SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June
22, 2012, the Postal Service filed notice
with the Commission of changes in rates
of general applicability and concomitant
classification changes for a competitive
product pursuant to 39 CFR 3015.2.1
The Postal Service seeks to implement
prices for a new Express Mail Padded
Flat Rate Envelope. The prices would be
the same as the existing Express Mail
Regular and Legal Flat Rate Envelopes.
The Postal Service represents that
because these changes are only
establishing another type of Express
Mail Flat Rate Envelope at the same
prices as the existing Express Mail
Regular and Legal Flat Rate Envelopes,
they will have no effect on the ability
of the Express Mail product as a whole
to cover its costs or make an appropriate
contribution to institutional costs.
The Postal Service includes three
attachments with its Notice in support
of its proposal to add new prices:
• Decision of the Governors of the
United States Postal Service on
Establishment of Rate and Class of
General Applicability for Express Mail
Padded Flat Rate Envelope (Governors’
Decision No. 12–01);
• Management Analysis: Express Mail
Padded Flat Rate Envelope; and
• Proposed Mail Classification
Schedule language.
The Commission establishes Docket
No. CP2012–39 for consideration of
matters related to the Postal Service’s
filing.
Interested persons may submit
comments on whether the Postal
Service’s Notice and other filings are
consistent with the policies of 39 U.S.C.
3632, 3633 and 3642 as well as 39 CFR
parts 3015 and 3020. Comments are due
no later than July 9, 2012. The Postal
Service’s Notice can be accessed via the
Commission’s Web site (https://
www.prc.gov).
The Commission appoints Natalie Rea
Ward to serve as Public Representative
in this proceeding.
