The Decision did not include planned increases to pickup on demand fees for Express Mail®, Priority Mail®, GXG, Express Mail International (EMI), and Priority Mail International (PMI) services to conform to the change in the Pickup on DemandTM service fee for Parcel Post® Single-Piece, which was raised in Postal Regulatory Commission Docket No. R2009–2 from $14.75 to $15.30.

See United States Postal Service Notice of Price Adjustment, PRC Docket No. R2009–2 (filed February 10, 2009); PRC Order No. 191 (March 16, 2009).1 Postal Service management has advised the Governors of this matter and has provided them with information concerning the corrected fees.
