Summary

This affects businesses and customers who use these special mail options, but no price changes are announced yet. It’s a chance to weigh in on new or updated postal products that could shake up how mail gets handled.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Opportunity to comment on postal contract
The Postal Service filed Amendment Three to Priority Mail & USPS Ground Advantage Contract 148 on July 22, 2026. If you use these negotiated competitive mail services, you can submit comments to the Postal Regulatory Commission through July 30, 2026; the filing does not announce any price changes.
Some product changes skip public comment
The Commission says requests to add or amend a standardized distinct competitive product are reviewed in a summary proceeding under 39 CFR 3041.325(c)(2) and 3041.505(f)(1), and in those cases the Commission does not appoint a Public Representative or request public comment. That means certain negotiated-service variations may be handled without a public comment period.
