SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On August 1, 2008, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (73 F.R. 44960-44961) of
proposed additions to the Procurement List.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the service and
impact of the additions on the current or most recent contractors, the
Committee has determined that the services listed
[[Page 55813]]
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 service to the
Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the service 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 service proposed for addition to the
Procurement List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement
List:

After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the Committee
has determined that the products listed below are no longer suitable
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41
