SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 24, 1997, the Committee for
Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published
notice (62 F.R. 55390) 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:
