reporting, recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small

entities to furnish the products 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 products and services proposed for addition
to the Procurement List. Comments on this certification are invited.
