SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On May 17, June 28, and July 5, 2002, the Committee for Purchase
From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (67
FR 35096, 43482, and 44808) of proposed additions to and deletions
from the Procurement List.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the product
and services and impact of the additions on the current or most
recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the product
and services listed below are suitable for procurement by the
Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4. 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 product and
services to the Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to
furnish the product and services to the Government.
3. 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 product and services proposed for
addition to the Procurement List.
