Addition

    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the service and 
impact of the addition on the current or most recent contractors, the 
Committee has determined that the service listed below is 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 service to the 
Government.
    2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current 
contractors for the service.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the 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 service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following service is hereby added to the 
Procurement List: Parking Facility Attendant, Department of Veterans 
Affairs Medical Center, John D. Dingell VA Medical Center, 4646 John R 
Street, Detroit, Michigan.

    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 service.
3. The action may result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the 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 deleted from the Procurement List.
After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the Committee 
has determined that the commodities 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 are hereby deleted from the
