    Additions
    
        If the Committee approves the proposed additions, all entities of 
    the Federal Government (except as otherwise indicated) will be required 
    to procure the 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 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. Comments on this certification are invited. 
    Commenters should identify the statement(s) underlying the
