    POSTAL RATE COMMISSION
    [Docket No. A95-20; Order No. 1077]
    
    
    Notice and Order Accepting Appeal and Establishing Procedural 
    Schedule Under 39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(5)
    
    Issued September 12, 1995.
        Before Commissioners: Edward J. Gleiman, Chairman; W.H. ``Trey'' 
    LeBlanc III, Vice-Chairman; George W. Haley; H. Edward Quick, Jr.; 
    Wayne A. Schley.
    
        In the Matter of: Taintor, Iowa 50253 (Cornelia Lambert, et al., 
    Petitioners).
    
    Docket Number: A95-20
    Name of Affected Post Office: Taintor, Iowa 50253
    Name(s) of Petitioner(s): Cornelia Lambert, et al.
    Type of Determination: Closing
    Date of Filing of Appeal Papers: September 5, 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.
