SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 8, 1999, February 4, and March 3, 
17, 24, and 31, 2000, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notices (64 FR 54862 and 65 FR 
5492, 11548, 14532, 15897, and 17255) of proposed additions to the 
Procurement List. After consideration of the material presented to it 
concerning capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the 
commodities and services and impact of the additions on the current or 
most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the 
commodities 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 commodities and 
services to the Government.
    2. The action will not 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. 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.
    Accordingly, the following commodities and services are hereby 
added to the Procurement List:
