I. Introduction
On December 19, 2008, the
Commission transmitted to Congress
and to the President a Report on
Universal Postal Service and the Postal
Monopoly (Report) as required by
VerDate Aug<31>2005
18:45 Dec 23, 2008
Jkt 217001
section 702 of the Postal Accountability
and Enhancement Act (PAEA), Public
Law 109–435, 120 Stat. 3218 (2006). The
Report is the product of over 8 months
of review and analysis of information,
comments, and testimony submitted in
Docket No. PI2008–3 1 by the United
States Postal Service (Postal Service),2
other Federal agencies, a member of
Congress, representatives of Postal
Service employee unions, postmaster
associations, users of the mails,
enterprises in the private sector engaged
in the delivery of the mail, and the
general public.3 In addition to its
solicitation of written comments, the
Commission scheduled three field
hearings,4 a hearing in Washington,
DC,5 and a public workshop.6
II. The Commission’s Report
The extensive Commission Report is
available at https://www.prc.gov. It
addresses all of the matters identified in
section 702 of the PAEA, including:
—A comprehensive review of the
history and development of universal
service and the postal monopolies;
—The current legal scope of the
universal service obligation and the
postal letter and mailbox monopolies;
—The scope and standards of universal
service and the postal monopolies
likely to be required in the future to
meet the needs and expectations of
the United States public.
The report recommends no immediate
changes in universal service, the
universal service obligation, the letter
monopoly, or the mailbox monopoly.
However, it recognizes that the Postal
Service is faced with many difficult
challenges stemming both from
technological and social trends, and
volume declines caused by the current
economic downturn, and offers
recommendations identifying areas
where additional information should
assist decision makers if future action
becomes necessary.
1 The proceedings in Docket No. PI2008–3 were
instituted by PRC Order No. 71, Notice and Order
Providing an Opportunity to Comment, April 18,
2008.
2 In addition to the data, testimony, and other
related materials submitted in Docket No. PI2008–
3, the Postal Service also commissioned analyses
which it has made available at https://
www.usps.com/postallaw/
universalpostalservice.htm.
3 The Commission was assisted in this
undertaking by a team of experts assembled by the
School of Public Policy at George Mason University
(GMU) and by GMU’s Center for Social Science
Research.
4 Hearings were held in Flagstaff, Arizona on May
21, 2008; St. Paul, Minnesota on June 5, 2008; and
Portsmouth, New Hampshire on June 19, 2008.
5 The Washington, DC hearing was held on July
10, 2008.
6 The workshop was held in Washington, DC on
June 12, 2008.

Primary Commission findings are:
—The universal service obligation has
seven attributes: (1) Geographic scope;
(2) range of products; (3) access to
postal facilities; (4) delivery
frequency; (5) prices/affordability; (6)
quality of service; and (7) users’
rights.
—The current obligation to provide
service to all persons in all parts of
the Nation, its territories, and
possessions, is paramount, and
should not be altered.
—Current law makes the universal
service obligation applicable to both
market dominant and competitive
products.
—A first estimate of the annual cost of
the universal service obligation, based
on FY 2007, is $4.4 billion.
—A first estimate of the annual value of
the combined letter mail and mailbox
monopolies, based on FY 2007, is $3.5
billion, although this estimate is
subject to substantial variation.
Accompanying the Report is a CD that
contains the extensive body of material
underlying the Report that was
developed for the Commission under a
contract with the George Mason
University School of Public Policy. All
of this material can be accessed on the
Commission Web site. For the USO
Report: https://www.prc.gov/docs/61/
6128/USO Report.pdf. For the USO
Appendices and Workpapers: https://
www.prc.gov/prc-pages/library/
USOAppendices.aspx.
III. Public Comments
The Commission’s Report is a further
step in the ongoing evolution of postal
services. The information and analyses
contained in the Report will form an
important part of the basis for future
discussions and action on issues facing
the Postal Service. While the PAEA does
not specifically require the Commission
to solicit comments on its Report, the
Commission believes that further
discussion would be facilitated and the
record further enhanced by establishing
a new docket that gives the public an
opportunity to comment. Following the
receipt of additional comments, the
Commission may decide to issue a
supplemental report. The Commission
urges those persons and entities that
participated in the proceedings in
Docket No. PI2008–3, as well as any
other interested persons, to review the
Report carefully and provide their
comments in this new docket.
IV. Public Representative
Section 505 of title 39 requires the
designation of an officer of the
Commission in all public proceedings to
