SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Additions

    On August 2, 2002, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (67 FR 50416) of proposed 
additions to the Procurement List. After consideration of the material 
presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit agencies 
to provide the product and service and impact of the additions on the 
current or most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that 
the product 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 product and service 
to the Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the product and 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 product and service proposed for addition 
to the Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following product and service are added to the 
Procurement List:

Deletion

    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 product to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the product 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 product proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
    After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the committee 
has determined that the product listed below is no longer suitable for 
procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 
51-2.4.
    Accordingly, the following product is deleted from the Procurement
