Federal Government identified in the notice will be required to procure 
the service 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 this certification were:
    1. If approved, 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. If approved, 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. Comments on this certification are invited. 
Commenters should identify the statement(s) underlying the
