    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    On November 22, December 6, and December 20, 2002, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (67 FR 70401, 72640, and 77926) 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. 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.

    Accordingly, the following services are added to the Procurement List:

    Services

    NPA: Skookum Educational Programs, Port Townsend, Washington.
