Customers and employees can view, download, and print the price tables. Notice 123 can also be found in this Postal Bulletin starting on page 1.

First-Class Mail

The increase for First-Class Mail (including First-Class Mail International) items is 3.8 percent on average. The additional-ounce price for all retail letters, flats, and pack­ages remains 17 cents, and for automation and presort letters, the additional-ounce price remains 12.5 cents. We also maintain the 2.2-cent difference between 5- and 3–digit automation letter prices. The surcharge for retail and presort nonmachinable letters remains 20 cents and applies to all nonmachinable letters weighing up to 3.5 ounces. The surcharge for nonmachinable and nonbarcoded parcels not prepared in 5-digit/scheme sacks remains 5 cents. An Intelligent Mail® barcode (IMb) incentive of 0.3 cents will be available starting November 29 for automation letters and flats prepared and mailed using the full-service option.

We align the standards for commercial machinable and automation letters so that machinable letters have the same physical characteristics as automation letters, with the exception of a qualifying barcode. All sortation levels for automation letters are optional with customers paying for the level of sortation they choose. Required sortation for automation letters would begin at the mixed automated area distribution center (AADC) level. Five-digit/scheme, 3–digit/scheme, and AADC sortation levels will be optional, except when claiming the corresponding prices.

Automation flats must bear a delivery point POSTNET™ barcode or IMb encoded with the correct delivery point routing code. There are no changes to the preparation of automation flats — and the 5-digit/scheme level remains optional, except when claiming the 5-digit price.

See page 1 of the Price List for First-Class Mail retail prices and page 10 for commercial prices.

First-Class Mail International

The number of country price groups for letters, flats, and packages remains at nine, and the price groups for post­cards expands from two to three. There will be separate prices for postcards and 1-ounce letters to Canada (75 cents) and Mexico (79 cents). The price for all other countries will be 98 cents.

See page 28 of the Price List for First-Class Mail Inter­national prices.

Periodicals

The increase for Periodicals mail is 4 percent on aver­age. Nearly all Periodicals will experience modest price increases, and there are no structural changes to prices. Publications authorized as classroom and nonprofit, and those publications meeting the limited circulation criteria, will still be eligible for a 5 percent discount off the total Outside-County postage, excluding postage for advertis­ing pounds, Ride-Along pieces, and Repositionable Notes (RPNs). The price for RPNs with In-County publications is reduced to 0.5 cent each, and for Outside-County publica­tions, RPNs remain 1.5 cents each. The price for a Ride-Along piece increases to 16.5 cents for both In-County and Outside-County publications. The fees associated with Periodicals also increase. Automation flats must bear a delivery point POSTNET barcode or IMb encoded with the correct delivery point routing code.

Currently, Periodicals are required to receive address correction notifications at a cost of 25 cents for electronic and 50 cents for manual notifications. Electronic notifica­tions will increase to 26 cents each. By adopting the full-service option of Intelligent Mail, publications qualify for no-fee address correction service (ACS). Effective November 29, an IMb price incentive of 0.1 cents will be available for automation and carrier route letters and flats when prepared and mailed at the full-service option.

See page 24 of the Price List for Periodicals prices.

Standard Mail

The increase for Standard Mail items is 3.8 percent on average. There are no structural changes to the prices for letters and flats. As with First-Class Mail items, we align the standards for machinable and automation letters so that machinable letters have the same physical characteristics as automation letters, with the exception of a qualifying barcode. All sortation levels for automation letters are optional, with customers paying for the level of sortation they choose. Required sortation for automation letters would begin at the mixed AADC level. Five-digit/scheme, 3-digit/scheme, and AADC sortation levels will be optional, except when claiming the corresponding prices. For machinable letters, we also make the AADC sortation level optional, except when claiming the AADC price. Nonma­chinable letters weighing more than 3.3 ounces will now pay the corresponding nonautomation flats prices. Auto­mation flats must bear a delivery point POSTNET barcode or IMb encoded with the correct delivery point routing code. There are no changes to the preparation of Standard Mail automation flats.

An IMb incentive of 0.1 cent will be available November 29 for automation letters and flats, as well as basic and high density carrier route flats prepared and mailed at the full-service option.

Saturation Incentives: To encourage volume growth and continued use of saturation Standard Mail letters and flats, the Postal Service implements an incentive program for saturation mailers who increase their saturation letters or flats volume. This increase can result from growth in total mailed volume or growth within a defined market. Mailers wishing to participate must submit a letter requesting par­ticipation to their district manager, Business Mail Entry no later than June 11, 2009. For additional information, see the February 23, 2009, Federal Register, or contact your dis­trict Business Mail Entry office.

