Petitioners would like to further explain
their position with supplemental
information or facts, Petitioners may
either file a Participant Statement on
PRC Form 61 or file a brief with the
Commission no later than November 2,

Issues apparently raised. Petitioners
contend that: (1) The Postal Service
failed to consider the effect of the
closing on the community (see 39 U.S.C.

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)); and (3) the Postal
Service failed to adequately consider the
economic savings resulting from the
closure (see 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(iv)).
