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 does not appear to have a severe economic impact on 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.
