    POSTAL RATE COMMISSION
    
    [Order No. 1087, Docket No. A96-3]
    
    
    Notice and Order Accepting Appeal and Establishing Procedural 
    Schedule Under 39 U.S.C. 404(b)(5)
    
        Issued November 15, 1995.
        Before Commissioners: Edward J. Gleiman, Chairman; W.H. ``Trey'' 
    LeBlanc III, Vice-Chairman; George W. Haley; H. Edward Quick, Jr.
        In the Matter of: Weston, Michigan 49289 (Donald Buehrer, 
    Petitioner).
        Docket Number: A96-3.
        Name of Affected Post Office: Weston, Michigan 49289.
        Name(s) of Petitioner(s): Donald Buehrer.
        Type of Determination: Closing.
        Date of Filing of Appeal Papers: November 7, 1995.
        Categories of Issues Apparently Raised: 1. Effect on postal 
    services [39 U.S.C. 404(b)(2)(C)]. 2. Effect on the community [39 
    U.S.C. 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. 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 
    November 22, 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.
