III. Ordering Paragraphs 

I. Introduction 

Pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 

CFR 3020.30 et seq., the Postal Service 

filed a formal request and associated 

supporting information to add Priority 

Mail Contract 28 to the competitive 

product list.1 The Postal Service asserts 

that Priority Mail Contract 28 is a 

competitive product ‘‘not of general 

applicability’’ within the meaning of 39 

U.S.C. 3632(b)(3). Id. at 1. The Postal 

Service states that prices and 

classification underlying this contract 

are supported by Governors’ Decision 

No. 09–6 in Docket No. MC2009–25. Id. 

The Request has been assigned Docket 

No. MC2011–2. 

The Postal Service 

contemporaneously filed a contract 

related to the proposed new product 

pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3632(b)(3) and 39 

CFR 3015.5. The contract has been 

assigned Docket No. CP2011–3. 

Request. In support of its Request, the 

Postal Service filed six attachments as 

follows: 

1. Attachment A—a redacted copy of 

Governors’ Decision No. 09–6, originally 

filed in Docket No. MC2009–25, 

authorizing certain Priority Mail 

contracts; 

2. Attachment B—a redacted copy of 

the contract; 

3. Attachment C—a proposed change 

in the Mail Classification Schedule 

competitive product list; 

4. Attachment D—a Statement of 

Supporting Justification as required by 

39 CFR 3020.32; 

5. Attachment E—a certification of 

compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a); and 

6. Attachment F—an application for 

non-public treatment of materials to 

maintain redacted portions of the 

contract and supporting documents 

under seal. 

In the Statement of Supporting 

Justification, Brian G. Denneny, Acting 

Manager, Sales and Communications, 

Expedited Shipping, asserts that the 

service to be provided under the 

contract will cover its attributable costs, 

make a positive contribution to 

institutional costs, and increase 

contribution toward the requisite 

5.5 percent of the Postal Service’s total 

institutional costs. Id., Attachment D. 

Thus, Mr. Denneny contends there will 

be no issue of subsidization of 

competitive products by market 

dominant products as a result of this 

contract. Id. 

Related contract. A redacted version 

of the specific Priority Mail Contract 28 

is included with the Request. The 

contract will become effective on the 

day that the Commission provides all 

necessary regulatory approvals. It is 

terminable upon 30 days’ notice by a 

party, but could continue for 3 years. 

The Postal Service represents that the 

contract is consistent with 39 U.S.C. 

3633(a). See id., Attachment D. 

The Postal Service filed much of the 

supporting materials, including the 

specific Priority Mail Contract 28, under 

seal. It maintains that the contract and 

related financial information, including 

the customer’s name and the 

accompanying analyses that provide 

prices, terms, conditions, cost data, and 

financial projections should remain 

under seal. See Attachment F. It also 

requests that the Commission order that 

the duration of such treatment of all 

customer-identifying information be 

extended indefinitely, instead of ending 

after 10 years. Id. at 7. 

II. Notice of Filing 

The Commission establishes Docket 

Nos. MC2011–2 and CP2011–3 for 

consideration of the Request pertaining 

to the proposed Priority Mail Contract 

28 product and the related contract, 

respectively.

comments on whether the Postal 

Service’s filings in the captioned 

dockets are consistent with the policies 

of 39 U.S.C. 3632, 3633, or 3642 and 39 

CFR part 3015 and 39 CFR 3020, subpart 

B. Comments are due no later than 

October 13, 2010.2 The public portions 

of these filings can be accessed via the 

Commission’s Web site (http://
