FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Stephen L. Sharfman, General Counsel,
at 202–789–6820 (case-related
information) or DocketAdmins@prc.gov
(electronic filing assistance).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
February 24, 2011, the Postal Service
filed a request with the Commission to
modify the market dominant and the
competitive product lists pursuant to 39
U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq.1
The Postal Service proposes to: (1)
remove commercial First-Class Mail
Parcels from the market dominant
product list; and (2) add a new product,
provisionally titled Lightweight
Commercial Parcels, to the competitive
product list.
The Postal Service explains that
commercial First-Class Mail Parcels
refers to the First-Class Mail
Commercial Base Parcels and the FirstClass Mail Commercial Plus Parcels
price categories of the First-Class Mail
Parcels product. Id. at 1, n.1. It contends
that these are essentially fulfillment
shipping offerings that compete with an
assortment of comparable products
offered by competitors. Id. at 2. Thus,
the Postal Service proposes to remove
these price categories from the market
dominant First-Class Mail Parcels
product and add the price categories to
the competitive product list as a new
product titled ‘‘Lightweight Commercial
Parcels.’’ Content restrictions will be
added to the new product prohibiting
the inclusion of letters as defined under
the Private Express Statutes. This
proposal does not affect the current
market dominant retail First-Class Mail
Parcels offerings.
The Postal Service includes the
following attachments with its Request:
• Attachment A—Resolution of the
Governors of the United States Postal
Service, Resolution No. 11–3,
Restructuring First-Class Mail Parcel
Product Offerings;
• Attachment B—Statement of
Supporting Justification; and
• Attachment C—Mail Classification
Changes.
The Commission establishes Docket
No. MC2011–22 to consider the Postal
Service’s product list modification
proposals described within its Request.
Interested persons may submit
comments on whether the Postal
Service’s filing in the captioned docket
is consistent with the policies of 39
U.S.C. 3642, 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq. and
the general provisions of title 39.
Comments are due no later than March
16, 2011. Reply comments, if any, are
due March 25, 2011. The Postal
Service’s filing can be accessed via the
Commission’s Web site (https://
www.prc.gov).
The Commission appoints Emmett
Rand Costich to serve as Public
Representative in the captioned
proceedings.
It is ordered:
1. The Commission establishes Docket
No. MC2011–22 for consideration of
matters raised by the Postal Service’s
Request.
2. Comments by interested persons in
this proceeding are due no later than
March 16, 2011.
3. Reply comments by interested
persons in this proceeding are due no

4. Pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 505, Emmett
Rand Costich is appointed to serve as

Representative) to represent the
interests of the general public in this
proceeding.
5. The Secretary shall arrange for
