SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On September 17, 2004, the Committee for Purchase From People Who
Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (69 FR 56037) of
proposed additions to the Procurement List. After consideration of the
material presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit
agencies to provide the services and impact of the additions on the
current or most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that
the services listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal
Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 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 services to the
Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the 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 services proposed for addition to the
Procurement List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following services are added to the Procurement
