SUMMARY: This action adds to the Procurement List commodities and
services to be furnished by nonprofit agencies employing persons who
are blind or have other severe disabilities.
EFFECTIVE DATE: January 13, 1997.
ADDRESSES: Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Beverly Milkman, (703) 603-7740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 27, October 18 and 25, 1996,
the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely
Disabled published notices (61 F.R. 50804, 54417 and 55268) of proposed
additions to the Procurement List.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the commodities
and services and impact of the additions on the current or most recent
contractors, the Committee has determined that the commodities and
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 commodities and
services to the Government.
2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current
contractors for the commodities and services.
3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the commodities and services to the Government.
4. 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 commodities and services proposed for
addition to the Procurement List.
Accordingly, the following commodities and services are hereby
added to the Procurement List:
