U A Postal Pak is a collapsible cardboard container designed to transport parcels between BMCs. A
‘Postal Pak Network’ has been designed to facilttate the transportation of empty Postal Paks from a
surplus facility to a deficit facility in order to balance the supply of Postal Paks within the Network. Postal
Paks are used only in Inter-BMC transportation
Thus Inter-BMC machinable parcels will be efficiently
loaded, unloaded, and transported in Postal Paks between BMCs.
y Sort-related includes costs associated with dumping containers, sack sorting and sack shake out, (i.e.,
inducting parcels) and with tending container loaders and sack and lie operations (i.e., sweeping
runouts).

* This cost summary describes the cost of processing NPECR Basic letters projected to qualify for and migrate
to tie Nonprofit Automation 5-Digit category. All such migrating letters will destinate at sites with DBCSs,
because Automation NPECR Basic is available at all other sites. An adjustment to reflect the NPECR Basic
letter dropship profile is performed in Exhibit USPS99D. The cost of delivering DPS letters and non-DPS
letters is reweighted below to reflect the higher percentage of DPS.
