ACTION: Additions to the Procurement List.

SUMMARY: This action adds to the Procurement List commodity and
services to be furnished by nonprofit agencies employing persons who
are blind or have other severe disabilities.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 29, 1997.
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: On June 27 and July 11, 1997, the Committee
for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published
notices (62 F.R. 34686 and 37192) of proposed additions to the
Procurement List.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the commodity and
services and impact of the additions on the current or most recent
contractors, the Committee has determined that the commodity 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 commodity and
services to the Government.
2. The action does not appear to have a severe economic impact on
current contractors for the commodity and services.
3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the commodity 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 and services proposed for
addition to the Procurement List.
Accordingly, the following commodity and services are hereby added
to the Procurement List:
Commodity
Bag, Vacuum Cleaner, Disposable
M.R. 1000 thru 1008

This action does not affect current contracts awarded prior to the
effective date of this addition or options that may be exercised under
those contracts.
Beverly L. Milkman,
Executive Director.