Irregular Parcels and Not Flat-Machinable Pieces

We are revising the price categories and qualifications for all irregular parcels and not flat-machinable (NFM) pieces weighing less than 6 ounces. These changes will reduce the number of containers in a mailing, better align the price categories with efficient processing for parcel-shaped pieces, and provide increased opportunities for mailers, including destination delivery unit (DDU) prices and additional mail volumes that qualify for destination sectional center facility (DSCF) and destination bulk mail center (DBMC) prices. The surcharge for nonbarcoded par­cels and NFMs not prepared in 5-digit/scheme sacks or pallets increases to 7 cents.

Since automated package processing systems located in our plants run multi 3-digit SCF schemes, new SCF sor­tation and prices replace (single) 3-digit sortation and prices. In addition, BMC and mixed BMC sortation and prices replace ADC and mixed ADC sortation and prices. For mailings prepared in sacks, SCF prices are based on 10 or more pounds of mail for the multi 3-digit SCFs in DMM L005. BMC prices are based on 10 or more pounds of mail for the BMCs in DMM L601, and when claiming DBMC prices, the auxiliary service facilities (ASFs) in DMM L602. For mailings prepared on pallets (and in pallet boxes), prices are based on 250 or more pounds of mail on pallets prepared for DBMC, DSCF, and DDU prices, and 200 or more pounds of mail on BMC pallets prepared for entry at the origin postal facility.

Mixed BMC prices have no minimums and will require two separations; mailers “divide” remaining parcels into an appropriate origin BMC sack(s) or pallet based on the BMC serving the entry postal facility using DMM L601, followed by traditional mixed BMC sacks or pallets. In certain situa­tions based on volumes and densities there may not be parcels remaining following preparation of origin BMC sacks or pallets.

In addition, all mailings prepared for 5-digit, SCF, and BMC prices will be limited to mailings also prepared for and claimed at DBMC, DSCF, and DDU prices. Parcels and NFMs prepared in BMC and ASF sacks or pallets for the DBMC price will continue to use DMM Exhibit 446.3.1, BMC/ASF — DBMC Price Eligibility. Except for mailings of 200 or more pounds prepared on appropriate BMC pallets, all other mailings prepared for entry at the origin postal facility will be eligible for the mixed BMC price only.

Machinable Parcels and NFMs

We are not changing the price categories for machin­able parcels and NFM pieces weighing 6 ounces or more; however, as with irregular parcels and NFMs weighing less than 6 ounces, 5-digit and BMC prices will be limited to mailings also prepared for and claimed at DBMC, DSCF, and DDU prices. Except for mailings of 200 or more pounds prepared on appropriate BMC pallets, all other mailings prepared for entry at the origin postal facility will be eligible for the mixed BMC price only.

Also as with other parcel mailings, mixed BMC prices will require two separations; origin BMC sack(s) or pallet based on the BMC serving the entry postal facility using DMM L601, followed by traditional mixed BMC sacks or pallets.

The surcharge for nonbarcoded parcels and NFMs not prepared in 5-digit/scheme sacks or pallets increases to 7 cents.

Additional Items

Within Standard Mail service, eligible nonprofit organi­zations continue to pay prices that are 40 percent lower on average than the prices for regular Standard Mail service.

Beginning January 4, 2010, the Move Update noncom­pliance charge will be 7 cents per piece for Standard Mail mailings that do not comply with the Move Update stan­dards implemented November 23, 2008.

Standard Mail prices begin on page 11 of the Price List.

Package Services Mail and Parcel Select

Package Services mail consists of retail Parcel Post, Bound Printed Matter, Library Mail, and Media Mail items. The increase for Package Services products averages 3.8 percent.

There are three categories within Parcel Select not included in the January 18 price changes: BMC and OBMC Presort and Barcoded Nonpresort. Overall, Parcel Select prices increase by an additional 0.5 of 1 percent.

We are simplifying the pricing structure for retail Parcel Post, Parcel Select BMC and OBMC Presort, and Parcel Select Barcoded Nonpresort mail. We are replacing the separate price categories for Inter-BMC/ASF and Intra-BMC/ASF with a single Parcel Post category based on weight and zone. We also eliminate the Parcel Post nonma­chinable surcharges. This aligns Parcel Post prices and zones with other classes of mail. See page 4 of the Price List for retail Parcel Post prices, and page 16 for Parcel Select prices.

For Bound Printed Matter flats, an IMb incentive of 0.1 cent will be available November 29 for presorted and carrier route flats prepared and mailed at the full-service option.

See page 20 of the Price List for Library Mail and Media Mail, and page 21 for Bound Printed Matter prices.

