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:

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. If approved, 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.
