SUMMARY: The Commission is
conducting a review of the Postal
Service’s planned Standard Mail
Volume Incentive Pricing Program
(Summer Sale). This document invites
public comment.
DATES: Comments are due May 21, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Overview
On May 1, 2009, the Postal Service
filed with the Commission a notice
announcing its intention to adjust prices
for Standard Mail letters and flats
pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3622 and 39 CFR
part 3010.1 The proposed adjustment is
in the form of a ‘‘Standard Mail Volume
Incentive Pricing Program’’ (also known
as the Summer Sale program) with a
planned implementation date of July 1,
2009 and a planned expiration date of
September 30, 2009. This proposal
represents an innovative approach by
the Postal Service to utilize greater
pricing flexibility for market dominant
products under the Postal
Accountability and Enhancement Act
(PAEA), Public Law 109–435, 120 Stat.
3218 (2006).
II. Postal Service Filing
Summer Sale Program. The proposed
Summer Sale program will provide a 30
percent rebate to eligible mailers on
Standard Mail letters and flats volumes
above a mailer specific threshold. Id. at
3. The threshold is calculated based on
the percentage change between the
mailer’s volume during the current
fiscal year (through March 2009) and the
volume for the same period last year
(trend), and applying that percentage to
the volume mailed during the summer
months the previous year (July 1, 2008
and September 30, 2008). Id. at 3–4. To
discourage mailers from shifting
planned October 2009 mailings into the
Summer Sale program, the Postal
Service will measure each mailer’s
1 United States Postal Service Notice of MarketDominant Price Adjustment, May 1, 2009 (Notice).

October 2009 volume against the prior
year’s volume for that month and reduce
the rebate if the mailer is found to have
mailed less in October 2009. Id. at 4.
Eligibility for the Summer Sale
program is limited to mailers who are
permit holders, i.e., owners of a permit
imprint advance deposit account and
who have a demonstrable volume of at
least 1 million Standard Mail letters and
flats between October 1, 2007 and
March 31, 2008 for one or more permit
imprint advance deposit accounts, precanceled stamp permits, or postage
meter permits. Id. at 4. Mail service
providers are not eligible for the
program due to the significant
administrative cost to the Postal Service.
Id. at 5. However, applicants may
qualify for the program with volume
mailed through an account owned by a
mail service provider if the applicant
can adequately demonstrate that it is the
owner of the mail. Id. at 4.
In support of the proposal, the Postal
Service notes that the economy has
adversely affected many postal
customers, resulting in a precipitous
decline in Standard Mail volume. Id. at
2. The Postal Service believes the
Summer Sale program may help its
customers increase use of Standard Mail
during what is typically a low volume
period for Standard Mail. Id. at 2–3. The
Postal Service also believes it will
receive intangible benefits from the
proposed program, including learning
information which may improve postal
data systems, gathering feedback from
customers, which may help fine tune
future programs, and improving
customer relations. Id. at 3.
Conformance with 39 CFR 3010. The
Postal Service’s proposed schedule of
prices appears in Appendix A, attached
to the Notice. Id. at 1. It also represents,
in conformance with the notice
requirements of 39 CFR 3010.14(a)(3),
that it will issue public notice of the
price changes at least 45 days before the
effective date via several additional
means, including issuing notice of the
price changes on the Postal Service’s
Web site (https://www.usps.com), the
Postal Explorer Web site (https://
www.pe.usps.com), the DMM [Domestic
Mail Manual] Advisory, and the P&C
[Producers and Consumers] Weekly, and
a press release announcing the changes.
The Postal Service also states that it
plans to provide public notice of the
price changes in future issues of the
PCC [Postal Customer Council] Insider,
MailPro, the Postal Bulletin, and the
Federal Register. Id. at 1–2. The Postal
Service identifies Greg Dawson,
Manager, Pricing Strategy, as the official
available to provide prompt responses
