POSTAL RATE COMMISSION
[Order No. 1083; Docket No. A96-1]

In the Matter of Burr, Nebraska, 68324-0128 (Robert Brandt, et 
al., Petitioners); Notice and Order Accepting Appeal and Establishing 
Procedural Schedule Under 39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(5)
Issued October 13, 1995.
    Before Commissioners: Edward J. Gleiman, Chairman; W.H. ``Trey'' 
LeBlanc III, Vice-Chairman; George W. Haley; H. Edward Quick, Jr.; 
Wayne A. Schley.

    Docket Number: A96-1
    Name of Affected Post Office: Burr, Nebraska 68324-0128.
    Name(s) of Petitioner(s): Robert Brandt, et al.
    Type of Determination: Consolidation.
    Date of Filing of Appeal Papers: October 5, 1995.
    Categories of Issues Apparently Raised:
    1. Effect on postal services [39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(2)(C)].
    2. Effect on the community [39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(2)(A)].
    After the Postal Service files the administrative record and the 
Commission reviews it, the Commission may find that there are more 
legal issues than those set forth above. Or, the Commission may find 
that the Postal Service's determination disposes of one or more of 
those issues.
    The Postal Reorganization Act requires that the Commission issue 
its decision within 120 days from the date this appeal was filed (39 
U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(5)). In the interest of expedition, in light of the 
120-day decision schedule, the Commission may request the Postal 
Service to submit memoranda of law on any appropriate issue. If 
requested, such memoranda will be due 20 days from the issuance of the 
request and the Postal Service shall serve a copy of its memoranda on 
the petitioners. The Postal Service may incorporate by reference in its 
briefs or motions, any arguments presented in memoranda it previously 
filed in this docket. If necessary, the Commission also may ask 
petitioners or the Postal Service for more information.
    The Commission orders:
    (a) The Postal Service shall file the record in this appeal by 
October 20, 1995.
    (b) The Secretary of the Postal Rate Commission shall publish this 
Notice and Order and Procedural Schedule in the Federal Register.

    By the Commission.
Margaret P. Crenshaw,
Secretary.
