III. Ordering Paragraphs
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
16 to the competitive product list.1 The
1 Request of the United States Postal Service to
Add First-Class Package Service Contract 16 to
Competitive Product List and Notice of Filing

Jkt 229001
Postal Service asserts that First-Class
Package Service Contract 16 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.
MC2012–49.
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. CP2012–61.
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

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.
Related contract. The Postal Service
included a redacted version of the
related contract with the Request. Id.
Attachment B. The contract is
scheduled to become effective on the
date that the Commission issues all
regulatory approvals. Id. at 2. The
contract will expire 3 years from the
effective date unless, among other
things, either party terminates the
agreement upon 30 days’ written notice
to the other party. Id. The Postal Service
represents that the contract is consistent
with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a). Id. Attachment
D.
The Postal Service filed much of the
supporting materials, including the
related contract, under seal. Id.
Attachment F. It maintains that the
PO 00000
Frm 00055
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

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,
pricing formulas, information relevant
to the customer’s mailing profile, and
cost coverage projections. Id. The Postal
Service asks the Commission to protect
customer-identifying information from
public disclosure indefinitely. Id. at 7.
II. Notice of Filings
The Commission establishes Docket
Nos. MC2012–49 and CP2012–61 to
consider the Request pertaining to the
proposed First-Class Package Service
Contract 16 product and the related
contract, respectively.

Service’s filings in the captioned

B. Comments are due no later than
October 9, 2012. The public portions of
these filings can be accessed via the
Commission’s Web site (https://
