BILLING CODE 6325–38–P
In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice
announces that the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) intends to submit to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) a request for comments of a
revised information collection. This
information collection, ‘‘Report of
Medical Examination of Person Electing
Survivor Benefits Under the Civil
Service Retirement System’’ (OMB
Control No. 3206–0162; OPM Form
1530), is used to collect information
regarding an annuitant’s health so that
OPM can determine whether the
insurable interest survivor benefit
election can be allowed.
Comments are particularly invited on:
Whether this information is necessary
for the proper performance of functions
of the Office of Personnel Management,
and whether it will have practical
utility; whether our estimate of the
public burden of this collection of
information is accurate, and based on
valid assumptions and methodology;
and ways in which we can minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, through
the use of appropriate technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Approximately 500 OPM Form 1530
will be completed annually. We
estimate it takes approximately 90
minutes to complete the form. The
annual estimated burden is 750 hours.
For copies of this proposal, contact
Cyrus S. Benson on (202) 606–4808,
FAX (202) 606–0910 or via e-mail to
Cyrus.Benson@opm.gov. Please include
a mailing address with your request.

days from the date of this publication.

III. Ordering Paragraphs
I. Introduction
On May 27, 2010, the Postal Service
filed a notice announcing that it has
entered into an additional Global
Expedited Package Services 2 (GEPS 2)
contract.1 The Postal Service believes
the instant contract is functionally
equivalent to previously submitted
GEPS 2 contracts, and is supported by
Governors’ Decision No. 08-7, attached
to the Notice and originally filed in
Docket No. CP2008-4. Id. at 1,
Attachment 3. The Notice also explains
that Order No. 86, which established
1 Notice of United States Postal Service Filing of
Functionally Equivalent Global Expedited Package
Services 2 Negotiated Service Agreement and
Application for Non-Public Treatment of Materials
Filed Under Seal, May 27, 2010 (Notice).
PO 00000

GEPS 1 as a product, also authorized
functionally equivalent agreements to be
included within the product, provided
that they meet the requirements of 39
U.S.C. 3633. Id. at 1. In Order No. 290,
the Commission approved the GEPS 2
product.2
The instant contract. The Postal
Service filed the instant contract
pursuant to 39 CFR 3015.5. In addition,
the Postal Service contends that the
contract is in accordance with Order No.
86. The term of the contract is one year
from the date the Postal Service notifies
the customer that all necessary
regulatory approvals have been
received.
In support of its Notice, the Postal
Service filed four attachments as
follows:
•Attachment 1—a redacted copy of
the contract;
•Attachment 2—a certified statement
required by 39 CFR 3015.5(c)(2);
•Attachment 3—a redacted copy of
Governors’ Decision No. 08-7 which
establishes prices and classifications for
GEPS contracts, a description of
applicable GEPS contracts, formulas for
prices, an analysis and certification of
the formulas and certification of the
Governors’ vote; and
•Atachment 4—an application for
non-public treatment of materials to
maintain redacted portions of the
contract and supporting documents
under seal.
The Notice advances reasons why the
instant GEPS 2 contract fits within the
Mail Classification Schedule language
for GEPS 2. The Postal Service identifies
customer-specific information, general
contract terms, and other differences
that distinguish the instant contract
from the baseline GEPS 2 agreement, all
of which are highlighted in the Notice.
Id. at 3-6.
The Postal Service contends that the
instant contract is functionally
equivalent to previously filed GEPS
contracts and is substantially similar to
that in Docket No. CP2009-50 in terms
of the product being offered, the market
in which it is offered, and its cost
characteristics. Id. at 2-3. See also id. at
6 (‘‘[T]he relevant cost and market
characteristics are similar, if not the
same for these five contracts and the
baseline GEPS 2 contract’’).
The Postal Service also contends that
its filings demonstrate that the new
GEPS 2 contract complies with the
requirements of 39 U.S.C. 3633. It
requests that the contract be included
within the GEPS 2 product. Id. at 7.
