Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request for Review of a Revised 

Information Collection: (OMB Control 

No. 3206–0162; OPM Form 1530) 

AGENCY: Office of Personnel 

Management. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 

L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice 

announces that the Office of Personnel 

Management (OPM) intends to submit to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) a request for comments of a 

revised information collection. This 

information collection, ‘‘Report of 

Medical Examination of Person Electing 

Survivor Benefits Under the Civil 

Service Retirement System’’ (OMB 

Control No. 3206–0162; OPM Form 

1530), is used to collect information 

regarding an annuitant’s health so that 

OPM can determine whether the 

insurable interest survivor benefit 

election can be allowed. 

Comments are particularly invited on: 

Whether this information is necessary 

for the proper performance of functions 

of the Office of Personnel Management, 

and whether it will have practical 

utility; whether our estimate of the 

public burden of this collection of 

information is accurate, and based on 

valid assumptions and methodology; 

and ways in which we can minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, through 

the use of appropriate technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

Approximately 500 OPM Form 1530 

will be completed annually. We 

estimate it takes approximately 90 

minutes to complete the form. The 

annual estimated burden is 750 hours.

I. Introduction

III. Ordering Paragraphs 

I. Introduction 

On May 27, 2010, the Postal Service 

filed a notice announcing that it has 

entered into an additional Global 

Expedited Package Services 2 (GEPS 2) 

contract.1 The Postal Service believes 

the instant contract is functionally 

equivalent to previously submitted 

GEPS 2 contracts, and is supported by 

Governors’ Decision No. 08-7, attached 

to the Notice and originally filed in 

Docket No. CP2008-4. Id. at 1, 

Attachment 3. The Notice also explains 

that Order No. 86, which established 

GEPS 1 as a product, also authorized 

functionally equivalent agreements to be 

included within the product, provided 

that they meet the requirements of 39 

U.S.C. 3633. Id. at 1. In Order No. 290, 

the Commission approved the GEPS 2 

product.2

The instant contract. The Postal 

Service filed the instant contract 

pursuant to 39 CFR 3015.5. In addition, 

the Postal Service contends that the 

contract is in accordance with Order No. 

86. The term of the contract is one year 

from the date the Postal Service notifies 

the customer that all necessary 

regulatory approvals have been 

received. 

In support of its Notice, the Postal 

Service filed four attachments as 

follows: 

•Attachment 1—a redacted copy of 

the contract; 

•Attachment 2—a certified statement 

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

•Attachment 3—a redacted copy of 

Governors’ Decision No. 08-7 which 

establishes prices and classifications for 

GEPS contracts, a description of 

applicable GEPS contracts, formulas for 

prices, an analysis and certification of 

the formulas and certification of the 

Governors’ vote; and 

•Atachment 4—an application for 

non-public treatment of materials to 

maintain redacted portions of the 

contract and supporting documents 

under seal. 

The Notice advances reasons why the 

instant GEPS 2 contract fits within the 

Mail Classification Schedule language 

for GEPS 2. The Postal Service identifies 

customer-specific information, general 

contract terms, and other differences 

that distinguish the instant contract 

from the baseline GEPS 2 agreement, all 

of which are highlighted in the Notice. 

Id. at 3-6. 

The Postal Service contends that the 

instant contract is functionally 

equivalent to previously filed GEPS 

contracts and is substantially similar to 

that in Docket No. CP2009-50 in terms 

of the product being offered, the market 

in which it is offered, and its cost 

characteristics. Id. at 2-3. See also id. at 

6 (‘‘[T]he relevant cost and market 

characteristics are similar, if not the 

same for these five contracts and the 

baseline GEPS 2 contract’’). 

The Postal Service also contends that 

its filings demonstrate that the new 

GEPS 2 contract complies with the 

requirements of 39 U.S.C. 3633. It 

requests that the contract be included 

within the GEPS 2 product. Id. at 7.
