The Postal Service proposes to revise the following existing systems of records titled, ``USPS 810.100, https://www.usps.com Registration,'' ``USPS 810.200, https://www.usps.com Ordering, Payment and Fulfillment,'' and ``USPS 860.000, Financial Transactions.'' The modifications clarify user information in Categories of Records in the System, Purpose, Retention and Disposal and Systems Manager(s). Background: The Postal Service's commitment to universal service is based on a foundation of providing secure products and services to postal customers. As a trusted organization, the Postal Service faces a variety of security challenges which require investigative, preventive, and security responses. The Postal Service works collaboratively with internal and external groups to ensure new postal products and services are secure, thus maintaining customers' confidence in the mail and satisfying their personal and business needs. This includes providing postal customers with secure access to products and services in all channels. As online access to retail products and services has grown, new types of fraudulent activities have emerged to challenge the security of online transactions. The Postal Service has responded by developing fraud prevention initiatives designed to protect the security of financial transactions on usps.com. These initiatives include enhanced capabilities for ensuring the accuracy and security of credit card transactions conducted by national and international customers on usps.com. Modifications to the systems of records will be reflected in the Categories of Records in the System as it relates to business-specific and user information, purpose, and retention and disposal of online user information.

Notice is hereby given that a complaint was filed with the U.S. International Trade Commission on April 4, 2008, under section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, on behalf of Ultra Products, Inc. of Fletcher, Ohio and Systemax Inc. of Port Washington, New York. A supplement to the complaint was filed on May 1, 2008. The complaint alleges violations of section 337 based upon the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain power supplies that infringe certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 7,133,293. The complaint further alleges that an industry in the United States exists as required by subsection (a)(2) of section 337. The complainants request that the Commission institute an investigation and, after the investigation, issue an exclusion order and cease and desist orders.

In this document, the Commission continues its efforts to transform its rules and policies governing the licensing of the Educational Broadband Service (EBS) and the Broadband Radio Service (BRS) in the 2495-2690 MHz (2.5 GHz) band, with respect to petitions for reconsideration filed in response to the Order on Reconsideration and Fifth Memorandum Opinion and Order and Third Memorandum Opinion and Order and Second Report and Order (Big LEO Order on Reconsideration and AWS 5th MO&O and BRS/EBS 3rd MO&O and 2nd R&O). Also, the Commission's actions in this proceeding further refine its rules to enable licensees to deploy new and innovative wireless services in the 2.5 GHz band. We believe that these actions will facilitate the promotion of broadband service to all Americans.
