of an expiring information collection.
This information collection, ‘‘Claim for

properly assign a deceased Federal
civilian employee’s unpaid
compensation to the appropriate
individuals(s).

Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:

Service has also filed a related contract.
The notice addresses procedural steps
associated with these filings.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
On September 23, 2008, the Postal
Service filed a formal request pursuant
to 39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30
et seq. to add the Priority Mail Contract
1 product to the Competitive Product
List. The Postal Service asserts that the
Priority Mail Contract 1 product is a
competitive product ‘‘not of general
applicability’’ within the meaning of 39
PO 00000
Frm 00158
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
U.S.C. 3632(b)(3). This Request has been
assigned Docket No. MC2008–8.1
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 is assigned
Docket No. CP2008–26. The Postal
Service represents that the contract fits
within the proposed Mail Classification
Schedule (MCS) language and is set to
expire 2 years from the effective date
unless renewed by mutual consent.
Request. The Request is filed pursuant
to 39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30
et seq. The Request incorporates (1) A
redacted version of the Governors’
Decision authorizing the new product;
(2) a redacted version of the contract; (3)
requested changes in the MCS product
list; (4) submission of supporting
material under seal; and (5) certification
of compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a).2
Substantively, it requests that the
Priority Mail Contract 1 product be
added to the competitive product list.
Request at 1–2. The Postal Service states
the service to be provided under the
contract will cover its attributable costs
and make a positive contribution to
coverage of institutional costs.3 The
Postal Service also asserts that the
contract will increase contribution
toward the requisite 5.5 percent of the
Postal Service’s total institutional costs.
As a result, the Request contends there
will be no issue of subsidization of
competitive products by market
dominant products. Id. at 1.
The Postal Service’s filing includes a
redacted version of the contract related
to the proposed new product pursuant
to 39 U.S.C. 3632(b)(3) and 39 CFR
3015.5. By its terms, the contract will
expire 2 years from the effective date,
which is proposed to be 1 day after the
Commission approves the required
addition of this product to the product
list. The Postal Service maintains that
the contract pricing and customer1 Request of the United States Postal Service to
Add Priority Mail Contract to Competitive Product
List and Notice of Establishment of Rates and Class
Not of General Applicability, September 23, 2008
(Request).
2 Attachment A to the Request consists of the
redacted Decision of the Governors of the United
States Postal Service on Establishment of Rates and
Class Not of General Applicability for Priority Mail
Service (Governors’ Decision No. 08–11). The
Governors’ Decision includes an attachment which
is an analysis of the proposed Priority Mail Service
Contract. Attachment B is the redacted version of
the contract. Attachment C shows the requested
changes in the MCS product list. Attachment D
provides a statement of supporting justification for
this Request. Attachment E provides the
certification of compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a).
3 See Attachment D which provides information
on the impact of the product cost and states that
Priority Mail is provided in a highly competitive
market which affects the pricing of these products.
