SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published pursuant to 41

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 to 
procure the commodities and service 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 commodities and 
service to the Government.
    2. The action does not appear to have a severe economic impact on 
current contractors for the commodities and service.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the commodities and service 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 service proposed for 
addition to the Procurement List.
    Comments on this certification are invited. Commenters should

are providing additional information.
