39 CFR Part 111
Changes in Postal Rates and Fees
AGENCY: Postal Service.
ACTION: Changes in domestic rates and fees.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to its authority under 39 U.S.C. 3625, the Postal
Service is implementing the changes in domestic postage rates and fees
indicated below.
EFFECTIVE DATE: January 1, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Grayson M. Poats, (202) 268-2981.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 8, 1994, the Postal Service filed,
pursuant to chapter 36, title 39, United States Code, a request with
the Postal Rate Commission for a recommended decision on changes in
rates of postage and fees for domestic postal services. An explanation
of the Postal Service proposal with an invitation to participate in
Commission Docket No. R94-1 was published in the Federal Register by
the Postal Rate Commission on March 18, 1994 (59 FR 12996-13016).
On November 30, 1994, the Postal Rate Commission issued an Opinion
and Recommended Decision in Docket No. R94-1. In its Recommended
Decision, the Commission recommended changes in the rates of postage
and fees for domestic postal services.
In a decision adopted on December 12, 1994, the Governors of the
Postal Service allowed the Commission's recommended changes in rates
and fees to take effect under protest. The Governors ordered these
changes into effect on a permanent basis, pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3625.
Also on December 12, 1994, the Board of Governors determined that these
changes would become effective at 12:01 a.m. on January 1, 1995. (The
Governors' decision, the record of the Commission's hearings, and the
Commission's Opinion and Recommended Decision may be purchased from the
Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402. The Governors' decision and the Commission's
Opinion and Recommended Decision are available for inspection in the
Library at Headquarters, U.S. Postal Service, 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW,
Washington, DC 20260-1641.)
In accordance with these actions by the Governors and the Board of
Governors, the Postal Service hereby gives notice that the domestic
rate and fee changes listed below become effective at 12:01 a.m. on
January 1, 1995.
Authority: 39 U.S.C. 101(d), 401, 403, 404, 3621, 3625, 3626.
