On July 21, 2006, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (71 FR 41415-41417) of proposed additions to the Procurement List.

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 products and service to the Government.

2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish the products and service to the Government.
