I. Introduction 

The Commission initiates this 

rulemaking to consider revisions to 

update the existing annual and periodic 

service performance reporting 

requirements for the Postal Service’s 

Market Dominant products, which are 

codified in 39 CFR part 3055, subparts 

A and B, as well as related revisions 

consistent with the Postal Service 

Reform Act of 2022 (PSRA).1 The 

Commission hereby seeks comments to 

facilitate the Commission’s examination 

of these reporting requirements. 

II. Background 

The Postal Accountability and 

Enhancement Act (PAEA) granted the 

Commission enhanced information 

gathering and reporting responsibilities. 

See 39 U.S.C. 3652(e)(1). The PAEA 

provides that the Commission shall 

prescribe the content and form of the 

public reports that the Postal Service 

files with the Commission under section 

3652. Id. In doing so, the Commission 

must attempt to provide the public with 

timely information that is adequate to 

allow it to assess the lawfulness of 

Postal Service rates, should attempt to 

avoid unnecessary or unwarranted 

Postal Service effort and expense, and 

must endeavor to protect the 

confidentiality of commercially 

sensitive information. See id. The 

Commission may initiate proceedings to 

improve the quality, accuracy, or 

completeness of Postal Service reporting 

whenever it determines that the service 

performance data have become 

significantly inadequate, could be 

significantly improved, or otherwise 

require revision as necessitated by the 

public interest. 39 U.S.C. 3652(e)(2). 

In Docket No. RM2009–11, the 

Commission issued its initial periodic 

reporting requirements of service 

performance measurements under the 

PAEA.2 Since then, there have been a 

number of relevant modifications to 

those requirements as well as the 

systems used to measure service 

performance generally.3 Moreover, in
