SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    On December 27, 2002, the Committee for Purchase From People Who 
Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (67 FR 79045) of 
proposed addition to the Procurement List. After consideration of the 
material presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit 
agency to provide the service and impact of the addition on the current 
or most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the 
service listed below is 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: Rehabilitation Support Services, Central 
Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System, North Little Rock, Arkansas.
    NPA: Pathfinder, Inc., Jacksonville, Arkansas.
    Contract Activity: Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System, 
North Little Rock, Arkansas. 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.
