reporting, recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small
entities other than the small organizations that will furnish the
products to the Government.
2. If approved, the action will result in authorizing small
entities to furnish the products 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 proposed for addition to the
Procurement List.
