information) or DocketAdmins@prc.gov
(electronic filing assistance).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to 39 U.S.C.
404(d), on August 30, 2011, the
Commission received a petition for
review of the Postal Service’s
determination to close the Bentonville
post office in Bentonville, Ohio. The
petition was filed by Linda Naylor on
behalf of the Citizens of Bentonville
(Petitioner) and is postmarked August
24, 2011. The Commission hereby
institutes a proceeding under 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(5) and establishes Docket No.
A2011–58 to consider Petitioner’s
appeal. If Petitioner would like to
further explain her position with
supplemental information or facts,
Petitioner may either file a Participant
Statement on PRC Form 61 or file a brief
with the Commission no later than
October 4, 2011.
Categories of issues apparently raised.
Petitioner contends that: (1) The Postal
Service failed to consider the effect of
the closing on the community (see 39
U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(i)); and (2) the Postal
Service failed to consider whether or
not it will continue to provide a
maximum degree of effective and
regular postal services to the community
(see 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(iii)).
After the Postal Service files the
administrative record and the
Commission reviews it, the Commission
may find that there are more legal issues
than those set forth above, or that the
Postal Service’s determination disposes
of one or more of those issues. The
deadline for the Postal Service to file the
applicable administrative record with
the Commission is September 14, 2011.
See 39 CFR 3001.113. In addition, the
due date for any responsive pleading by
the Postal Service to this Notice is
