In the Statement of Supporting
Justification, Dennis R. Nicoski,

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 one
business day following the day that the
Commission issues all necessary
regulatory approval. Id. at 3. 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
E.
The Postal Service filed much of the
supporting materials, including the
related contract, under seal. Id.
Attachment F. It maintains that the
redacted portions of the Governors’
Decision, 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. MC2013–50 and CP2013–63 to
consider the Request pertaining to the
proposed Express Mail Contract 15
