SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 29 and July 27, 2001, the Committee 
for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published 
notices (66 FR 34612 and 39142) 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 service and impact of the additions on the current or most recent 
contractors, the Committee has determined that the commodities and 
service 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 
service to the Government.
    2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current 
contractors for the commodities and service.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the commodities and 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 and service proposed for 
addition to the Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following commodities and service are hereby added 
to the Procurement List:

Commodities

those contracts.
