed guidance on electronic 

submissions is located in the Guidance 

for Electronic Submissions to the NRC 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML13031A056) 

and on the NRC website at https://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. 

To comply with the procedural 

requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 

days prior to the filing deadline, the 

participant should contact the Office of 

the Secretary by email at 

Hearing.Docket@nrc.gov, or by 

telephone at 301–415–1677, to request 

(1) a digital identification (ID) 

certificate, which allows the participant 

(or its counsel or representative) to 

digitally sign documents and access the 

E-Submittal server for any proceeding in 

which it is participating; and (2) advise 

the Secretary that the participant will be 

submitting a petition or other 

adjudicatory document (even in 

instances in which the participant, or its 

counsel or representative, already holds 

an NRC-issued digital ID certificate). 

Based upon this information, the 

Secretary will establish an electronic 

docket for the proceeding if the 

Secretary has not already established an 

electronic docket. 

Information about applying for a 

digital ID certificate is available on the 

NRC’s public website at https://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/ 

getting-started.html. After a digital ID 

certificate is obtained and a docket 

created, the participant must submit 

adjudicatory documents in Portable 

Document Format. Guidance on 

submissions is available on the NRC’s 

public website at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A 

filing is considered complete at the time 

the document is submitted through the 

NRC’s E-Filing system. To be timely, an 

electronic filing must be submitted to 

the E-Filing system no later than 11:59 

p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. 

Upon receipt of a transmission, the EFiling system timestamps the document 

and sends the submitter an email 

confirming receipt of the document. The 

E-Filing system also distributes an email 

that provides access to the document to 

the NRC’s Office of the General Counsel 

and any others who have advised the 

Office of the Secretary that they wish to 

participate in the proceeding, so that the 

filer need not serve the document on 

those participants separately. Therefore, 

applicants and other participants (or 

their counsel or representative) must 

apply for and receive a digital ID 

certificate before adjudicatory 

documents are filed to obtain access to 

the documents via the E-Filing system. 

A person filing electronically using 

the NRC’s adjudicatory E-Filing system 

may seek assistance by contacting the 

NRC’s Electronic Filing Help Desk 

through the ‘‘Contact Us’’ link located 

on the NRC’s public website at http://

www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html, by email to 

MSHD.Resource@nrc.gov, or by a tollfree call at 1–866–672–7640. The NRC 

Electronic Filing Help Desk is available 

between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m., Eastern 

Time, Monday through Friday, 

excluding government holidays. 

Participants who believe that they 

have good cause for not submitting 

documents electronically must file an 

exemption request, in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper 

filing stating why there is good cause for 

not filing electronically and requesting 

authorization to continue to submit 

documents in paper format. Such filings 

must be submitted in accordance with 

10 CFR 2.302(b)-(d). Participants filing 

adjudicatory documents in this manner 

are responsible for serving their 

documents on all other participants. 

Participants granted an exemption 

under 10 CFR 2.302(g)(2) must still meet 

the electronic formatting requirement in 

10 CFR 2.302(g)(1), unless the 

participant also seeks and is granted an 

exemption from 10 CFR 2.302(g)(1). 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in the NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket, which is 

publicly available at https://

adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded 

pursuant to an order of the presiding 

officer. If you do not have an NRCissued digital ID certificate as described 

above, click ‘‘cancel’’ when the link 

requests certificates and you will be 

automatically directed to the NRC’s 

electronic hearing dockets where you 

will be able to access any publicly 

available documents in a particular 

hearing docket. Participants are 

requested not to include personal 

privacy information such as social 

security numbers, home addresses, or 

personal phone numbers in their filings 

unless an NRC regulation or other law 

requires submission of such 

information. With respect to 

copyrighted works, except for limited 

excerpts that serve the purpose of the 

adjudicatory filings and would 

constitute a Fair Use application, 

participants should not include 

copyrighted materials in their 

submission. 

For further details with respect to this 

action, see the letter from the NRC to 

Oklo denying the custom combined 

license application, dated January 6, 

2022 (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML21357A034).

I. Introduction 

II. Request for Comments 

III. Ordering Paragraphs 

I. Introduction 

Each year the Postal Service must 

submit to the Commission its most 

recent annual performance plan and 

annual performance report. 39 U.S.C. 

3652(g). On December 29, 2021, the 

Postal Service filed its FY 2021 Annual 

Report to Congress in Docket No. 

ACR2021.1 The FY 2021 Annual Report 

includes the Postal Service’s FY 2021 

annual performance report (FY 2021 

Report) and FY 2022 annual 

performance plan (FY 2022 Plan). FY 

2021 Annual Report at 32–53. 

The FY 2022 Plan reviews the Postal 

Service’s plans for FY 2022. The FY 

2021 Report discusses the Postal 

Service’s progress during FY 2021 

toward its four performance goals: 

• High-Quality Service 

• Excellent Customer Experiences 

• Safe Workplace and Engaged 

Workforce 

• Financial Health 

Each year, the Commission must 

evaluate whether the Postal Service met 

the performance goals established in the 

annual performance plan and annual 

performance report. 39 U.S.C. 3653(d). 

The Commission may also ‘‘provide 

recommendations to the Postal Service 

related to the protection or promotion of 

public policy objectives set out in’’ title 

39. Id. 

Since Docket No. ACR2013, the 

Commission has evaluated whether the 

Postal Service met its performance goals 

in reports separate from the Annual 

Compliance Determination.2 The 

Commission continues this current 

practice to provide a more in-depth 

analysis of the Postal Service’s progress 

toward meeting its performance goals 

and plans to improve performance in 

future years. To facilitate this review, 

the Commission invites public comment 

on the following issues: 

• Did the Postal Service meet its 

performance goals in FY 2021? 

• Do the FY 2021 Report and the FY 

2022 Plan meet applicable statutory 

requirements, including 39 U.S.C. 2803 

and 2804? 

• What recommendations should the 

Commission provide to the Postal 

Service that relate to protecting or 

promoting public policy objectives in 

title 39? 

• For the Excellent Customer 

Experience performance goal, are there 

any customer experience (CX) metrics 

the Postal Service should add to 

measure CX? 3

• What recommendations or 

observations should the Commission 

make concerning the Postal Service’s 

strategic initiatives? 4

• What other matters are relevant to 

the Commission’s analysis of the FY 

2021 Report and the FY 2022 Plan 

under 39 U.S.C. 3653(d)?
