Competitive Products Price Changes
This document announces the Postal Service's filing of a notice of price changes for certain competitive (shipping) products and invites public comment.

The reason for their exclusion is that the associated price changes are calculated, for the most part, with reference to certain market dominant products, and the timetable for implementation of pricing for these products is May of each year. Thus, deferral allows this relationship to be maintained. Changes for the competitive products identified in the Postal Service's notice are scheduled to occur on May 11, 2009, which coincides with anticipated changes for market dominant products.
