I. Introduction
In accordance with 39 U.S.C. 3642
and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq., the Postal
Service filed a formal request and
associated supporting information to
add First-Class Package Service Contract
19 to the competitive product list.1 The
Postal Service asserts that First-Class
Package Service Contract 19 is a
competitive product ‘‘not of general
applicability’’ within the meaning of 39
U.S.C. 3632(b)(3). Request at 1. The
Request has been assigned Docket No.
MC2012–52.
The Postal Service
contemporaneously filed a redacted
contract related to the proposed new
product under 39 U.S.C. 3632(b)(3) and
39 CFR 3015.5. Id. Attachment B. The
instant contract has been assigned
Docket No. CP2012–64.
Request. To support its Request, the
Postal Service filed six attachments as
follows:
• Attachment A—a redacted copy of
Governors’ Decision No. 11–6,
authorizing the new product;
• Attachment B—a redacted copy of
the contract;
• Attachment C—proposed changes
to the Mail Classification Schedule
competitive product list with the
addition underlined;
• Attachment D—a Statement of
Supporting Justification as required by
39 CFR 3020.32;

compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a); and
• Attachment F—an application for
non-public treatment of materials to
maintain redacted portions of the
contract and related financial
information under seal.
In the Statement of Supporting
Justification, Dennis R. Nicoski,
Manager, Field Sales Strategy and
Contracts, asserts that the contract will
cover its attributable costs, make a
positive contribution to covering
institutional costs, and increase
contribution toward the requisite 5.5
percent of the Postal Service’s total
institutional costs. Id. Attachment D at
1. Mr. Nicoski contends that there will
be no issue of market dominant
products subsidizing competitive
products as a result of this contract. Id.

Add First-Class Package Service Contract 19 to

(Under Seal) of Unredacted Governors’ Decision,

D.
The Postal Service filed much of the
supporting materials, including the
related contract, under seal. Id.

redacted portions of the contract,
customer-identifying information, and
related financial information should
remain confidential. Id. at 3. This
information includes the price structure,
underlying costs and assumptions,

to the customer’s mailing profile, and

Service asks the Commission to protect

public disclosure indefinitely. Id. at 7.
