SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published pursuant to 41

U.S.C. 47(a) (2) and 41 CFR 51-2-3. Its purpose is to provide

Additions

If the Committee approves the proposed additions, all entities of

the Federal Government (except as otherwise indicated) will be required

to procure the commodity and services listed below from nonprofit

agencies employing persons who are blind or have other severe

disabilities.

I certify that the following action will not have a significant

impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors

considered for this certification were:

1. The action will not result in any additional reporting,

recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other

than the small organizations that will furnish the commodity and

services to the Government.

2. The action does not appear to have a severe economic impact on

current contractors for the commodity and services.

3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish

the commodity and services to the Government.

4. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would

accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46-

48c) in connection with the commodity and services proposed for

addition to the Procurement List.

Comments on this certification are invited. Commenters should

identify the statement(s) underlying the certification on which they

are providing additional information.