Extra Services and Other Fees

Extra Services include Post Office boxes and caller ser­vice fees, Certified Mail™ service, return receipts, Delivery Confirmation™ and Signature Confirmation™ services, Registered Mail™ service, and insurance. It also includes ancillary services such as address correction notification fees.

Certified Mail items increase 10 cents, as well as the prices for return receipt service requested at the time of mailing. There are modest increases to the Delivery Confir­mation service fees, and we continue to offer the no-fee electronic option included in the price for certain Priority Mail and Parcel Select Destination Entry packages.

A significant portion of Address Change Service (ACS™) will be incorporated into the full-service option of Intelligent Mail. Customers are reminded that beginning May 18, the Intelligent Mail full-service option available to automation letters and flats, carrier route letters, and certain carrier route flats will provide no-fee address cor­rection service as well as “start-the-clock” information. For pieces not eligible under the Intelligent Mail full-service option, the first two notices for One Code ACS® for First–Class Mail letters will be 2 cents each, and additional notices will be 8 cents each. The first two notices for Stan­dard Mail letters will be 5 cents each, and additional notices will be 20 cents each. Electronic address correction notifications increase to 10 cents for First-Class Mail items and 26 cents for all other mail. The price for manual address correction notifications remains 50 cents. The Confirm® pricing structure will change with the addition of a new lower-priced Bronze subscription level, to compli­ment the current Silver, Gold, and Platinum subscription levels.

There are minimal increases to Post Office box and caller service fees, and all Post Office boxes and caller ser­vices will maintain their current fee groups. New fees apply only to new rentals and renewals. Current Post Office box holders, and customers paying caller service fees, are not required to pay the new fees until their current rental period expires and it is time to renew. Post Office box and caller service fees may be paid for no more than two semiannual periods at a time.

All annual mailing and permit fees increase to $185, and all annual account maintenance fees will be $585. The quarterly fee for high-volume Qualified Business Reply Mail (QBRM) letters increases to $1,925. There will be modest increases to all BRM per-piece fees, including new frac­tional per-piece fees for high-volume BRM — $0.083; basic QBRM — $0.052; as well as high-volume QBRM — $0.007. See page 37 of the Price List. Remember, new annual fees apply only to first-time payments and renewals. Customers with current annual fees paid will pay the new fees at renewal. Annual fees may be renewed only for the next 12 months and only during the last 60 days of the current service period.

Premium Forwarding Service (PFS) prices will increase — the enrollment fee increases to $15, and the weekly reshipment charge goes to $13.95. The new weekly reship charges apply only to first-time users and renewals after May 11.

See page 35 of the Price List for a complete list of Extra Services prices and other fees.

Additional International Changes

In addition to First-Class Mail International (see page 28), prices for International Priority Airmail Service (IPA), International Surface Air Lift Service (ISAL), and Extra Ser­vices, will also change May 11. We have expanded the number of country price groups for IPA and ISAL from 9 to 15 — including 10 “country-specific” groups, and 5 multiple-country price groups.

IPA meets the needs of international business mailers for a service that is faster and more economical than First-Class Mail International service. Prices for IPA increase by 6.3 percent on average. Incentives based on volume offered through customized agreements continue to be available for IPA customers. ISAL provides expedited dis­patch and transportation for all types of First-Class Mail International items. ISAL prices increase by 3.5 percent on average. Volume incentives are available through custom­ized agreements.

See page 29 of the Price List for IPA prices, and page 30 for ISAL prices.

International Extra Services fees maintain their correla­tion to the fees for those services that are similar to domes­tic extra services. See page 39 of the Price List.

Forever Stamp Price Change Instructions for Stamps by Mail Orders

The Postal Service’s™ new single-piece 1-ounce price for First-Class Mail® items is 44 cents, effective 12:01 a.m., Mon­day, May 11, 2009. All Post Offices™, postal retail units, and Stamps by Mail® fulfillment centers must increase the value of each Forever Stamp™ in their inventories prior to opening for business on Monday, May 11, 2009. All Forever Stamps on hand are revaluated to the new First-Class Mail single-piece 1-ounce price of 44 cents each.

The new First-Class Mail single-piece 1-ounce price may affect Stamps by Mail Forever Stamp orders that are in transit. If a Stamps by Mail Forever Stamp order is mailed (postmarked) or the order form and check is dated before Monday, May 11, 2009, with the old First-Class Mail single-piece 1-ounce price, accept the order with the old price and process the trans­action as follows:

Nonprofit Envelopes Revaluation Instructions

New Selling Price for Box of 500 Nonprofit Envelopes

Boxes of 500 nonprofit envelopes are recorded in inventory at the old price; therefore, they must be revalued. To increase the value, stock custodians and retail associates (RAs) must count the number of boxes of 500 nonprofit envelopes in their inventories and multiply by the corresponding increase amount to compute value of the increase in accountability.

