SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 24, and October 22, 1999, the 
Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled 
published notices (64 F.R. 51736, 57031 and 57032) of proposed 
additions to and deletions from the Procurement List:

Additions

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

Commodity

    Southern Maryland District Courthouse, 6500 Cherrywood Lane,

    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.

Deletions

    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 may not result in any additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities.
    2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on future 
contractors for the commodity and services.
    3. The action may result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the commodity 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 commodity and services deleted from the 
Procurement List.
    After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the Committee 
has determined that the commodities and service listed below are no 
longer suitable for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 
U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4.
    Accordingly, the following commodities and service are hereby 
deleted from the Procurement List:
