Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 177 / Thursday, September 14, 2023 / Proposed Rules
(4) revising the PSLW price structure
that focused on destination entry only.4
Proposal. The Postal Service proposes
that the PS/PRS mail processing and
transportation cost models be modified
to accommodate both the previous price
structure and the new price structure.
Petition, Proposal Five at 2–3. The
Postal Service confirms that both price
structures were in place for portions of
FY 2023. Id. at 3.
Rationale and impact. The Postal
Service provided a modified mail
processing cost model in the Excel file
‘‘USPS–FY22–NP15.PROP.FIVE.xls’’
and a modified transportation cost
model in the Excel file ‘‘USPS–FY22–
NP16.PROP.FIVE.xls’’ under seal in
Library Reference USPS–RM2023–10–
NP1. Id. at 3, 11.
The Postal Service states that the
Docket No. ACR2022 Cost and Revenue
Analysis (CRA) proportional adjustment
factor is incorporated in the model as a
value so that the factor does not
recalculate based on proposed FY 2023
modifications and the CRA proportional
adjustment factor will be calculated as
usual when the Docket No. ACR2023
cost model input data become available.
Id. at 3.
The Postal Service has incorporated
DHUB cost estimates for machinable,
nonmachinable, oversize PSHW, and
PSLW mailpieces into the summary
worksheet of the modified mail
processing cost model. Id. The new
price structure consists of four
destination entry levels: destination
network distribution center, destination
sectional center facility, DHUB, and
destination delivery unit (DDU). Id. at 4.
There are numerous other changes to
other pages in the workbook described.
Id. at 4–11.
The Postal Service states that the
transportation cost model has been
expanded to include both DHUB and
DDU transportation cost estimates. Id.
However, since there is no DHUB data
currently available the Postal Service
used intermediate and long distance
PSLW DDU costs as proxies for PSLW
DHUB costs. Id. The Postal Service
states that the current methodology used
to develop the DHUB cost estimates in
the transportation cost model is a
temporary solution. Id. at 13. The Postal
Service assures that the cost model will
be modified so that the DHUB
transportation costs will be estimated
using the same methodology as other
price categories once DHUB volume and
cubic feet data become available. Id.
4 Docket Nos. CP2023–113 and CP2023–114,
Order Concerning Changes in Rates of General
Applicability and Classifications for First-Class
Package Service and Parcel Select, June 7, 2023, at
1 (Order No. 6536).
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:39 Sep 13, 2023
Jkt 259001
Finally, the Postal Service has
provided the mail processing unit cost
estimates and the transportation cost
estimate impacts under seal in an Excel
file in Library Reference USPS–
RM2023–10–NP1. Id. The Postal Service
asserts that adoption of the proposed
cost models would have no impact on
the FY 2022 CRA-level costs. Id.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Rationale. On July 31, 2023, the

Manufacturing Facilities Technology
Review,’’ 88 FR 49402 (July 31, 2023).
In the proposal, the EPA provided a

for additional time to review and
comment on the proposed rule. After
considering these requests, the EPA has
decided to extend the public comment
period another 15 days, until September
29, 2023, so that the comment period
will be a total of 60 days. This extension
will ensure that the public has
additional time to review and comment
on the proposed rule.
Docket. The EPA has established a
docket for this rulemaking under Docket
ID No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2002–0083. All
documents in the docket are listed in

claimed to be CBI or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Do not submit electronically to https://
