Docket No. R2000-1
NOTICE OF THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE
REGARDING ATTORNEY/WITNESS ASSIGNMENTS
Inter-venom are reminded that all inquiries concerning the Postal Service’s
Request and testimony in this docket which arise outside of the formal discovery
process should be directed through Postal Service counsel.
For the convenience of all concerned, the Postal Service submits the
attached list which identifies those of its attorneys who have been designated to
represent the witnesses whose testimony had been filed in support of the Postal
Service’s Request. As always, interveners unable to contact the attorney
responsible for representing a particular witness should not hesitate to contact
Chief Counsel Dan Foucheaux (202) 268-2989.
Consistent with past practice, the Postal Service plans to make its
witnesses available for informal technical conferences at Postal Service
headquarters. Such conferences, intended as an aid to the discovery process, will
be scheduled in accordance with the mutual convenience of interested parties and
the Postal Service, to the extent possible. Further information on technical
conference will be available shortly. Members of the Commission’s technical staff
will be invited to attend all technical conferences.
Respectfully submitted,
UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE
By its attorneys:
