Introduction II. Notice of Filing III. Ordering Paragraphs I. Introduction On March 12, 2010, the Postal Service filed a request, pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq., to add a new product to the Competitive Product List. More specifically, it proposes to transfer a small segment of Post Office Box Service, currently classified as a market dominant product and part of the Special Services class, to the Competitive Product List.1 The Postal Service supports its Request with conforming Mail Classification Schedule (MCS) language as Attachment A, a Statement of Supporting Justification as required by 39 CFR 3020.32 as Attachment B, an application for non-public treatment of materials, and a redacted version of the spreadsheet used to calculate revenue as Attachments C and D, respectively. Id. at 3. The Postal Service separately filed a non-public version of the spreadsheet. In the Statement of Supporting Justification, Nan McKenzie, Manager, Special Services, asserts that the transfer of Post Office Box Service in a few locations will not impair the ability of competitive products as a whole to comply with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(3). Id., Attachment B, at 4. Thus, Ms. McKenzie contends there will be no issue of subsidization of competitive products by market dominant products as a result of the proposed change. Id. Post Office Box Service offers secure mail delivery to a receptacle for a fee. The Postal Service states that it intends to establish the new product by moving Post Office Box Service from the Market Dominant Product List to the Competitive Product List in a small number of locations where competitive alternatives exist. Request at 1. The Postal Service describes its initial proposal as modest, involving ‘‘a few box sections where competitive conditions can be already demonstrated.’’ Id. It contends because of the limited number of boxes under consideration, the initial proposal ‘‘does not require detailed examination of costing and other issues.’’ Id. The Postal Service states that in the event a more substantial transfer of box sections is proposed, costing and other issues can be addressed in more detail. Id. It asserts that all of the box sections subject to transfer are in fee group 1 areas, and the proposed transfer of service amounts to less than 0.5 percent 1 Request of the United States Postal Service, March 12, 2010 (Request); see also Notice of the United States Postal Service of Filing of USPSMC2010–20/NP1, March 12, 2010.

The Postal Service notes that it is undertaking a comprehensive evaluation of all Post Office Box locations and may propose additional transfers if justified. Id. at 2. The Postal Service contends that a Governors’ Decision is not required for this request because it does not propose any changes in the parameters of Post Office Box Service, the proposed MCS language is only modified to identify box locations for the competitive product, the transfer includes only fee group 1 prices, and excludes provisions applicable to Group E boxes which are the only method of delivery for certain customers.2 Additionally, the Postal Service advances reasons for the proposed changes to the Post Office Box Service product in conformity with 39 CFR 3020.31, which include: (1) It is not a special classification pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3622(c)(10) for market dominant products; (2) upon transfer to the Competitive Product List, it will not be a product not of general applicability in accordance with 39 U.S.C. 3632(b)(3) for competitive products; and (3) it is not a nonpostal product. Id. at 3. The Postal Service contends that ‘‘transferring a small portion of Post Office box service is appropriate at this time, and is consistent with the standards of section 3642.’’ Id. In its Request, the Postal Service maintains that the supporting financial information, including the calculation of revenue for the ZIP Code locations subject to transfer, should remain under seal.

I. Introduction
    On March 12, 2010, the Postal Service filed a request, pursuant to 
39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq., to add a new product to the 
Competitive Product List. More specifically, it proposes to transfer a 
small segment of Post Office Box Service, currently classified as a 
market dominant product and part of the Special Services class, to the 
Competitive Product List.\1\

    \1\ Request of the United States Postal Service, March 12, 2010 
(Request); see also Notice of the United States Postal Service of 
Filing of USPS-MC2010-20/NP1, March 12, 2010.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Postal Service supports its Request with conforming Mail 
Classification Schedule (MCS) language as Attachment A, a Statement of 
Supporting Justification as required by 39 CFR 3020.32 as Attachment B, 
an application for non-public treatment of materials, and a redacted 
version of the spreadsheet used to calculate revenue as Attachments C 
and D, respectively. Id. at 3. The Postal Service separately filed a 
non-public version of the spreadsheet.
    In the Statement of Supporting Justification, Nan McKenzie, 
Manager, Special Services, asserts that the transfer of Post Office Box 
Service in a few locations will not impair the ability of competitive 
products as a whole to comply with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(3).  Id., 
Attachment B, at 4. Thus, Ms. McKenzie contends there will be no issue 
of subsidization of competitive products by market dominant products as 
a result of the proposed change. Id. Post Office Box Service offers 
secure mail delivery to a receptacle for a fee. The Postal Service 
states that it intends to establish the new product by moving Post 
Office Box Service from the Market Dominant Product List to the 
Competitive Product List in a small number of locations where 
competitive alternatives exist. Request at 1. The Postal Service 
describes its initial proposal as modest, involving ``a few box 
sections where competitive conditions can be already demonstrated.'' 
Id. It contends because of the limited number of boxes under 
consideration, the initial proposal ``does not require detailed 
examination of costing and other issues.'' Id. The Postal Service 
states that in the event a more substantial transfer of box sections is 
proposed, costing and other issues can be addressed in more detail. Id. 
It asserts that all of the box sections subject to transfer are in fee 
group 1 areas, and the proposed transfer of service amounts to less 
than 0.5 percent of the market dominant Post Office Box product's 
revenue. Id. at 2-3. The Postal Service notes that it is undertaking a 
comprehensive evaluation of all Post Office Box locations and may 
propose additional transfers if justified. Id. at 2.
    The Postal Service contends that a Governors' Decision is not 
required for this request because it does not propose any changes in 
the parameters of Post Office Box Service, the proposed MCS language is 
only modified to identify box locations for the competitive product, 
the transfer includes only fee group 1 prices, and excludes provisions 
applicable to Group E boxes which are the only method of delivery for 
certain customers.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Postal Service notes that the MCS language it offers is 
based on the current market dominant Post Office Box language with 
changes necessary to identify the competitive product. It also 
states that the Group E boxes in the affected ZIP Code locations 
that are not being included in the transfer are still a part of the 
Post Office Box Service under evaluation, and Group E boxes may be 
addressed in the future.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, the Postal Service advances reasons for the proposed 
changes to the Post Office Box Service product in conformity with 39 
CFR 3020.31, which include: (1) It is not a special classification 
pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3622(c)(10) for market dominant products; (2) 
upon transfer to the Competitive Product List, it will not be a product 
not of general applicability in accordance with 39 U.S.C. 3632(b)(3) 
for competitive products; and (3) it is not a nonpostal product. Id. at 
3.
    The Postal Service contends that ``transferring a small portion of 
Post Office box service is appropriate at this time, and is consistent 
with the standards of section 3642.'' Id. In its Request, the Postal 
Service maintains that the supporting financial information, including 
the calculation of revenue for the ZIP Code locations subject to 
transfer, should remain under seal. Id., Attachment C.
    The Postal Service states it will concurrently file a notice 
explaining these changes in the Federal Register. Id. at 4.
    The Postal Service urges the Commission to approve the Request. Id. 
at 3.
