Three New USPS Competitive Deals
The Postal Service filed requests to add three new standardized competitive mail products: PM-GA Contract 977, PM-GA Contract 978, and PM-GA Contract 979. The Commission accepted those filings on May 5, 2026. These are negotiated service agreements for Competitive products and may change options available to businesses and customers who use competitive mail services.
No Public Comment For These Filings
The filings to add the standardized distinct products are being reviewed in summary proceedings under 39 CFR 3041.325(c)(2) and 39 CFR 3041.505(f)(1). For such summary proceedings, the Commission does not appoint a Public Representative or request public comment on the requests.
