provide further information or facts,
Petitioner may either file a Participant
Statement on PRC Form 61 or file a brief

Petitioner contends that (1) The Postal
Service failed to consider the effect of

maximum degree of effective and

(see 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(iii)).
After the Postal Service files the
administrative record and the
