SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    On June 7, 2002, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (67 FR 39337) of proposed 
additions 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 additions on the current or 
most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the 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 service to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the service 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 service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement 
List:

Service

    Service Type/Location: Medical Transcription, Federal Bureau of 
Prisons, Greenville, Illinois.
    NPA: The Lighthouse of Houston, Houston, Texas.
    Contract Activity: Federal Bureau of Prisons, Greenville, Illinois.
    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.