The May 2009 Price Change software release provides updates, corrections, and revisions for the following data collection systems:

n City Carrier Cost System (CCCS).

n Rural Carrier Cost System (RCCS).

n In-Office Cost System (IOCS).

n Origin–Destination Information System — Revenue, Pieces, and Weight (ODIS-RPW).

n Transportation Cost System (TRACS).

n System for International Revenue and Volume Outbound — International Origin–Destination Infor­mation System (SIRVO-IODIS).

n System for International Revenue and Volume Inbound (SIRVI).

We will automatically distribute the software release to Statistical Programs laptops connected to the Postal Rout­ing Network. We will provide a CD for sites using a dial-up connection. Statistical Programs employees will be notified of the software release, software release notes, and the update CD via e-mail and as a news item on the Statistical Programs webpage on the Corporate Intranet.

Statistical Programs employees observe employee work activities and sample live mail at randomly selected points throughout the postal system. Local Operations and Customer Services employees can assist us with the price change by:

n Providing accurate information when data collectors conduct IOCS telephone readings of employee activities.

n Helping data collectors locate employees and mail in Post Offices and plants.

n Informing the district manager of Statistical Pro­grams about changes in mail processing, delivery operations, and dispatch schedules.

Data from our systems is used to set prices, fulfill regu­latory reporting requirements, measure workloads, detect fraud, prepare budgets, and make operational decisions. Cooperation of all employees is critical to ensure the integ­rity and accuracy of statistical sampling.

New Domestic and International Postage Statements

All postage statements are revised to implement the May 11, 2009, domestic and international price, fee, and classification changes. All statements are available at www.usps.com/forms in Adobe PDF (print-only) format. The new statements are dated May 2009. Mailers will con­tinue using current statements for mailings submitted for acceptance and verification through May 10.

Effective Monday, May 11, mailers must use May 2009 editions of postage statements (or approved facsimiles). All previous versions are obsolete as of May 11, 2009, and must not be used. The entry office postmaster must approve all facsimile postage statements not approved under the Presort Accuracy Validation and Evaluation (PAVE™) or Manifest Analysis and Certification (MAC™) programs.

A future Postal Bulletin will announce ordering proce­dures when the new statements are available at the Mate­rial Distribution Center.

Postage statements can be printed locally and com­pleted manually. Wherever possible, postmasters and managers of Business Mail Entry should encourage their customers and staff to use the website to obtain state­ments. Managers of Business Mail Entry, working with dis­trict and area implementation coordinators, must ensure that all Post Offices™ and detached mail units within their district’s service areas have access to all statements (domestic and international) to satisfy the needs of local mailers. District offices must supply postage statements to Post Offices without Internet access.

Mailers with questions regarding the use and availability of postage statements should contact the Post Office where they enter their mailings. Employees with questions should contact their district’s manager of Business Mail Entry.

Price Change Counter Card

We are providing each Post Office™ and contract postal unit with price change counter cards to inform customers about the new prices. Quantities shipped were based on office size. The counter card is the only price change–specific material offices will receive.

Display the counter card beginning April 10, 2009, by placing it on the counter at your busiest retail windows. Remove all counter cards on May 31, 2009, as shown on the card.

This distribution is one-time only, and no additional counter cards are available for reordering or reshipment.

Exhibit A

[Please check appropriate block prior to mailing it to customers.]

Dear Stamps by Mail Customer:

The Postal Service™ has changed prices for mailing services effective Monday, May 11, 2009.

We received your Stamps by Mail® order after the price change. Rather than return your order, we have tried to ful­fill it to the extent possible.

1. Your order was in transit prior to new price effective date and,

( ) You ordered Forever Stamps™ only. We have ful­filled your order at no extra charge.

( ) You ordered Forever Stamps and other stamps. We have fulfilled Forever Stamps at no extra charge and fulfilled the request for other stamps at the new prices to the value of the total payment.

( ) You ordered stamps other than Forever Stamps. We have fulfilled your order at the new prices to the value of the total payment.

2. Your order was mailed after May 11:

( ) You ordered Forever Stamps only. Due to short­age of payment, we have not fulfilled your order.

( ) You ordered Forever Stamps and/or other stamps. We have fulfilled your order at the new prices to the value of the total payment.

Thank you for the continued use of our Stamps by Mail program. We look forward to serving you in the future.

Sincerely,

 

Retail Access Channels: Stamps by Mail — Brochure Information for Retail Managers and Postmasters
