ACTION: Notice of a change in rates of general applicability for competitive products. SUMMARY: This notice sets forth changes in rates of general applicability for competitive products. DATES: Effective date: January 22, 2017. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Daniel J. Foucheaux, Jr., 202-268- 2989. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 11, 2016, pursuant to their authority under 39 U.S.C. 3632, the Governors of the Postal Service established prices and classification changes for competitive products. The Governors Decision and the record of proceedings in connection with such decision are reprinted below in accordance with section 3632(b)(2). Stanley F. Mires, Attorney, Federal Compliance. 1
DECISION OF THE GOVERNORS OF THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE ON CHANGES IN RATES OF GENERAL APPLICABILITY FOR COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS (GOVERNORS DECISION NO. 16-7) October 11, 2016 STATEMENT OF EXPLANATION AND JUSTIFICATION Pursuant to authority under section 3632 of title 39, as amended by the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006 ( PAEA ), I establish new prices of general applicability for the Postal Service s shipping services (competitive products), and such changes in classifications as are necessary to define the new prices. The changes are described generally below, with a detailed description of the changes in the attachment. The attachment includes the draft Mail Classification Schedule sections with classification changes in legislative format, and new prices displayed in the price charts. As shown in the nonpublic annex being filed under seal herewith, the changes I establish should enable each competitive product to cover its attributable costs (39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(2)) and should result in competitive products as a whole complying with 39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(3), which, as implemented by 39 CFR 3015.7(c), requires competitive products collectively to contribute a minimum of 5.5 percent to the Postal Service s institutional costs. Accordingly, no issue of subsidization of competitive products by market dominant products should arise (39 U.S.C. 3633(a)(1)). I therefore find that the new prices are in accordance with 39 U.S.C. 3632-3633 and 39 CFR 3015.2. I. 2
Governors Decision No. 16-7 Page 2 Domestic Products A. Priority Mail Express Overall, the Priority Mail Express price change represents a 3.4 percent increase. The existing structure of zoned Retail, Commercial Base, and Commercial Plus price categories is maintained, with Commercial Base and Commercial Plus prices continuing to be set equal to each other. Retail prices will increase an average of 3.7 percent. The price for the Retail Flat Rate Envelope, a significant portion of all Priority Mail Express volume, is increasing to $23.75. The prices for the Retail Flat Rate Envelope, Padded Flat Rate Envelope, and Legal Flat Rate Envelope will have differentiated prices for 2017. The Commercial Base price category offers lower prices to customers who use online and other authorized postage payment methods. The Commercial Base prices will increase 2.4 percent on average. Commercial Base prices will be set at a flat 11.2 percent discount off of Retail prices. The Commercial Plus price category has traditionally offered even lower prices to largevolume customers. However, recognizing that the Postal Service is at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace by publishing these highly discounted prices that are viewable by all customers, Commercial Plus prices were matched to the Commercial Base prices in 2016 and will continue to be in 2017. For January, Commercial Plus prices as a whole will receive a 2.3 percent increase on average. B. Priority Mail On average, the Priority Mail prices will be increased by 3.9 percent. The existing structure of Priority Mail Retail, Commercial Base, and Commercial Plus price categories is maintained. Retail prices will increase an average of 3.3 percent. Retail Flat Rate Box prices will be: Small, $7.15; Medium, $13.60; Large, $18.85 and Large APO/FPO/DPO, $17.35. Thus, the Large APO/FPO/DPO Flat Rate Box will be $1.50 less than the Large Flat Rate Box. The regular Flat Rate Envelope will be priced at $6.65, with the Legal Size and Padded Flat Rate Envelopes priced at $6.95 and $7.20, respectively. 3
Governors Decision No. 16-7 Page 3 The Commercial Base price category offers lower prices to customers using authorized postage payment methods. The Commercial Base prices will increase 4.1 percent on average. Commercial Base prices will, on average, reflect a 13.6 percent discount off of Retail prices. The Commercial Plus price category has traditionally offered even lower prices to largevolume customers. For January, Commercial Plus prices as a whole will receive a 4.5 percent increase and will average 16.8 percent off Retail prices. C. Parcel Select On average, prices for destination-entered non-lightweight Parcel Select, the Postal Service s bulk ground shipping product, will increase 4.9 percent. For destination delivery unit (DDU) entered parcels, the average price increase is 4.9 percent. For destination sectional center facility (DSCF) destination entered parcels, the average price increase is 4.8 percent. For destination network distribution center (DNDC) parcels, the average price increase is 5.0 percent. Prices for Parcel Select Lightweight will increase by 8.0 percent. Parcel Select Ground will see a 2.7 percent price increase. D. Parcel Return Service Parcel Return Service prices will have an overall price increase of 5.5 percent. Prices for parcels retrieved at a return Sectional Center Facility (RSCF) will increase by 5.8 percent, and prices for parcels picked up at a return delivery unit (RDU) will increase 5.2 percent. E. First-Class Package Service First-Class Package Service continues to be positioned as a lightweight (less than one pound) offering used by businesses for fulfillment purposes. Overall, First-Class Package Service prices will increase 4.1 percent. F. Retail Ground Retail Ground prices will increase 3.8 percent. Customers shipping in s 1-4 will continue to receive Priority Mail service and will only default to Retail Ground if the item contains hazardous material or is otherwise not permitted to travel by air transportation. 4
Governors Decision No. 16-7 Page 4 G. Domestic Extra Services Premium Forwarding Service (PFS) prices will increase 3.8 percent in 2017. The retail counter enrollment fee will increase to $19.35. The online enrollment option, introduced in 2014, will now be available for $17.75. The weekly reshipment fee will increase to $19.35. New for 2017, for PFS Commercial, Priority Mail Express or Priority Mail shipments can be dispatched in bulk at a flat rate for full and half trays. Prices for Adult Signature service will increase to $5.90 for the basic service and $6.15 for the personspecific service. Address Enhancement Service prices will be increasing between 1.9 and 7.9 percent depending on the particular rate element, to ensure adequate cost coverage. Additionally, the TIGER/ZIP+4 price category will be retired because of low usage. Competitive Post Office Box prices will be increasing 6.5 percent on average, which is within the existing price ranges. Package Intercept Service will increase 3.2 percent, to $12.95. The Pickup On Demand fee, which has not increased since 2013, will increase to $22.00 for 2017. II. International Products A. Expedited Services International expedited services include Global Express Guaranteed (GXG) and Priority Mail Express International (PMEI). Overall, GXG prices will rise by 4.9 percent, and there will be no changes in prices for PMEI. Commercial Plus prices will be equivalent to Commercial Base; however, deeper discounting may still be made available to customers through negotiated service agreements. Customers would also benefit from a new classification change. -rated items tendered at retail counters may be offered at prices equivalent to Priority Mail International (PMI) for certain destinations and weight steps, if all PMEI eligibility requirements are met and the Postal Service determines that service can be improved and/or the PMEI destination country delivery costs are lower than PMI destination country delivery costs. B. 5
Governors Decision No. 16-7 Page 5 Priority Mail International There will be no changes in prices for Priority Mail International (PMI). Commercial Plus prices will be equivalent to Commercial Base; however, deeper discounting may still be made available to customers through negotiated service agreements. This year, service features may change as PMI shipments bearing a designated barcode and dispatched to select destination countries will receive a scan upon delivery in lieu of a signature. C. International Priority Airmail and International Surface Air Lift Published prices for International Priority Airmail (IPA) and International Surface Air Lift (ISAL) will increase by 3.8 percent, and 3.9 percent for their associated M-Bags. D. Airmail M-Bags The published prices for Airmail M-Bags will increase by 4.9 percent. E. First-Class Package International Service There will be no change in prices for First-Class Package International Service (FCPIS). Commercial Plus prices will be equivalent to Commercial Base; however, deeper discounting will still be made available to customers through negotiated service agreements. F. International Ancillary Services and Special Services Prices for several international ancillary services will be increased, with an overall increase of 10.6 percent. However, some services will be increased above average to ensure cost coverage, including International Postal Money Orders, which will increase by 73.7 percent, and Outbound International Registered Mail, which will increase by 7.2 percent. 6
Governors Decision No. 16-7 Page 6 ORDER The changes in prices and classes set forth herein shall be effective at 12:01 A.M. on January 22, 2017.

