Title: Periodic Reporting Exceptions 
Abstract: Pursuant to section 3652(e) of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006, the Commission has completed a comprehensive rulemaking addressing service measure performance and customer satisfaction reporting on the part of the United States Postal Service (Postal Service). These regulations allow the Postal Service to request that a product or component of a product be excluded from service performance measurement reporting if certain conditions (set out in the regulations) are met. The Commission has established rulemaking to address the Postal Service's formal mail request for semi-permanent exceptions for service performance measurement of Standard Mail High Density, Saturation, and Carrier Route Parcels, Inbound International Surface Parcel Post (at Universal Postal Union Rates), hard-copy Address Correction Service, various Special Services, Within County Periodicals, and various negotiated service agreements. This rulemaking will assess the need to balance the responsibilities of the Commission and the Postal Service under the PAEA with time and resource constraints, and thereby, advance an efficient implementation of the 2006 law.
