SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Additions

    On March 12, 2004, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notices (69 FR 11833) of proposed 
additions to the Procurement List. After consideration of the material 
presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit agencies 
to provide the products and services and impact of the additions and 
deletion on the current or most recent contractors, the Committee has 
determined that the products and services listed below are suitable for 
procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and CFR 
51-2.4.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification

    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 products and 
services to the Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing 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 
additions and deletion to the Procurement List.
