IV. Ordering Paragraphs
I. Introduction
Each fiscal year, the Postal Service
must discuss its performance goals in its
annual performance plan and annual
performance report. 39 U.S.C. 2803 and
2804. The Postal Service must submit its
most recent annual performance plan
and annual performance report to the
Commission. Id. 3652(g). On December
29, 2016, the Postal Service filed its FY
2016 Annual Report to Congress in
Docket No. ACR2016.1 The FY 2016
Annual Report includes the FY 2016
Annual Performance Report and the FY
2017 Annual Performance Plan. FY
2016 Annual Report at 11–29.
Each year, the Commission must
evaluate whether the Postal Service met
the performance goals established in the
annual performance plan and annual
performance report. 39 U.S.C. 3653(d).
The Commission may also ‘‘provide
recommendations to the Postal Service
related to the protection or promotion of
public policy objectives set out in’’ title
39. Id.
II. Background
In past years, the Commission
evaluated whether the Postal Service
met its performance goals in the Annual
Compliance Determination (ACD). The
Commission later determined that its
evaluation of the Postal Service’s
performance under 39 U.S.C. 3653(d) is
distinguishable from its determination
of compliance or non-compliance in the
ACD under 39 U.S.C. 3653(b). In Docket
Nos. ACR2013, ACR2014, and
ACR2015, the Commission issued
separate reports evaluating whether the
Postal Service met its performance
goals.2 By issuing separate reports, the

and plans to improve performance in
future years.
As it did in recent years, the
Commission will evaluate whether the
Postal Service met its FY 2016
performance goals in a report separate
from the FY 2016 ACD. To facilitate this
review, the Commission invites public
comment on the following issues:
• Did the Postal Service meet its
performance goals in FY 2016?
• Do the FY 2016 Annual
Performance Report and the FY 2017
Annual Performance Plan meet
applicable statutory requirements,
including 39 U.S.C. 2803 and 2804?
• What recommendations should the
Commission provide to the Postal
Service that relate to protecting or
promoting public policy objectives in
title 39?
• What recommendations or
observations should the Commission
make concerning the Postal Service’s
strategic initiatives? 3
• What other matters are relevant to
the Commission’s analysis of the FY
2016 Annual Performance Report and
the FY 2017 Annual Performance Plan
under 39 U.S.C. 3653(d)?

Section 3652 requires submission of
data and information on the costs,

some of the material in the FY 2016
ACR appears in non-public annexes.
The filing begins a review process that
results in an Annual Compliance

Commission to determine whether
Postal Service products offered during
FY 2016 were in compliance with
applicable title 39 requirements.
II. Overview of the Postal Service’s FY
2016 ACR
Contents of the filing. The Postal
Service’s FY 2016 ACR consists of a 94page narrative; extensive additional

and identified in Attachment One; and
an application for non-public treatment
of certain materials, along with
supporting rationale, filed as
Attachment Two. The filing also
includes the Comprehensive
Statement,2 Report to the Secretary of

the Postal Service’s reports prepared pursuant to 39
U.S.C. 2803 and 39 U.S.C. 2804 (filed as the
Comprehensive Statement by the Postal Service) in
its ACD. However, as it did last year, the
Commission intends to issue a separate notice
soliciting comments on the comprehensive
statement and provide its related analysis in a
separate report from the ACD.
