PRC to Hold Public Meetings to Discuss USPS Service Standards
On Monday, September 24, 2007, the [Postal Regulatory]Commission will host two public meetings related to implementation of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006. Information obtained at these events will assist the Commission in meeting statutory requirements for consultation with the Postal Service on development of modern service standards. At the first meeting, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., representatives of the Mailers Technical Advisory Committee (MTAC) will brief the Commission on final MTAC workgroup recommendations to the Postal Service on service standards and service measurement systems. This meeting will be broadcast live and will be accessible via the Internet from the Commission’s Web site (http://www.prc.gov/). At the second meeting, which will begin at 1:30 p.m., there will be a discussion of retail service measurement and related issues with representatives of the American Postal Workers Union. Both events will be held in the Commission’s main conference room and both will be open to the public.

Hell, the only reason the USPS gets 96% or better on overnight service is because the overnite delivery areas have been halved. The more automated mail becomes the smaller the overnite area becomes. If the same overnite area was the same as 20 years ago, the PO would be doing about 50%, not 96%
