Additions

the Federal Government (except as otherwise indicated) will be required 
to procure the services listed below from nonprofit agencies employing 
persons who are blind or have other severe disabilities. I certify that 
the following action will not have a significant impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. The major factors considered for

recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other 
than the small organizations that will furnish the services to the 
Government.

the services to the Government.
    3. 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 services proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List. Comments on this certification are invited. 
Commenters should identify the statement(s) underlying the
