qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the services, fair market 
price, and impact of the additions on the current or most recent 
contractors, the Committee has determined that the 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 services to the 
Government.
    2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current 
contractors for the services.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the 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 services proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following services are hereby added to the 
Procurement List:

Acquisition & Distribution of D-Cell Batteries (6135-00-835-7210), 
Defense General Supply Center, Richmond, Virginia
Grounds Maintenance, Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, 801 
South Marion Street, Lake City, Florida.

    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.
