changes; presents a table with survey
results; and compares the results from
FY 2010 to FY 2011. Id. at 10–13.
Product analysis and other
information. The FY 2011 ACR includes
a detailed analysis of each market
dominant product, including domestic
NSAs in effect during FY 2011. Id. at
14–48. It also presents information
responsive to 39 U.S.C. 3652(b) on
worksharing discounts. Id. at 50–60.
Competitive products. The FY 2011
ACR provides costs, revenues, and
volumes for competitive products of
general applicability in the FY 2011
CRA (or ICRA). For competitive
products not of general applicability,
data are provided in non-public library
references USPS–FY11–NP2 and USPS–
FY11–NP27. The FY 2011 ACR also
addresses the competitive product
pricing standards of 39 U.S.C. 3633. Id.
at 60–64.
Market tests; nonpostal services. The
Postal Service also addresses the three
market dominant market tests
conducted during FY 2011, the two
competitive market tests conducted
during FY 2011, and nonpostal services.
Id. at 64–68. With respect to the latter,
it notes that in the last ACD, the
Commission linked further reporting on
nonpostal services to the approval of
classification language in Docket No.
MC2010–24, and that docket was still
pending as of the end of FY 2011. The
Postal Service states that it has
attempted to improve its nonpostal
services reporting in this ACR, but it
considers the information it is providing
as generally comparable to what it
previously provided. Id. at 67.
III. Procedural Steps
Statutory requirements. Section 3653
of title 39 requires the Commission to
provide interested persons with an
opportunity to comment on the ACR
and to appoint a Public Representative
to represent the interests of the general
public. The Commission hereby solicits
public comment on the Postal Service’s
FY 2011 ACR and on whether any rates
or fees in effect during FY 2011 (for
products individually or collectively)
were not in compliance with applicable
provisions of chapter 36 of title 39 (or
regulations promulgated thereunder).
Commenters addressing market
dominant products are referred in
particular to the applicable
requirements (39 U.S.C. 3622(d) and (e)
and 3626); objectives (39 U.S.C.
3622(b)); and factors (39 U.S.C. 3622(c)).
Commenters addressing competitive
products are referred to in 39 U.S.C.
3633.