Priority Mail Retail Balloon Price In s 1-4 (including local), parcels weighing less than 20 pounds but measuring more than 84 inches in combined length and girth (but not more than 108 inches) are charged the applicable price for a 20-pound parcel. Retail Dimensional In s 5-8, parcels exceeding one cubic foot are priced at the actual weight or the dimensional weight, whichever is greater. For box-shaped parcels, the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) of the parcel, and dividing by 194. For irregular-shaped parcels (parcels not appearing box-shaped), the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) at the associated maximum cross-sections of the parcel, dividing by 194, and multiplying by an adjustment factor of 0.785. 26

Commercial Base Dimensional In s 5-8, parcels exceeding one cubic foot are priced at the actual weight or the dimensional weight, whichever is greater. For box-shaped parcels, the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) of the parcel, and dividing by 194. For irregular-shaped parcels (parcels not appearing box-shaped), the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) at the associated maximum cross-sections of the parcel, dividing by 194, and multiplying by an adjustment factor of 0.785. 30

Commercial Plus Dimensional In s 5-8, parcels exceeding one cubic foot are priced at the actual weight or the dimensional weight, whichever is greater. For box-shaped parcels, the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) of the parcel, and dividing by 194. For irregular-shaped parcels (parcels not appearing box-shaped), the dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length (inches) times the width (inches) times the height (inches) at the associated maximum cross-sections of the parcel, dividing by 194, and multiplying by an adjustment factor of 0.785. 34
