SUMMARY: The Committee has received proposals to add to the Procurement
List a commodity, military resale commodities and services to be
furnished by nonprofit agencies employing persons who are blind or have
other severe disabilities.
COMMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED ON OR BEFORE: April 4, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely
Disabled, Crystal Square 3, suite 403, 1735 Jefferson Davis Highway,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Beverly Milkman (703) 603-7740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published pursuant to 41
U.S.C. 47(a) (2) and 41 CFR 51-2-3. Its purpose is to provide
interested persons an opportunity to submit comments on the possible
impact of the proposed actions.
If the Committee approves the proposed additions, all entities of
the Federal Government (except as otherwise indicated) will be required
to procure the commodity, military resale commodities and services
listed below from nonprofit agencies employing persons who are blind or
have other severe disabilities.
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 commodity, military
resale commodities and services to the Government.
2. The action does not appear to have a severe economic impact on
current contractors for the commodity, military resale commodities and
services.
3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the commodity, military resale 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 commodity, military resale commodities and
services proposed for addition to the Procurement List.
Comments on this certification are invited. Commenters should
identify the statement(s) underlying the certification on which they
are providing additional information.
