SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 5, 2000, the Committee for Purchase 
From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published a notice (65 
FR 26178) of proposed addition to the Procurement List. 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:

Operation of the Alternate Format Center, Department of Education, Mary 
Switzer Building, 330 C Street, SW, Washington, DC

    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.

Louis R. Bartalot,
Deputy Director (Operations).
