I certify that the following action will not have a significant

recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other
than the small organizations that will furnish the commodities and
services to the Government.

current contractors for the commodities and services.
3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the 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 commodities and services proposed for
addition to the Procurement List.
