Order No. 6043

Competitive Postal Products Postal Regulatory Commission.
Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

On January 3, 2019, the Commission adopted final rules to implement a dynamic formula-based approach for calculating the institutional cost contribution requirement for Competitive products, which is also referred to as the appropriate share, in accordance with the applicable statutory requirements.
Subsequently, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit D.C. Circuit, in a decision issued in April 2020, remanded two issues to the Commission for clarification. This supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking addresses the issues identified by the D.C. Circuit, initiates the Commissions third 5-year review of the appropriate share, reissues the dynamic formula-based approach to calculating the appropriate share as a proposed rule, and invites public comment.

Section 3633b requires that the Commission revisit the appropriate share regulation at least every 5 years in order to determine if the minimum contribution requirement should be retained in its current form, modified, or eliminated. 39 U.S.C. 3633b. In making such a determination, the Commission is required to consider all relevant circumstances, including the prevailing competitive conditions in the market, and the degree to which any costs are uniquely or disproportionately associated with any competitive products.
