SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Addition: On January 10, 2003, the Committee 
for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published 
notice (68 FR 1434) 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 addition on the current or most recent contractor, 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: Janitorial/Custodial, U.S. Coast Guard 
Cutter Aspen, Yerba Buena Island, San Francisco, California.
NPA: Toolworks, Inc., San Francisco, California.
Contract Activity: U.S. Coast Guard Integrated Support Command, 
Alameda, California.

    Deletions:
    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 may not result in any additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities.
    2. The action may 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 deleted from the 
Procurement List.
    After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the committee 
has determined that the product and service listed below are 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 and service are deleted from the 
Procurement List:
